All that hair fell out a long time ago!!
Oh yea, that was known as the Decade of Ugly wasn't it. The sad part is that when most of us see pictures of ourselves from years back, we all think we look ridiculous. Apparently the 80's stand out, because it was fugly back then as well. I don't think it matters that I was in my thirties back then, because I was very, very cool so if it had been good, I would have recognized it, I'm sure! What is upsetting to me is that women put chemical after chemical on their hair for years and years and yet, damaged or not it is mostly still on their heads. Men, being much more conservative about the use of product, go bald. There is nothing fair about that!
That’s scary - thank goodness you didn’t eat that food!!Well, darn. We had family dinner tonight, which NEVER happens anymore. Mike works 6 days/week, Ski works 47-50 hours/wk and usually crashes long before supper time on Fridays, and let’s be honest, I don’t cook that often.
After everyone had served themselves and had started eating, I washed up the dishes and scrubbed the casserole dish, figuring I’d eat what was left over.
I serve up what’s left, reach into the cupboard to get a glass for my milk, and I don’t know what happened (I think I nicked the edge of the cupboard door), but it shattered everywhere.
Twenty minutes of meticulous vacuuming and wiping down the counter later, I look at my food, wondering if I should nuke it, and notice all the shiny shards.
On the plus side, apparently it was all very good. Scalloped potatoes, green beans, and slow roasted flat chicken on the barbecue.
The glass probably wouldn’t have been any good for me either.That’s scary - thank goodness you didn’t eat that food!!

My grandma always insisted Pyrex didn’t shatter. I always insisted it’s GLASS of COURSE it shatters! I KNEW I was right!Oh, that's lousey. Bummer that the glass also ended up on your food plate, too. But thank God you saw it in time. I recall years ago I dropped a Pyrex measuring cup, and I swear there were hundreds of pieces of various sized glass (some just slivers) all over the stove, counters, and floor. What a mess to clean up (I was mostly concerned about the floor with a dog at home--I was worried about his paws).
Sorry you didn't get to eat any of your delicious dinner.
Amen to that.
That’s one of those just stare dumbfounded at the mess type of situations. I’ve had many of those!I once put a hot Pyrex baking dish full of lasagna on a metal baking sheet. I didn’t have any counter space so I just put it there. Soon I heard a cracking sound and poof the Pyrex dish exploded and lots of glass everywhere and lasagne was ruined. The baking dish was blue so it was easy to clean up as I waited for my pizza to be delivered since I couldn’t eat the lasagna.

I don't remember the circumstances, It might have been because I put it, full of cool water, on a hot stove burner (accidentally of course) I wouldn't want you to think that I intentionally messed up. Anyway.. it complete exploded. Glass everywhere and I was walking around in my kitchen barefooted. I had to do some pretty intense athletic looking moves to get out of there without tons of glass in the bottoms of my feet. So, yes indeed Pyrex does shatter.My grandma always insisted Pyrex didn’t shatter. I always insisted it’s GLASS of COURSE it shatters! I KNEW I was right!

Sorry, I missed an alert... catching up now!@PUSH , do you have any fun activities planned for your school kids, in preparation for Thanksgiving? I used to love to color (crayons). Seems like we'd always have a picture of a turkey, and we'd color in the feathers in different colors. Loved holiday art as a kid.
@Eric1955 , what a wonderful event you attended!!!I love your pictures, and thanks for sharing!
Actually, I thought of you last night, but for a completely different reason. You know those sappy (yet, I watch them . . .) Lifetime movies (the made for Christmas ones -- tons of them? Well, may I bring your attention to one I saw last night (Twinkle All the Way), and Lesley Ann Warren was in it!! Immediately thought of you, as I know you like her and met her. She has a sort of secondary role in this particular movie (played the mother of a main character). I think it's being repeated tonight (Sunday) at 6 PM on Lifetime, unless the schedule changed. But that's what the guide said as of last night.
