Not much, medson! Just working and waiting for the sun to return tomorrow! Been rainy here this week :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:20pm
medson:

Bummer. It’s actually been a decent winter here on the southern tip of NJ.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:21pm
Candy-O'67:

It hasn't been too bad here, medson. We did have one day of snow almost two Sundays ago! It was so cool, since we rarely ever get any here :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:23pm
medson:

My friend sent me a video of snow in Texas. I think he’s near Round Rock

Show sounds so good Kitschy Mama

Kitschy Mama:

thanks Medson!

Mike Sin:

Am I the only one that remembers that period of time in the early '80s when the only type of cheeseburger you could get on the boardwalk of Seaside Heights, NJ was a "CHEESE whiz BURGER"? Ha! I guess, at that time, extra refrigeration was quite an added expense!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:26pm
medson:

They dripped it off that stick onto the burgers didn’t they Mike?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:28pm
Mike Sin:

@medson -- yeah, something like that. When I was a kid, I had the worst diet, so I always ate all that stuff every summer down at the shore. Anyway, enjoying the show, Kitschy Mama!
Avatar 5:28pm
Kitschy Mama:

was the whiz in the middle of the patty like a juicy lucy or on top? sound like a damn mess.
Avatar 5:29pm
Kitschy Mama:

Thanks for listening' Mike Sin!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:29pm
Candy-O'67:

That's near me, medson, only 15 or 20 minutes north of where I live. It snowed all over the Hill Country and San Antonio, parts of Houston and my parents got the same as us the next day in North Louisiana. What's funny is they live in North Central Louisiana about 10 minutes from the Arkansas line. 20 minutes away in the nearest biggest town in AR near them, El Dorado, they didn't get any snow!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:31pm
Mike Sin:

Whiz on top in place of real cheese. In 85-degree heat, it was all over the place.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:31pm
medson:

I remember it on top and very messy.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:32pm
StringOFperils:

Just add a little sand and it's perfect.
Avatar 5:35pm
Kitschy Mama:

Just when cheese whiz couldn't get more gross, hey lets put it in a aerosol can!
Avatar 5:36pm
Kitschy Mama:

and the Twinkie Weiner sandwich was born.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:37pm
Candy-O'67:

Haha, I grew up on that as a kid, too! I wouldn't touch it now, the cheese whiz
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:37pm
StringOFperils:

It's the baloney of cheese.
Avatar 5:39pm
Kitschy Mama:

lol stringOFperils certainly is! what the hell is in there?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:39pm
StringOFperils:

That very same jar of Cheez-Whiz from when you were a kid is probably still good.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:40pm
medson:

It was the cheese of the future

I'm enjoying a cold, bottled jasmine green tea right now. I got in in my last Imperfect Foods order. It's from Japan and delish! I just thought I'd share. It's unsweetened, too. The jasmine makes it so tasty!

I'd have marched down to that school to reprimand my daughter for taking my backpack, and I'd scowl at the teacher and leave.

i don't eat much cheese or dairy in general, but last night the store had cabot cheese for ~$4/lb so i bought 3 kinds. (21oz total)
i gotta watch myself.

yeah i don't mess around with those cheese substitutes, despite eating a vegetarian ("vegan") diet about 90% of the time
Avatar 6:17pm

coelacantho: me too. the only faux cheese I can handle is parmesean.
Avatar 6:19pm
Kitschy Mama:

HAHA i winged it... "parmesan"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:23pm
coelacanth∅:

i just don't miss it or need it so it's (normally) a once-in-a-while treat. i've gone years without cheese and not been tempted. i love my cooking and never cook with dairy. i just use cheese sometimes for avocado sandwiches.

Kitschy Mama:

cartoon themes.... no?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:28pm
coelacanth∅:

(not to stay on the subject forever but) ...i knew someone who went to school in wisconsin who said she was much more - "shocked" i think was the word she used, at the meat consumption than the dairy.
Avatar 6:30pm
Kitschy Mama:

oh yeah, its very difficult to be vegetarian in Wisco. I've lived in in WI for 35 years and it's thick.
