Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

You're more than free to drive up and take us to the ER when we have an allergic reaction

That may apply to you, but it doesn't apply to her or any of her family. You have a reason, she doesn't. I honestly hate eating at her house, nothing has any flavor and/or, in some cases, even identity.

I am always tempted to ask her which one of her lives she is planning to enjoy. I do make some concession to health. For example, tonight I am going to make chili. I will be using ground pork instead of beef. Tastes and looks exactly the same when it is cooked.

Along with RAGÚ® chunky sauce and a couple of precooked meatballs from Costco nuked for 90 seconds. Totally done and on the table in 15 minutes! Easier then even walking out to the car to go to Arby's.

Another big reason is I didn't want to do dishes. I just wanted to put a plate in the dishwasher.

paper plates are wonderful

Teenagers that are trained to properly load the dishwasher are more expensive but amusing to watch

I rarely use paper plates. I like using real ones better. Plus, it saves money, and it's one less thing that I put in a landfill.

Disappointed in all of the Ragu users...for the love of Pete, at least go with Bertolli or Barilla if you're going to use jarred sauce.

I accept that not everyone is going to slave over the stove for 3 hours to make sauce (it doesn't take us six hours, but maybe I'm doing it wrong ) but do use a decent sauce. Ragu is not good sauce.

Hopefullly @JenniferS will get a laugh from this, which I got from a site that was doing "Irish memes", except that they admitted that they stole them from somewhere else, and misinterpreted at least 35% of them.




Would anyone care to guess how many of the so-called Irish memes mentioned potatoes???

Is it 5am or 6am where you are right now?
Ain't nothing like a good PO-TAY-T0E. Just sayin.

We use Mutti canned whole tomatoes, an immersion blender, a handful of spices, and sometimes add a jar of PC (Canadian premium store brand) sauce.

Ragu isn’t even available in Canada anymore … along with Skippy’s, Lean Cuisine, and Kleenex. Better quality Canadian brands continue to step up and fill the void.

At the trailer maybe, where they can be used as fire starter afterward, but rarely at home.

We use paper plates when we are on the go and other times also for a safety aspect. We've broken plates and glasses before and almost got cut during the breakage.

Ants can smell food a mile away so that is why we don't put dirty plates in the dishwasher . In the 30 years we've owned the home built new we must have used the dishwasher 3x just to make sure it still works. It does. Dishes is a task I like doing with the finished product sparkling clean. Paper plates we use from time to time.

Ants can smell 3 - 5 meters not a mile .

From experience? Lol. Then you have never dealt with sugar ants in the deep South.

No. From a friend that works for the Durrell conservation trust.

Raccoon's are nocturnal creatures ...

There's various kinds of ants (I just read, 15,700 species!), and maybe the ones (sugar ants) in more humid climates might be more problematic, year round. Although there's always ants "around" up here in the North -- I don't really notice them until the hotter, summer months.

I was just wondering if the smell distance might also vary, from one species to another. Or another thought might be that there may be many more (visible) ants in your area (either with/without food to attract them). So, I could understand how that might lead people to think that the ants could have a longer range sense of smell, leading them directly to the kitchen.

We could have less than an inch of whatever food particle on the kitchen floor and the ants come out and converge. We have pest control , continue to clean kitchen daily but in humid climates ants come out for the slightest thing. One thing we never do is leave trash sitting overnight in our trash bin in the kitchen or food left on kitchen counters. One critter that is hopeless to catch is the leaping lizards. Once they get in your house through the open front door etc the next time you see them is when you see the shriveled up body of them in a corner days later.
