Yes real Italian/Sicilian food takes all day. Daddy's mom was full blooded Sicilian actually. She passed before I was born. Her mom and dad were right off the boat!

Gladys came here in 45. Her husband was stationed in Sicily during the war. It was funny, her grandson and I were the only two boys allowed in the kitchen.

Makes sense that her grandson was allowed in the kitchen, lots of italian men are good cooks. You just lucked out!!!

Always drama around here, hubs just called me and told me there was plastic in his sandwich meat. I'm terribly sorry about the plastic but i didn't put it in there. He wants me to tell Oscar myer about it. I know what's going to happen already, they're just going to send me a coupon for more plastic meat.

I had a biology professor in college. Who was, well, let's skip that.

People would bring him things. So I'm reading his bulletin board in his office next to his rubber tree. No not that one. Real rubbers (condoms Ursuline) made into flowers and put on a plastic plant. "Rubber" tree. Get it? Anyway, I'm looking at 2 D cell batteries in an X-Ray that was photocopied (before Xerox Adrikeen). What in the world? Then I identified the femurs and the pelvic girdle. Yep, someone had gotten one of those stuck and went to the ER to have it extracted.

Normal people would ask "how". It was obvious how, I want to know if it was still "on".

I'm still back on #748....but had to interject.
I know what a photocopy is!!! The original ones were blue ink and the paper smelled like glue afterwards. Hell...I remember over head projectors and those plastic sheet things, movies came in tins and had to be hand wound. I only look young.

So...came home tonight and had total meltdown when I went out to tuck the girls in for the night and bring Rupert in (well...he brings himself in now...Rooster dog). State has been cutting down trees in the back woods area....I think due to power lines back there....not sure. The cutting was way off in the distance. WELL...came home tonight and they cut down all the tress in the back of our property and felled (if that's a word) them into our yard!!! We aren't even by the power lines!!! My birch tree is gone, several other trees are gone. Luckily they didn't touch my hollies (Delaware state tree!). We have a small pond/depression on our property that is now completely covered in fallen trees. I have a large stone Chinese lantern sculpture out there that needs to be rescued. I am NOT happy!!!

Thank you for letting me vent....hubby ran out to go eat with friends....I think he knew an explosion was coming....
