lol OK did any of you check and remove any extra or un-needed keys from your key ring after yesterdays ? Found some I was not sure of, but won't remove anything until I know for sure they are not needed.
Bonus Question:
Anything in particular you are allergic to ? Smoke, grasses, oak, bee stings, mold, cats, dogs, anything but pure clean air. Little less allergic to fire ants since 25 got me and I did not die.
Extra Credit Question:
In honor of "food check out day", what would you say your average weekly food bill is ? It is between $100 and $200. I will go look at my computer in a minute. Don't want to lose my groceries. LOL
Fact: Our computer says we averaged $123 per week on groceries last year, but sometimes I get money at the bank and buy small purchases and that does not include meals out which we don't do a lot. We eat most of our meals at home. So my first answer was correct.
Just for fun:
Last time you had Bubble Gum ? Before capped teeth
How many "Smiths" do you know ? We used to know several but here we have more Helms, Greenes, Baucoms, Howeys and Howies, Starnes, Tysons, Broomes, Belks, Parkers, etc. I can't think of one Smith at the moment.
Let's see, there's Granny Smith apples, Snuffy Smith (from the Barnie Google cartoons), Smith and Wesson, Smith and Wollensky steakhouse, Smith College, Smith who sang "Baby It's You" in 1969, Smith County - Texas, Nevada Smith (movie with Steve McQueen), Smith Barney, Smith Stadium (in Sarasota, Fla) and the ever popular poem, "Under a spreading chestnut-tree, the village smithy stands."
Anything in particular you are allergic to ?
Mango, but only if it touches the area around my mouth! I can eat it as long as I am neat and tidy (no chewing on the seed)
Extra Credit Question:
In honor of "food check out day", what would you say your average weekly food bill is ?
Not sure, has gone up, though. So hard to determine as I shop at wholesale clubs where I purchase lots of non food items at the same time as the food.
I would say $125-150, total ballpark estimate. But I could stop shopping tomorrow and live on stock in the house w/supplemental $30 for milk and bread and eggs for probably a month or more
Just for fun:
Last time you had Bubble Gum ?
it's been months, and even then it's probably because one of my kids insisted I share a piece w/them. It makes me sick to my stomach.
How many "Smiths" do you know ?
Not even one!!!
In honor of Pay a Compliment Day, I would like to say that Karla, you have a great imagination to keep coming up with all these questions every day!!
Let's see, there's Granny Smith apples, Snuffy Smith (from the Barnie Google cartoons), Smith and Wesson, Smith and Wollensky steakhouse, Smith College, Smith who sang "Baby It's You" in 1969, Smith County - Texas, Nevada Smith (movie with Steve McQueen), Smith Barney, Smith Stadium (in Sarasota, Fla) and the ever popular poem, "Under a spreading chestnut-tree, the village smithy stands."
lol OK did any of you check and remove any extra or un-needed keys from your key ring after yesterdays ?
No.
Bonus Question:
Anything in particular you are allergic to ?
Oh yes. Pollen (spring and autumn are miserable for me), cats (no loss, since I don't like them anyway) and bee stings. I used to tell people I was "allergic" to dogs to avoid hurting pet-owner feelings (I don't like dogs either, but dog people often don't understand that).
Extra Credit Question:
In honor of "food check out day", what would you say your average weekly food bill is ?
Much higher than it ever was. Anytime $75 in groceries can fit in one bag...
Just for fun:
Last time you had Bubble Gum ?
I'm a perpetual bubbler! Love the stuff! I take care, however, not to be obnoxious with it. When I'm around others, there is no popping, cracking or bubble blowing (when I'm alone however, it's a gloriously different story). And of course, I dispose of it properly. Never on the street or under a table (ick!).
How many "Smiths" do you know ?
My list is pretty much the same as Charley's .
Today is:
Food Checkout Day
Nutella Day -- As much as people rave about this stuff, I've never gotten the nerve to try it.
Bubble Gum Day -- YAY!!!! Official recognition! Of course, for me, EVERYday is Bubblegum day!
National Shortbread Day
National Smith Day
Pay a Compliment Day -- You look MAH-vluss!
No, didn't check out any keys, but plan to ask my husband about one.
I'm allergic to some types of cooking oil and a lot of pollen!
I don't think I actually know any "Smiths" personally right now. I had a crush on a Mark Smith in junior high. So I know I have known some in the past.
Don't know what my weekly food bill is. Not sure I WANT to know either!
I can't remember the last time I had bubble gum. I'm not much of a gum-chewer in general.
National Compliment Day:
Karla, you really do an excellent job here with these questions! And you other guys and gals are very consistent about giving some entertaining answers!
lol OK did any of you check and remove any extra or un-needed keys from your key ring after yesterdays ? Nah...couldn't get rid of the truck keys either darn it!
Bonus Question:
Anything in particular you are allergic to ? Colophony.....look at the ingredients of your toner....I can't have my printer on my desk. I have a bunch of other ones too, but that's the funniest.
Extra Credit Question:
In honor of "food check out day", what would you say your average weekly food bill is ? $100.00 give or take a couple hundred.
Just for fun:
Last time you had Bubble Gum ? Never was a big fan of bubble gum.
How many "Smiths" do you know ? Sadly 4 too many.....my brother's inlaws. Don't get me started.
1990 Steve Briers of Wales recited the entire lyrics of Queen's album "A Night At The Opera" in 9 minutes and 58.44 seconds backwards! I think he had too much time on his hands.

I dont really have any un-needed keys, there are only 2, and the 3rd is detatchable.
As far as I know, no allergies here. I get my morning routine of sneezles every day but today I feel a bit more, probably picked up something from work. Actually I used to sneeze a lot more on a daily basis back in Az, all that dry dust out on the jobsites. Rafter dust, dry dusty breezes. I didnt have the luxury of working in an air-conditioned building.
Our average food bill is probably about 100 bucks, but there are 5 of us and we try to eat cheap during the week.
I love bubble gum and its been probably a couple of days!
I have a few friends with the last name of Smith. Not related though.
