Glad I could help! I have to keep it in the refrigerator at all times! Pizza night sneaks up on you.

Found little frozen square basil and garlic. Easy to use, too.

Basil and mint are fun to grow. Glad you do that with your grandkids!

Malt vinegar on french fries is good.

I use white vinegar for *everything*.

Detergents give me hives, no matter how “hypoallergenic” they are, so my personal clothes get the vinegar.

Oddly enough, all my black band t shirts seem to have stopped fading, since I switched.

Have you tried the baking soda/peroxide/hot water thing yet?

OMG, it’s the best non-toxic household cleaner, ever.

I guess Tabasco Sauce wasn’t invented by a CPC (tm) (Certified Politically Correct) ethnic minority.

I’m looking forward to her book on historic LGBT cuisine.

Any writeup about the alleged “definitive” American Cuisine that does not mention grits, biscuits, or bacon, is full of baloney.

These people have never eaten at Cracker Barrel.

*ew* is right! ;^)

But then what one person likes to eat, others might not and animals are a whole other thing!

Would you please, please send Camo here for a few weeks???

I had two Tuff Sheds put in my backyard. I pulled up, oh, my gosh, so many pavers. There were giant and baby crickets everywhere!!! I was suspicious when a plant was totally defoliated here last

My youngest daughter keeps those squares so thats where my head was when you said green toothpaste. She got her tastebuds from me I guess because there are always extra unopened containers (besides an open one) in her fridge and freezer. When I visit I usually cook a few meals. Every time she stresses to me to use as many little squares as I need to make it like I do at home with fresh stuff.

Mint is a weed....I love and planted three different kinds in my herb garden and damn, if it didn’t try to take over the place!

Yikes. I should have said 20 grandkids. #21 is still a bun in the oven. But I’m so excited I mis-spoke.

You gonna pay shipping?

She’s a glutton.

I just gave her tonight’s cricket allotment and she’s *still* stalking around her vivarium, like a little Velociraptor...just in case she missed one.

Guess I could toss her a consolation waxworm, so she’ll settle down and go to bed.

:D

No, I have not, but I will look it up and try. I have been into oxi cleaners for the past few years.

I guess not, nor Bitters. LOL

That woman is not just a fraud, but a MORON who is hoodwinking even dumber people.
