The Hobbit Hole VI - And Whither Then? I Cannot Say...

Posted on 01/31/2004 9:52:08 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And Whither Then? I Cannot Say...

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

muh m-i-l's idea of chili is watery tuhmater soup with a little ground beef...

Yes, but please tell me she uses tuhmaters.

When the other chili came over, we wuz eatin' s-i-l says "oh she must use canned tuhmaters"....like it wuz a bad thing...

Told the wife her sister ain't allowed to cook at our house no more.

I suppose I will live through this. I'm kinda wondering when they are expecting me to grade stuff right now. I gotta get exams graded and final quarter grades in before noon Wednesday.... but now I've also got to do this technology needs evaluation before noon Wednesday.

I'm just gonna throw something at them I think. Maybe everyone needs the same computers we need in my CADD lab!!!

That's close to how my mom makes "chili", too.

That's about how my Mom used to make it, too. It had some chili powder in it, but mainly just tomato soup with beans and hamburger and bell peppers.

I'm guessin' it's a Midwestern thing.

Oh, yes, my mom does use real tomatoes, albeit from a can. And honestly, it's not too bad a concoction, especially after a few reheatings.

Can't say that I blame him! It's just plain nasty!

I've had my Becky stand behind me and turn a flashlight on and off into Alyson's eyes during some diaper changes. It appears that the strobe effect hypnotizes them long enough to get the mess cleaned up!

No macaroni in ours. But the rest is similar.

And, as you said, it wasn't that bad at all! Not real, maybe...but fairly tasty just the same.

But I guess it qualifies as soup rather than chili.

You haven't truly lived until the day you find your child playing with their own feces and realizing that YOU have to clean it up!

*wicked cackling*

Necessity is the mother of invention.

Desperation is the mother of truly fantastic and outlandish ideas that sometimes actually work!!!
