Just So You Know

     I have begun to use the large font because the normal font is too small. I can't read what I am writing.
     Bacon really does make everything taste better - go figure.
     If you cook way too much Kraft Mac and Cheese, leaving you with a casserole dish full of leftovers. The next night throw some seasoning in it, bread crumbs on top, put it in the oven to bake. When served someone will believe you could mac and cheese from scratch.
     On July 9, 2012 I sustained an accidental dog bite to my right thumb. The result was a blood blister right where the cuticle and nail meet. On January 22, 2013 I clipped off the last piece of that blood blister. By my calculations it took 7.2 months for my nail to completely regenerate.
     Did she or didn't she? Beyonce' and The National Anthem. While browsing news stations the other day I happened upon this great controversy. How silly. What does it matter? This morning my 9 year old niece was watching a video of Beyonce' singing The National Anthem. In full voice, my niece was singing right along. Could she have lip sung The Anthem if she pulled out that ear piece?
     When making meatloaf there are no bad ingredients - OK, maybe Cheerios, but I doubt it. My sister in-law, Kitty, made a terrific meatloaf. She did not bake it. Instead, in an iron skillet with aluminum foil she cooked it on the stove top. I don't recall the details. I do recall it tasted great.
     Today is a sad day for the fan of football. The pro-bowl is a joke!
     Today is a great day for the fan of basketball. Three nationally televised games. All handpicked for their "star" quality matchups.
     Guess Jillian from The Biggest Loser had grown too big for her tight fitting tank top. She left The Biggest Loser to do a bunch of commercials. I see she is back on The Biggest Loser - giving new meaning to the show's title.
     They will seriously put anything on television these days. Yesterday you could watch a marathon of Gold Diggers followed by a marathon of Duck Dynasty. Today there is a marathon of Digging for Gold followed by a marathon of Moonshiners. Oh me oh my! The Biggest Nerd is a hit, along with Impractical Jokers. Storage Wars now airs from four states. Hoarders, or a version there of aires on A&E, The Discovery Channel and The Learning Channel.
     Recycling is important. An X Games snow boarder is wearing a tuke made from 6 recycled plastic bottles.
     On the X Games. Professional snow boarders? No, we did all that stuff when we were kids. Our boards were cardboard. Our mountains were not groomed and we did not have sponsors. Oh yeah, empty bread bags kept our feet warm - so we were in fact "recycling."
     Bought one of those Razor Scooters the other day. Everyone should have one. It is an excellent way to exercise Zuko. The kids in the "hood"  think I am the coolest grandma on the street and behaving with child like enthusiasm does not make you childish, it makes you young. You can ride around the block with your niece which makes her so happy. The older we become age wise, the more important it is to engage in activities of our youth. The ensuing joy and laughter takes years off. At my current rate I calculate my age to actually be 26. Next week I am going to buy a Light Bright and an Etch a Sketch.
     Leftover, leftover mac and cheese is best served fried.
     Have you ever had a dream which, hours after you woke up, brought a smile to your face? Isn't that great?
     I do love the ads with the fork and words about the fork being an assault weapon because using it leads to obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and death. Very clever of those gun owners. Ya' know I more often choose to eat with a spoon. It is less messy, scoops up ever last morsels, allows me bigger bites, and it is much easier to wash. I must point out though - the fork, like the gun - is only an assault weapon when a person pulls the trigger. The biggest difference between the "Assault" fork and the assault weapon; The "Assault" fork slowly kills the person using it. The assault weapon rapidly kills many innocent people.
     Is anyone still holding true to a New Year's resolution?
     When at Sonic they bring your order to your car, should you tip the server or not? I say yes. The server in a restaurant brings the food to my table. How is this different than the server bringing the food to my car? Drive thru I am being handed my food - no tip. Car hop service, yes a tip. What's your take?
     Power tools are not just for boys anymore. The number of woman I know, from all walks of life, who have power tools - and they know how to use them...well, that number is almost 5. Isn't that great?
     I want to know what Betty White drank, ate, submerged her body in, whatever it was I am in. That woman is timeless. Hot in Cleveland is a funny show. I say yes.
     President Obama acted in direct violation of The Constitution when he appointed some people to some positions when Congress was in recess. Now some regulations regarding safe drinking water, funding for school crossing guards, and a bill of rights for elderly patients living in nursing homes will be revoked. W. acted in direct violation of The Constitution when he engaged our country on a war with Iraq for no reason. The hundreds of men and women of our military who died in this war cannot be brought back to life. The billions of dollars spent on this war cannot be returned to its coffers. One of these things is not like the other - How stupid does the right think an average American Citizen is? Wait, don't answer that - I don't want to know.
     I think the accomplish three things rule is catching on. Yesterday Zuko ate fried mac and cheese, bacon, and beef jerky.
     Doesn't matter how heavy the load, new washing machines have a setting for it. Just like us. Amazing how technology is catching up humans.
     One last thing; Just So You Know - if you read all the way to this point I am extremely grateful. Thank you and I love you.
     Peace out with paragraphs completed.
