The Front Porch Swing

[Beeps and Peeps]

You're not gonna let someone whose fingers are faster than their brains drive you off, are you?  C'mon...you're made of sterner stuff than that!!!  Want we should go beat 'em up???

Yeah! The ladies of the porch will pelt them with rock hard overbaked cookies and put as much sugar as in three pitchers of sweet tea into their gas tanks!!!

Bad day getting worse. Was let know that I am not wanted on BYC (not in this thread). I don't need that. I just ask questions and try to be helpful. I understand where BYC gets the reputation that it has now. I'm outta here.

I hope you ladies enjoy your time on the porch. It was nice to visit. Thank you for being nice.

Wow. How rude can people be? Just because someone else has their opinion, does not mean it is everyones opinion!

I was just getting acquainted with you Ms Jellybean. I do hope you change your mind and decide to stay.

I don't like you....I LURV you!    To tell you the truth it nigh bowls me over when anyone takes any suggestion I may make because here where I live not one single person ever listens to anything I say.  Truly.  Even about medical issues.   They have a nurse who's been in the biz for almost 20 yrs but will ask their college roommate about medical issues and take their word as gospel.  True story! 

I guess that comes with the territory of being the youngest in the family....no one...and I do mean no one...even lets me complete a sentence, let alone listens to what I may be saying.  That anyone here ever listens still amazes me and makes me feel so humbled and grateful that I would send you a box of Krispy Kremes if I could! 

I love it when folks here give me good advice...it's free and I use so much of it, you would not believe!  I don't know how I got by with chickens until I met some of the OTs on BYC.  Just like this incubation thread....I'd have been lost if I hadn't had some of the experienced people to tell me about water wigglers, air cells, humidity, etc. 

Things I learned on BYC that I didn't know about and started using in my flock keeping:  deep litter, killing cones, water nipples, and about a thousand other little things I'm too old and forgetful to list here but the upshot of it is that I am loving that all those out there with advice gave it so freely and I have benefited from it so greatly. 

Ohhh Krispy kremes!! Can you just stick a box in the corner there before church and I'll swing by on my way to church. They closed them all in the Houston area several years ago. And I miss them. My butt doesn't but I do.

Stay here, don't worry about them. It seems things over there were getting out of hand. I like to hear your thoughts and I like walking down the path with you towards getting your chickens.

I must be really weird. They just don't appeal to me. I'm not much of a sweet eater though, I never have been. I won't turn down a few freshly baked cookies or a good pie, chocolate pudding is my all time favorite dessert (or favorite salad, depending on my mood) and strawberry/rhubarb jam on anything makes my toes tingle. I am fortunate, though, because I do have 6-pack abs......even if they are two liter bottles. My problem is that my idea of a bedtime snack is a pork chop. <sigh>

I will stay here. Only here though, if anyone sees me starting to venture off the porch grab me and bring me back.

Please explain how chocolate pudding is a salad. I need to know this.

As I said, depends on my mood....if I'm feeling self indulgent, special, or just think I've earned a reward then chocolate pudding is a dessert. However, if I'm in one of my "I'm going to get healthy if it kills me and I'm going to start right now" moods, then I serve myself the chocolate pudding and think of the healthy things in it (somewhere), so it becomes my salad. See, simple as pie!

Yayyy, strength in numbers......glad you're staying!

Ms Jellybean, you really don't want me to cry do you???? I love your attitude about life. You always give me a lift. Besides who else gives out such great recipes???

BLOOIE, I don't like Krispy Kreme either. I like the big fat fluffy doughnuts, fresh and hot. MMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Ms Jellybean, chocolate is GOOD for you. Scientists say it, so it must be true! http://www.techtimes.com/articles/5...ight-loss-and-diabetes-yes-says-new-study.htm
