I bought Grandma Utz's chips today because I was excited about kettle cooked Utz chips.
After eating them and thinking "these taste odd" I realized they are cooked in lard. I'm not against lard but these were not tasty. At all.
And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Utz also makes kettle-cooked chips that aren't cooked in lard. They're not the "Grandma" ones.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
askye, ha, I love Grandma Utz's fried-in-lard kettle-cooked chips! Most of Utz's chips are cooked in sunflower oil (I think). I discovered the ones in the brown bag cooked in lard when I was doing the whole no-vegetable-oils thing.

Weird, clueless workaholic dad who can never understand he upsets people...are you sure we're not related?

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Hypothetically, if I were to visit my family, who live six hours away, and I could only see them on Sunday morning, my dad would still go to church and completely miss me. Some parents are truly clueless even when they love you.

Thanks Sail!
I like it , which is really what matters, makes me feel confident and sexy. (kinda). I never really want to wear lipstick until my hair is short and not to make myself look more feminine but because the whole short hair makes me feel sexy, wearing lipstick is sexy so then I want to.

Headhunters and cannibals to least some extent.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Argh. Finn keeps matting no matter how much I brush him. I think the next step may be taking him in to the vet to be clipped. I tried the little letter opener thing to slice through the mats, but he HATED it - I think it pulled on his skin no matter how gentle I tried to be.
I feel like a failure as a cat owner. I can tell Finn is miserable with these mats tugging at his skin, and I feel like there's nothing I can do that won't hurt him more.

Don't feel bad, my parents had a cat like that. Cobwebby fur that matted like crazy and would maul you if she even saw the letter opener or you snagged a mat. At least with the vet option, it'll be a set period of hate, mostly directed at someone else.
