I put supper on a few minutes ago, Beer Batter Bratwurst, deep fried potato wedges and Van Camps pork and beans that I will be adding a wee bit of brown sugar, catsup and chopped onion to.
I love Bratwurst..........lived in Milwaukee, WI long ago...lots of good sausage, cheeses, deli...
I got food poisoning once on my way to Wilmington, North Carolina, 18 hours driving and throwing up all the way, it was a fun trip and the food poisoning was just the beginning of the nightmare weekend.
Mr. Hawk when Mr. CSD and I were in Milwaukee it was only overnight and we had so much fun.
It was our Daughter's Montessori Graduation for her Masters then we joined the graduating class when they went out together and we had a great time with the people we had just met earlier that afternoon.
I still feel like crap, but I had to mow because it's supposed to rain all week again. I got the front yard done, but the back yard is just mud so that wasn't going to happen.
We're at flood stage around here. The Mississippi, The Missouri, The Meramec rivers are all cresting.
I can't figure out if I'm supposed to be insulted or not. Father's Day is tomorrow, so we invited the in-laws over for dinner just like we usually do... but for the second year in a row, my father-in-law is the only one coming. My mother-in-law and sister-in-law (she lives with them) aren't coming because 4pm is "too early" for dinner, and they'd rather do something with him on their own later. Granted, I'm not going to push it because my father-in-law is probably relieved to have an afternoon to just relax with us and the grandkids, but it's still kind of odd. The Mr. doesn't really care, and says that his mother is miffed because we never get Chinese food... but we purposely doesn't get Chinese food because my father-in-law doesn't like it, and (for some reason) it makes him have flashbacks from the Vietnam war. Whatevs. I don't think I'll ever really understand these people, but my father-in-law is my second favorite person on earth and the closest I have to a father, so I'm going to make a big old fuss and make his and the Mr.'s favorite foods for dinner.

She's a rather... eccentric person. Diagnosed with Aspergers a few years back, which came as a shock to no one (although she maintains that the doctor is a quack), so I guess it's kind of par for the course, but still incredibly frustrating. Like an overgrown spoiled child. Granted, my son and one of my brothers have autism so you'd think we'd be used to it... but man, this is nuts.

My grandpa was wounded really bad in WW2 on Okinawa, and until the day he died he could never watch a war movie. I only heard him talk about the war one time, and that was to tell me how he got his purple heart. Never spoke of it again.
But it's father's day so he should get what he wants to eat.
My niece's birthday is this week so we're having her birthday party tomorrow. We asked her what kind of cake she wanted, and she said she wanted a cake that looked like the Earth. And I asked her why do you want an Earth cake? And she said because the Earth is my friend
