• The Doctor gave a man six months to live. The man couldn’t pay his bill so the doctor gave him another six months.

• The Doctor called Mrs. Cohen saying, “Mrs. Cohen, your check came back.”
  Mrs. Cohen answered, “So did my arthritis!”

• Doctor: “You’ll live to be 60!” Patient: “I am 60!”
  Doctor: “See! What did I tell you?”

• Patient: “I have a ringing in my ears.”
  Doctor: “Don’t answer!”

Last night we had brisket, baked beans, potato salad and cole slaw.

For a last meal I like carmelized onions, fresh steamed asparagus, a grilled ribeye steak with terriaki steak sauce, a chilli rellano, prepared by my favorite local Mexican restaurant, fresh sliced cucumbers from my garden, fresh strawberries with real whipped cream, some Blue Bunny brand French silk ice cream, homemade lemon meringue pie, homemade coconut meringue pie, cherry cheesecake, Dove dark chocolates and milk chocolates, Dannon Greek vanilla flavored yogurt with honey, Dannon Greek key lime flavored yogurt, some roasted and salted almonds, and pecan pie. After eating all that I’d be ready to die. 11 months ago

Spicy foodsI’m always willing to try something new in this area. My brain is tolerant even if my tongue and stomach say “no no no!” after a bite or two.Horror CinemaMixed. Some is too graphic and debasing. However, I learned to treat some as simply slapstick comedy.PainNot so well. I don’t deal well with mouth pain or foot pain. It is amazing how the most insignificant parts of the body (fingers, toes and teeth) have so much power over the rest in this area. Everything else in between I handle better.Other ReligionsHow I deal with religion depends on how tolerant that religion is. The less tolerant they are, the worse I tolerate them, especially those ones preaching they are the One True Religion.Traffic . I dislike rude drivers but other then concentrate on driving safe, I ignore them and realise it could be worse.FanaticsWhether religious or political, I dismiss them as a whole. I don’t know if that shows tolerance or intolerance.Sexuality In The Media . Depends. If you mean television, books and movies, sex does sell. Nobody has to buy a ticket to see that movie or buy the book. You have the power to turn the channel and watch something else. That’s why they have a rating system and warn if something has adult content and is only for mature audiences. If you don’t want to see it, you aren’t forced to. It’s voluntary.Justin Bieberout of sight, out of mind. I’m no more tolerant or intolerant of him then any other teen idol.Tiger WoodsHaven’t even heard his name in the news for awhile.Wasabi and…...... Sauerkrauttogether or apart? I like sauerkraut by itself and with many other foods. I’m not even sure I remember what wasabi tastes like even though I believe I’ve eaten it. I saw some wasabi flavored soy nuts the other day while shopping.11 months ago

1. Sorted enough clothes belonging to hubby, daughter, granddaughter and grandson and myself to fill 5 large trash bags and took them to the lighthouse shelter thrift shop.

2. Actually found a couple pairs of jeans and tops I haven’t worn in years that now fit me and plan to wash them and wear them again.

3. I discovered this morning that when using the formatting codes, I can post in many more colors then just black, red, blue and green.

4. I found my brand of greek yogurt at the store after being out for over a week. I was afraid they were going to stop carrying it.

5. We are still experiencing perfect weather.11 months ago

all day long. I have found it takes hardly any more effort just to make my own and it is less expensive. I use the same recipe for fried zuchini and other veggies. 11 months ago

Ingredients:
1 package instant pistachio pudding mix
1 can crushed pineapple (juice and all)
1 8oz. container nondairy whipped topping (thawed)
1 cup mini marshmellows
1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Directions:
In a large deep bowl, combine pudding mix and pineapple blending until it is thoroughly wet. Carefully fold in whipped topping. fold in marshmellows and nuts. Chill at least 2-3 hours.

Note:
This is an easy recipe for noncooks and cooks alike. It is enjoyable for both Summer and Winter family dinners. You can add a few drops of green food dye when mixing the pudding and pineapple for a deeper color. I like to garnish the top with sliced marischino cherries at Christmas. 11 months ago
