Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

Nice shoes.

His shoes are like yours, but yours are red. Both are fun, but I think I like the red ones better.

You lost me at eggplant. I do not like the aubergines.

Usually, I'm not a fan of eggplant. However, if it's sliced very thin (that's the key right there--thin), breaded and fried, and put with melted cheese on top and tomato sauce, I'm in!! Your feta wrap sounds like something I might enjoy as well.

I usually don't care for eggplant either, but it was sliced very thin and looked like it had some seasonings (or had been marinated), so I thought I would try it. It wasn't on the appetizer buffet so I didn't have anything to lose. And it was good.

Last food pic, I promise.
Treats for the boys:


There is nothing better than high end gelato. Quality really does shine through!
That's chocolate (obviously), which was really good, and marshmallow, which was absolutely to die for!


I'm going to have to stick to a protein bar and water tomorrow to make up for it! Kidding. Not kidding.

My father loved blue cheese, and I could never understand that. When I was about 10, I didn't have much money to buy him a birthday present. So, I went to the supermarket deli, and bought him a chunk of blue cheese. (I didn't even have enough cash for crackers. ) Anyway, I got some birthday wrapping paper at home, and wrapped up the hunk of disgusting blue mold, gave it to him, and said Happy Birthday.

For YEARS after that, he'd tell everyone that was the best birthday present he had ever received!

Cute story! When I was about 4 or 5 I overheard my mom telling my dad that she wanted some Spic & Span (cleaner), I think he was going to the store. So when my dad took me shopping for my mom's Christmas present I knew the perfect gift to get her! I was so proud and confident about my gift. She never opened the box of Spic & Span that I got her, she kept it in a special spot and said it was one of her favorite presents ever. When she passed away and we were helping my dad clean the house as he was getting ready to sell I got the box of cleaner. It is now in a special spot at my house.

What a sweet memory!

You know, we can all learn something from your experience and mine. I'm not buying expensive, fancy gifts anymore. From now on, I think I'll give everyone a hunk of cheese, or a box of Spic and Span.

(P.S.: Do they even make Spic and Span anymore? I can't recall the last time I saw it.)

I don't think they make it anymore, so maybe I have a collectible on my hands.

Bon Ami is back after an absence of many years, so maybe Spic and Span will make a comeback.

I just love Amazon:

Roy E. Disney and Lillian Disney are both Disney Legends. Regardless of how he got the job his contribution to the company should still be honored and recognized.

Yes, I know I worded it to sound like I was upset about his being Walt's, son in law, but, honestly it was really meant as a nepotism joke and nothing more.

I've made my living and career in the restaurant business, not a bathroom licker thank you. There are worst things than eating blue cheese. Have you ever cleaned chitlins and boiled them? Or had some vegemite? Or head cheese? I'll try anything once. Some only once.

Head cheese I have had, also blood pudding, Once was enough for both. You say that there are worse things then eating blue cheese, but, when you have to categorize thing by saying "there are worst things", a red flag should be popping up. I know people like the stuff, just cannot understand why. I guess you will just have to continue to enjoy it somehow and not worry about how I feel about it.

There are lots of gross things out there I am never trying. Period. Head cheese and blood pudding among them.

Actually the worse thing about head cheese is the chunks of stuff in it. I tastes pretty good. Blood pudding isn't awful tasting but the main ingredient and the texture is the biggest turn off. It was something that my Dad loved and we had it often when I was growing up. I tried it when I was exposed to it the very first time. After that it was hot dogs. Probably contains worse stuff then the blood pudding.

Blood pudding--OMG--my father loved that too!!! I did try it once as a kid, and I was skeeved out. But my mother would cook it (on the stove top, in a frying pan) for my father from time to time, as he was the ONLY one who loved it! Lastly--

Another disgusting food fave of his was a fish meal called finnan haddie (Irish/Scottish, smoked haddock). The stench in the kitchen was enough to knock you over when that fish was cooking.

Aaron Hernandez committed suicide. What a waste!

You can add tripe to that list of gross things not meant for human consumption.

His trajectory could have been the complete inverse - and was for a while. Just mind boggling.

 

[Nemo14]

He's the same age, within a few weeks, of my son. I remember when he and Gronk got that early contract extension/bonus and thinking about how different his path had been from my son's. Now I just thank God for that.

I realize news outlets have a responsibility to keep the people informed...but does every story need to be made publicly known to the world?
