That is exactly why I like to eat there is for their French Onion soup. Sorry I haven't been on here for a couple of days. I have been sick and not feeling up to anything but laying down and watching Netflix.

Hope you're feeling better.

I swear every time someone mentions "tea and crumpets". I remember the TANK GIRL comics and the movie.

I hope that is a fond memory.

This is the stove I want for my kitchen, it will complete the retro kitchen. The Aqua one.

My mom had a stove like those...but white. Lots of storage and built in backsplash, but it was so old that only two burners worked. She refused to replace it because she was so used to it.

 

[TomP]

Thanks. I just felt so bad for her. First, she gets trolled. Then the trolls try to call her a troll. And then they try to say that she's mentally ill. At that point, I felt like someone should stand up for that poor woman who I don't think understood the level of crazy that she was talking to.

Although Jen's golden post nearly made me spit out my drink.

I really wanted to be able to PM her and tell her to get out while the getting out was good. I think she isn't too experienced with people like "that guy" but she managed to hold her own. Seems like a sweet lady.

 

[TomP]

Nope, regular sized stove. It's just the photo angle, methinks.

And yes, that is ketchup. Hey, it's only been a few years that I've stopped putting ketchup on cabbage rolls.
Is ketchup with your grilled cheese not a thing in the States?
(I do know that lots of places south of the border don't put vinegar on their fries.)

I've never put ketchup on grilled cheese, but I have put a slice of tomato on them after grilling. Love vinegar on fries.

Oh Dear. I've been so busy I've missed huge chunks of this thread multiple times this week which might be a blessing that I haven't had time to read that thread. I'm surprised it isn't locked.

I've been reading it (as I said before, I love watching fools) and giving some likes but I refuse to post, hoping the thread will die.

Ha! That's only a little bit. Around here, you still wouldn't have been able to see any of the brown fence--snow would be packed in up to the top!

As for Alaska, they're having unseasonal weather this year, with little snow. I was watching the national news yesterday, and it was reported that they had to push up the starting point of the Iditarod hours north of the original point, just to get enough snow. Not sure if that's happened before.

clearly the climate change are moving the ice/snow/rain patterns out of the normal areas.

Ketchup I put on burgers. Grilled cheese is left in it's natural state--no embellishments needed!! And vinegar on fries?! I don't like vinegar. I put ketchup on fries, and a little salt. Canada has some odd food condiment pairings . . .

I put a little ketchup on burgers and hotdogs too.

my sister in the other hand.. as some really... interesting tastes.
like cream, lemon and ketchup.. ON SCRAMBLED EGGS.

Good morning all

Well, I've had the SUV for less than a week. This morning, my dad comes in and says, "Gotta go to the dealership. Your wiper blades are warped."

It's been. One. Week. Of course, the weather contributed to the demise of the wiper blades, but still.

So I am off to the dealership. And then to class.

hey! at least you will get new blades, right?

I remember a bunch of us from the office goin' to the National Home Show in Houston (Astrodome) sometime back in the mid-'90's. One of the manufacturers had their retro appliances in a very cool display that was a game/bonus/party room done in the style of a '50's diner.
It was cool...!

 

[Cesar R M]

NAPS!

I really need a nap.. havent sleep well.
seems I have sores in my troath due of coughing so much.
so.. 4 days of barely any sleep due of coughing.
but now got medicine for the itchiness on the throat... wish me luck D:

 

[Cesar R M]

I hope that is a fond memory.

its kinda hilarious movie!.
very cheesy, but very akin to the comic. (hence why many couldnt get it, since the comics make very little sense.. its just... random nosense stuff nonstop)

When I took the test to get my health insurance producer license, my boss told me that I would learn to drink coffee when studying for that test because the material was so boring. He was right that the material was incredibly boring. He was wrong about the coffee. The standing joke in the office became me with my Coke Zero. I could get huge 99 cent bottles at the grocery store which I would then bring to work. My boss would laugh, especially since I managed to drink the entire thing by the end of the day. Now that I no longer work for him, we're Facebook friends, and he still occasionally sends me a message about Coke Zero.

One of the partners here drinks the heck outta' Diet Coke all day long. Nothin' else. No water, nothin'.

 

[donaldtoo]

Hmmmm, dare I admit that I also put ketchup on a fried egg sandwich?!

Oh my. I'd never do that to my fried egg sandwich...!

 

[JenniferS]

Oh my. I'd never do that to my fried egg sandwich...!

Further proof that this is a thing up here ....
Buy an Egg McMuffin from McD's and you automatically get 3 ketchup packets.

On another note, I see some Gus & Guido's in my near future, so some ketchup-free pics will follow.

There does not appear to have been any activity since last evening. Maybe it's died of its own accord.

Never ate ketchup until I was about 20...still don't use it much. As for fried egg sammiches....mayonnaise, or as we say in the south "may-naze".
