I don’t often buy the pot pies because they are full of vegetables and light on meat, which is what I need...protein to keep the sugar shakes away. After eating some of the cookies I made today, protein was what I needed, and I didn’t get much of it.

I can’t afford the really GOOD pot pies by Marie Callender, so I buy the Banquet for $1. Not too often, though. I prefer the frozen dinners with real meat in them, but I didn’t get any this time. I opted instead for entrees, just to see how they were. I won’t buy them again.

Not happy with myself right now. *sigh*

I’m going to take my ugly self to bed, and forget the “Beef Pot Pie” that had three little cubes of meat in it. Tomorrow is another day. I’ll wake up happy. :o|

Umm..

That wasn't beef. It was Advanced Beef Substitute. But it is a fine product coming as it did from the Nutramatic Dispenser. It is mostly harmless, so share and enjoy.. ;-)

Could have been worse. Could have been Soylent Green.

It should be. It will also be more windows than Stable 2.0.

Whatever that means.

I finally found a candidate for the cats.,

Grumpy Cat for president.

(And as an added bonus, she would be our first female president)

She has such pretty blue eyes.,

I always wished for a tree. Always. I feel like I’ve missed out on something. Not to mention deprived my kitties of a super duper toy

You can’t have a tree? Small artificial ones are sold at Walmart and hardware stores.

Our faux tree is 6 feet, I think. We’ll put it up the last weekend before Christmas, to minimize the window for the cats or Kathleen to ravage it.

No, I was brought up that Jews don’t have trees.

If I put one in my apartment my mom would think I converted.

I understand, but it’s too bad you couldn’t just tell her you wanted something colorful and cheerful.

Tell her tree is a "green earth" thingie that removes the ebil CO2 from your personal space, an organic air freshener vital to your health.

And then threaten to put some of these up.

Has to be one or the other.

Teach him that and prepare for the worst.

Bill? Why does your shirt smell of Eau de Cheddar?

We learned to make sandwiches with an iron in Girl Scouts. I think they were wrapped in aluminum foil.

Hey, moose! We were watching a recent episode of "Midsomer Murders" (with the scruffy new sergeant) last night. In one of the scenes, there was a phone like this on a table. Do people in Britain still use those?
