BTW Beachy - With all your home improvement skills and the hog butchering I've decided you are secretly Amish.
I honestly think I could survive and I completely respect and admire much about their lifestyle....although, I understand that their wives are quite "subservient"...and well..hehe, that's not my strongest suit.
I'm definitely from some serious pioneer stock my friend, on all sides of the equation.
Do you like egg salad, pass? I have a recipe for a turkey salad with hard-boiled eggs that's really good in sandwiches, if you want to do something different.

Depends on the family. I can assure you my Cousin Ruth wears the "buttons only no zipper" pants in her farm house. (She scares the heck out of me. Hands down she's the bossiest woman in the state of Ohio. )

LOL.... My mother was like that. Oh, she made it "appear" as if my father was the decision maker, and made sure that he was the one who was the mouthpiece, thereby being the "bad guy", but she was most definitely the one always holding those reins. She was a very, very dangerous and vindictive woman when crossed....definitely not someone you wanted to make angry. You still don't get involved in a conversation with her on something you disagree with her about. It's best to simply nod and say, "Hmmmm, REALLY? Wow." That woman is small, but can be pretty darn scary, I'll tell ya.

I use less mayo, more mustard (less "sauce" overall, just enough to bind it together), light and dark meat, sweet pickles. Chop everything small, no food processors. I also buy the pre-cooked HB eggs, because I really hate peeling them.

That's so funny....You are sooo not among the few in your disliking to peel hardboiled eggs. Mine practically peel themselves. I add about 2 Tbsp of vinegar to the water. As soon as they're done cooking, I take them to the sink, dump off the boiling water, then fill the kettle with cold water. I stick my hands in the kettle and tap them all over, to shatter the entire shell. I then leave them in the cold water for 15-20 min, draining them, usually twice, refilling with cold water. Like I said, the darn things practically peel themselves. I just lightly roll them between my hands, grab hold of a piece of the shell and they'll usually pop right out.
Shoot, I can peel a dozen eggs in about 30 seconds this way.

lol. One of my favorite movie quotes is from My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Paraphrasing from memory, but something like this. "The man is the head of the family, but the woman is the neck. She tells the head where to go."
Aw Txt, you are spunky! I like your wits and your intelligence.
Use it for good and you will go far.
But, forgive me if I'm wrong, however I had the impression that TG is not as invested in your relationship with him as you are. In which case, your proposed gifts are over the top, and, if he's embarrassed by them, he may end avoiding you.
You mean don't use them for evil?
But I heard the dark side had cookies...they told me they'll be back with the van later......
I told him about the ski trip last night.
And he liked the idea, I think he'll end up paying for half just because that's just the way he is.
Anyways....
Got my uniforms for work.
Today is my day off from Walmart.
So my checklist is as follows:
-Comfortable clothes - check
-In bed - check
-Food -check
-Super Mario - check
-nap time - coming to soon to eyelids near you.

why, why WHY do you ask for advice then not take it EVER???? this is why no one responded when you first brought it up. We knew you wouldn't listen. It is a waste of our time to respond when you don't listen.
