[8D]Matt knows a good cereal when he sees it. I've always loved Alpha Bets.
Even though they have sugar on them, I'd always add sugar to the bowl
before pouring on the milk. Never did make hyer like it does kids today.

OKAY:

Lunch AND supper will be homemade vegetable soup.
Joe, be sure and let us know tomorrow how bad your first frost is (if you
even get it tonight).

Fried Potatoes
Grape Jelly
Cold Cereal (for Matt): how about Post Alpha Bits (that's my favorite, along with
Cherrios)

I'll let you know about 10:30 what's on the lunch menu.

Hi Nick [:)]

Glad to see you here. [;)]

How is our future politican today?

AND we wants pics from that trip. Don't forget your camera. Bribe the conductor if you have to, so he will let you have a door open (well the upper part anyway) . [;)]

That AND the fact that he wants to beat, whip, and batter his food (and possible other things) leaves me wondering about him.

We have one of those guys at work who likes to "tie" things up. But better stop there. Just the thought of all that gives me goosebumps. [:0] [8] [xx(]

You can have that if you want. But those of us who are lactose intollerant

slightly acid milk. YUCK. Plus it has bacteria added to it. Who wants
to drink or eat something with bacteria in it.[xx(][xx(]

Personally, I'll take my chances with things like Twinkies, Zingers, Cup-cakes, etc. etc..[:D]



I remember one of Burt Lancaster's lines in an old movie: "Some of the stuff they do these days. Can you believe they feed bacteria to little kids??" (talking about yogurt, of course!)[xx(] Milk is another story, but that Yoplait stuff is just nasty!

But who wants to talk about bad food?

So what will the late night menu be, CW? [dinner][C=:-)]


Burt definately got it right![:D]

No predjiuce intentend,but I'll go with CW's menu.[:D]

To the best of my knowledge, we do NOT have a beer license: unless you
are referring to ROOT BEER. I believe that's about the only beer Jim
allows in here. If anybody wants beer that's cool. Actually I wouldn't mind
having one myself,but I guess I'll just wait till I get home.[:)]
