go to bed

My friend's visiting from Baltimore my sons godfather he brought his 7 year old son they are having a great time.  My wife made dinner usually the smell of food makes me sick but it smells good I

Ithink eggplant cutlets

Kids both said it was disgusting which usually means it's good.  Have never had my wife's cooking but she has been making a lot of things

Wow, never eating your wife's food is  perspective for me. I will not complain.  But company, kids, disgusting food, oh yeah. Sounds like a party at your house.

Yes glad to see people enjoying themselves

When we first got together she ate only celery and miracle whip sometimes strange concoctions with iceberg lettuce and cottage cheese.  Whereas I used to make my own real food.. Meat, vegetables that aren't iceberg lettuce

S  o making things that call for lots of olive oil, or bread, or meat, or whole milk etc represent a lot of healing and recovery

You know, what makes this especially funny is my almost obsessive aversion to eating fish/water dwellers. More for you, Martin.

Doesn't that rule out most Japanese food? 

You'd think so, wouldn't you?  Thankfully for me, Commodore Matthew Perry's little trip eventually led to the introduction of beef, pork, and chicken into Japanese cuisine.  Plus, plenty of dishes can just be made vegetarian.

True, true. But in my experience even the vegetarian options usually included seaweed.

I just pick the seaweed out, or swallow it whole if it's small enough.  If I'm serving myself, I don't take any seaweed. It's also why I don't like sushi, except inarizushi (we always call it "beanbag sushi").

She's come a long way, hasn't she Ches?  That is just too wonderful, you must be very proud of her.  Are things settling down for her at work now that the election is over?

Bernadette - I thought "Oh no, it's Friday again?" too when I read the word salmon.  Sent a little panic through me.

Hey!  Time to play before bed. Not time to sleep yet. You want to be up at 4? Go right ahead, but coffee is not ready in good morning until someone rolls out of bed and makes some. Unless you want to make it. Smooth and bold, nothing wimpy or instant. You do weak or instant and we can't vouch for your safety.

[Bernadette]

Actually, I kind of do want to get up at 4:00.  Plus, who'm I kidding, I just want to snuggle up in my feathers and listen to Sherlock Holmes: the sooner, the better.

Then....you're it!!!!!! You get to make the coffee. 2 pots. One for the early birds, one for the stragglers in.

[Bernadette]

Stragglers make their own coffee. Less straggling, that way.

Bird, you will withhold from the tired, the weary, the hurting, the hungover......

Awww, now you're making me feel heartless.  Nevertheless, I can't help but feel that hot, pre-made coffee is a privilege of the punctual.

Bird, you said I was a hard woman. Now, look at you. You are being hard. You've tripped your way in here late many of times.....we gave you coffee because you thirsted.

True, true. There's that. Though I will say that I never expect anyone to provide me with coffee. Making one's own coffee is a natural result of not being present when the coffee is made by someone else. How about a Keurig machine? Hot, fresh coffee at the push of a button. I think there's a new one (FINALLY), where you can make more than 10 ounces at a time.Actually, all this talk about coffee is making me want a cup really badly. Must resist.

Some of us just need a HAND. Bird. You know. A kind act is all it takes. Do you really know who you are serving?

[Bernadette]

Oh. okay.
