I'm awakening to Crunchers stalking me, is there no sanity left in the world...
@Jennifelroy @Madken65 @Autumn - cereal wars?
Will this madness never end?
Did we learn nothing from the pizza wars?
@Jennifelroy @Madken65 @Autumn - in that case, I'll cast my vote by asking if a bowl of bacon bits is considered cereal.
@Jennifelroy @0x56 @Autumn @Madken65 lol jen- we need a groaner emoji.
The only better in this pic would be for the rabbit to pistol-whip the Cap'n into submission
Sorry, was channeling the GOP there for a second
@Madken65 @Autumn @0x56 @Jennifelroy
Milk-boarding??? 😳
@0x56 @Autumn @Madken65 @Jennifelroy
I'm thinking only if you pour milk over them???
@InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @0x56 Soggy cereal. The worst kind of torture. 🤮
@Autumn @0x56 @Madken65 @Jennifelroy
Speaking of... When I was a wee one, I used to make a bowl of Frosted Flakes the night before school, pour milk over them, and leave them in the fridge overnight...
Was like cold sugary porridge the next day...
What was I thinking back then???
@InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @0x56 I literally just gagged a little. No no no. Soy/almond milk doesn’t hit the bowl until I’m ready to eat.
@InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @Autumn - but I don't drink milk...
@0x56 @Autumn @Madken65 @Jennifelroy
Soy, Almond, A2 ??? So many choices....
@InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @Autumn @0x56
Sadly, WARS tell us more about character than we sometimes want to know...
@InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @Autumn - almond or yogurt,.... Mmmm bacon yogurt
@0x56 @Madken65 @Jennifelroy @InvaderGzim Oh that’s just nasty. 🤢🤢🤢
@0x56 @Autumn @Jennifelroy @InvaderGzim
OMG, where is this headed, next you'll be wanting flavored coffee and/or flavored syrup
@Madken65 @InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @Autumn - coffee is sacred. There shall be no flavoring of coffee.
And syrup should be Maple (not flavored, and from New England or Canada)
@Madken65 @InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @0x56 Why am I feeling called out right now? 🤔🤫🎃☕️😍
@0x56 @Jennifelroy @InvaderGzim @Madken65 I mean... life is about choices!
@Autumn @InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @0x56
I took my troubles
Down to Madame Ruth
(And drink it down)
You know that gypsy
With the gold-capped tooth
She's got a storefront
At Thirty-Fourth and Vine
Selling little bottles of
Love potion number nine
@Madken65 @0x56 @Jennifelroy @InvaderGzim Well, that’s settled! Water is started and beans are ready to be ground.
@Autumn @Jennifelroy @0x56 @Madken65
Chucklnig... Thought you said @amarand was sleeping for another couple of hours???
😉
@InvaderGzim @amarand @Madken65 @0x56 @Jennifelroy I know how to grind my own beans. He’s just better at making it for me. Who doesn’t enjoy having someone else brew their coffee and deliver it while you’re crocheting? Realizing that’s a pretty specific example... 🙈🤷♀️ #spoiled
@Autumn @Jennifelroy @0x56 @Madken65 @amarand
And I was giggling at the double-entendre that just flew by...
Good thing there's no one else in the building...
@Autumn @0x56 @Jennifelroy @Madken65
Well, first off, no one in real life is allowed to have a fridge that looks that organized...
@InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @0x56 @Autumn
This toot just won the war
@Autumn @InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @0x56
Exit strategy to live to fight another day?
@InvaderGzim @Madken65 @Jennifelroy @0x56 That’s just the creamer... the rest is ... #toomanycondiments
@Autumn @0x56 @Jennifelroy @Madken65
Apology accepted...
😀
@Autumn @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @InvaderGzim - and enough food coffins* to be real.
*Tupperware
@0x56 @Madken65 @Jennifelroy @Autumn
Now that's a new one, and I like it...
Food coffins... heh...
Accept in my house, it's reused plastic Chinese food containers...
@InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @0x56 Growing up it was reused tubs of generic butter. You had to open half of them to find what you were looking for. 😂
@Autumn @0x56 @Madken65 @Jennifelroy
Oh, that too... but for us it's large tubs of Dannon yogurt... totally opaque... and eventually, when I open them after I've noted they've sat in the fridge for a couple of weeks/months... I see the fuzzy green and it all goes in the trash...
JUST like it originally should have...
Does anyone else save the last spoon-fulls of stuff in oversized containers, to never see the light of day again???
@InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @Autumn - yup, it just defers the guilt of throwing away food that those starving kids in Africa that our parents told us about could have eaten.
@InvaderGzim @Madken65 @0x56 @Autumn People in my house put empty icecream containers back in the freezer. Soulless bastards.
@Jennifelroy @0x56 @Madken65 @InvaderGzim This has happened recently and there were tears. It’s... it’s just so MEAN!!! 😭
@Jennifelroy @Autumn @0x56 @Madken65
With my kids, they were never empty... usually had that last spoon or two in them... ALL frozen and freezer burned when I got to them...
Just taking up valuable freezer space...
Oh, let's not start talking about disheveled freezers... I really need to purge that as well...
@InvaderGzim @Madken65 @0x56 @Jennifelroy If you look close you can see the rogue tator tot that’s been living in the corner since 2017. I should just get it but it’s a deeper bend than I should be doing and I forget about it to ask one of the guys to get it. This is its home now. It lives here.
@Autumn @InvaderGzim @Madken65 @0x56 I found it! That was like playing Where's Waldo.
@InvaderGzim @Madken65 @0x56 @Jennifelroy And let’s not forget the almost-a-tablespoon of milk always left in the container. But it wasn’t empty... 🤦♀️
@InvaderGzim @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @0x56 You’re exploring new civilizations!
@0x56 @InvaderGzim @Madken65 @Jennifelroy And, I guarantee we have at least one mystery food coffin with leftovers of questionable origin. Could be beans, might be Chinese... I don’t want to open it to find out. 🤔🤢
@Autumn @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @InvaderGzim @0x56 They only become a problem when they become self-aware and demand the right to vote.
I usually name them all as John Peter.
@Fiikus_goddess @0x56 @InvaderGzim @Madken65 @Autumn I'm sure there are a couple of things that are old enough to vote hiding in the back of my fridge. I'll get them registered when I get home tonight.
@Jennifelroy @Madken65 @InvaderGzim @0x56 @Fiikus_goddess I just want to know... at what point does that random cup of yogurt get considered a fine artisanal cheese?
@Autumn @Fiikus_goddess @InvaderGzim @Madken65 @Jennifelroy - to be honest, I'd rather *not* know that cut-off point.
@0x56 @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @InvaderGzim @Fiikus_goddess I mean... it could be a $1 cup of regrets ooooorrrr it could be a $100 small batch, locally grown, artisanal cheese you sell at the local county farmers market. Are you willing to risk it and throw away $100? Are you?
@0x56 @Jennifelroy @Madken65 @InvaderGzim @Fiikus_goddess It reminds me of cleaning out my ex-MILs pantry and finding a can of Campbell’s Nacho Cheese soup (already 🤢🤮) that was celebrating the 1984 Sarajevo Winter Olympics. It was a solid blob you could hear sliding in the can. It was at least 15 years past it’s prime.
