Quote Of The Day

July 27, 2005

“What are you talking about? I did so give you dinner last night. The banana split was your dinner… Why, yes I do think that it was a nutritious dinner. Dairy, nuts, banana- a perfect well rounded meal. Keep complaining and tonight you’ll be eating beans out of a can with your fork, because there is no way I am cooking in this heat.”

    I hear you on that one. Thankfully my husband does the grilling outside. It is way too hot. I am not leaving my air conditioned house to do a god damn thing especially cook. So he cooks on the grill or we order out and have it delivered.

    Idea…..
    Take a pound of bacon, a dozen eggs and go out to your driveway (if it is paved that is) and drop them on it. Poof, instant breakfast for dinner!
    Also, make a jug of sun tea. It should be done in about 2 minutes flat!

    The temperature + humidity is supposed to feel like 120 today.
    That’s just crazy.

    How dare they complain???!!! LOL I have made strawberry shortcake with fresh berries several times this summer just for dinner. My 7 yo had the nerve to complain - to him fruit is as offensive as vegetables. Too bad for him, but good for me, I got to eat most of what he left lol

    You’d give them a fork for the beans? Isn’t that just making unnecessary washing up?

    Annalise, currently wearing jeans, a sweater, a jacket and socks … and wondering what winter here will be like …

    Perfectly acceptable dinner. Wish I had thought of it. Most likely much more nutritious than the hot dogs & potato chips my kids wanted. No, we had leftover spaghetti. It has cooled down 25 degrees here today. Hope some relief is headed your way!

    Annalise,
    You are so right. Fingers! They’ll be scooping out beans with their fingers!
