”from time to time”
I forget what stupendous bargains Maruchan instant lunchs are. I think of them as Ramen noodle but they come in a large variety of flavors in a Styrofoam cup. For less than $0.25 I get a filling chicken noodle soup meal plus a multipurpose styrofoam cup. I have used them for everything from seedling pots to mobile urinals to containers for small parts and spacers to level shelves and etc. I have even used them, after putting in a pressure pot to compress the cell structure, as containers for cooking ingredients. Right now I have a spice drawer full of shrunken Styrofoam cup portions waiting for duty in the mini-kitchen. At one time I used them as fire starters for charcoal briquettes. Then I learned of the carcinogens formed during incomplete combustion of styrene.
Rascal must have just had a wonderful BM. He has been charging around the room challenging all invisible mice and birds and bounding across my desk as I attempt to pay bills. At present I have gotten very good at robbing Peter to pay Paul the money I borrowed to induce Mehitbel to persuade archy to write a proposal to Peter’s wife asking her to assure Peter would be in a certain dark alley at an appointed time. At each step of the process I wring out just enough money to keep the creditors limited to snarky letters and invoices.
Would you look at that. My mind done wandered off into the olden days. Just yesterday I got on the elevator here at the 9th floor and stood waiting. Eventually two of the other residents came by and asked where I was going. Then and only then did I return to “NOW” when we no longer have elevator operators. I lied and told them that the elevator had just arrived and I thought they wanted a ride.
Yep! He had a humongous ripper. I scooped it out and dropped it in the commode. Can’t have that thing stinking up the joint.
This week I am going to try again to fry catfish and bake tilapia. No not on the same days. I am also going to fix pinto beans again. Next week I envision another batch of chicken and dumplings. I wonder if I can freeze small portions of the mixture to stuff 2 bell peppers. Hmm that is a silly question. Stauffer does it all the time.
I had planned on a baked potato and venison sausage for dinner. The sausage was a piece leftover from my last batch of pinto beans. It was greenish and smelled funny. Nevertheless I cooked it in the oven for 25 minutes at 450F. I sampled a small piece and threw the rest of the sausage in the trash. Somehow the sausage just seemed off. The sausage discombobulated me so that I forgot to pour myself a glass of August Night wine.
That was one whale of a good Super Bowl game. A quirkly play gave Seattle hope and a quirky play killed that hope. Both teams deserved to win.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
