Don't waste the space in your glass with orange juice!


Having a forced family fun night! That's what me and the kids lovingly refer to a night when it's just us. We generally play a game while having dinner. So subs and cards, here we come!

 How else is one supposed to get the daily recommended allowance of vitamin c?

Okay, is it safe to freeze, thaw and then refreeze meat?

 If it's within date, and it's been in the fridge, it should be fine.  It might affect the quality and taste, though.

I just did something ridiculous. I ordered mommy cards.

Yes, what are mommy cards?

You can refreeze meat. I've done it a lot.

I went to college with a girl who was a vegetarian. She wanted to cook meat for her husband. She thawed it and refroze it several times before she cooked it. She had never eaten meat before so she didn't know how it was supposed to look or smell. Her poor husband ended up in the emergency room with food poisoning.

Mommy cards are old fashioned calling cards instead of business cards. It lists my name, address, phone number and email and says I am mother to my kid's names. It's to give to other parents so they have my contact info.

Thank you for the explanation.

 Me, too! 

 

I thought a mommy card was something you revoke when you do something unmommy-like.  Like a man card when he goes to see a chick flick.

Well, this is interesting . . .

Back in October 2016, I purchased a bracelet on Etsy from Barcelona, Spain. I specified the size and it came in bigger than I wanted. I contacted the seller and she was totally willing to adjust it if I would return it, which I did on November 2, 2016. Honestly, I'd never thought again about it with everything else going on since then. And, I thought I'd seen where my account had been refunded.

Today, I picked up a friend and we went for a ride. Had a great time, got lost several times, laughed a lot and then came home. On my way in the apartment, I picked up my mail. I'd seen a bubble wrap envelope in there and it looked like my handwriting on the envelope. I was certainly puzzled by this because I was not expecting anything to be delivered, especially with my handwriting on it. I got in the apartment, turned on the lights and quickly examined the envelope more closely. It was the bracelet . . . EIGHT MONTHS LATER . . . returned by the post office. It was never delivered back to the seller in Spain. The envelope had been opened, as well as the box with the bracelet inside and both were taped shut again with USPS tape. I've decided to just keep the bracelet and give it to my DGD. But, eight months later! Unbelievable.

 

ETA:  Ooops, I put this on the Friday thread instead of the Monday thread. hahaha
