Corn Syrup?

Wednesday, February 29, 2012

Over a month ago we lost power on our refrigerator...Yes, this bad boy needed service.


I lost a couple bucks in groceries to the dead fridge and the freezing cold outside...the BBQ sauce was "questionable" along with other condiments hubby and I left in the fridge.  He had to stop and get some on his way home to make his famous baked country-style ribs and onions.

Conversation heard that night:

T: I got this BBQ sauce because it said it had no corn syrup on the front.
M: ?
T: I started looking at all the labels and all the others had corn syrup.  This one didn't.
M: ?
T: It was good wasn't it?
M: Yes, I like Ken Davis BBQ sauce.  It is good.

Two weeks later country-style ribs are back in the rotation.

T: This sauce didn't have corn syrup either - so I got this one this time.  It tastes pretty good, don't you think?
M: ???

I think the Corn Refiners Association is going to be so pissed that their ads were so ineffective on my hubby that he actually spent time looking at all the bottles of BBQ sauce in Cub Foods to find the ones  that did not contain high-fructose corn syrup.

I saw creativity...and it wasn't mine.

My child got some bendy-semi-sticky-pipecleaner-type thingies.  And she sat in the kitchen and twisted them around and came to me with them singing....

It bugged me that she could sit with about 15 sticks of semi-sticky-pipecleaners and come up with a bunch of different things, including a song.



Why can't I do that?

At least I am not as lame as Angelina Jolie's right leg.

Where to start?

Wow.  I have been so slack on posting.

Really.  Super-slacker.

What I found is that I have more time for Twitter - but even that is slacking.  And my friend Michelle is on there now!!!! How can I be slacking?

And reading blogs?  YIKES!!!! I gotta catch up with y'all.

Its been, work, people being sick (including my pink eye!!!??!), the gym, laundry, a visit to my Sair at college, girl scouts, kid-fu, PTO, fighting "the man" and general mayhem.

How have YOU been?  (p.s. Boo Boo is in the tub so I am heading out to read blogs now!)

What to wear, what to wear????

Next year for our annual New Year's Trip

The ladies and I were talking about hitting the North Woods Bar's 

  wearing some new 'do's.

Am I Katy Perry enough?

Or maybe I am "naughty"
