We go to Steak & Shake some weekends when kids eat free and the patty melt is my meal.

It wasn't even a Boudin store, just one of those variety stores in most airports. It was displayed right out front, and I couldn't resist. Those were the good old days....now, I just look at bread and gain weight.

Good stuff! We ate a lot of sourdough bread when we lived in No Cal.

Welcome to the post-Disney blues....I hope you don't get sick colds blow (literally).

my family already suffering from that lol
I'm still standing.. (not literally).
My pains are more on the legs (blisters on one leg and heavy muscular pains in one of my ankles)
But I'll manage.
I'm currently doing work and processing some images.

@betty rose I can't find the post about the blue dishes but these are the ones my grandparents had. My mom still has many pieces in her china cabinet. When I first had dinner at my best friend's house many years ago they had the SAME dishes.

Where did you find July's hours?

On the touringplan crowd calendar. They had the hours, including EMH for July, but for August, it just said that EMH and park hours had not been released yet for that date and it was in grey rather than purple.

You have to pay federal AND state tax on it.

Its a flat rate in my country. for all states and federal.
example, anything you shop that is a "product". Will get 16% tax rate. (very similar to europe's VAT)

I like it for patty melts.

I love grilled turkey on rye, with cranberries. I can't have cheese or I would put it on the sandwich. Lactose intolerance stinks!.

I love Steak and Shake, I miss it from my years in Indiana. The Midwest has the best food in the world. IMHO. (I haven't been around the world) this was a slight exaggeration.

I haven't had the nerve to step on the scale yet...I will tomorrow and I have a check up at the dr this week so we will see if the scales are similar.

I hope you did much better than I did. I just wanted to be naughty, as the weather has been too cold and snowy. I know what they say, when you can't teach an old dog new tricks.

Is alimony a permanent thing in IL? Here "spousal support" (not called alimony anymore) 1 year is awarded for every 4 years of marriage. It's only permanent if the marriage lasted 20+ years.

Unless there are circumstances it is 20+ years here too but like I was speaking to the lottery winnings here is part of the total taxable income. So even if it was only 5 years of spouse support some of that lottery money would be heading to the other where an inheritance would not be.

Lucky you, I still remember the taste. I miss it so much. Good though or I would have several spare tires to remove right now!

@seahawk7 Watching the game and thinking of you. Hope they come through. I kept my fingers crossed during the Steelers game so maybe I should for Seattle too.

I was thinking of @seahawk7 too during the game. Wonder if she went?

Yes, that is it. I don't know who got it at Mom's passing. It was our special dinner dishes! Thanks for the great memories, Mom was a very good cook.

DD uses that sight a lot. It's very good for planning according to DD.

Our tax for products is 12 1/2%. In Colorado, it changes with each county. For big ticket items, like a car we go to another county with much smaller taxes.

I'm glad I'm still married.
