I had a craving for hush puppies
Google maps showed me shoe stores

Who still wears those?

I added a new purchase to my antique portraits in frames of people with facial hair collection
It was a no brainer
c. 1950-70 ish - Mid Century Modern?

At what indoor temperature do you stop putting on layers and turn on the heat?

Some days, it just feels like you are wearing somebody else's underwear.

Vinegar was invented by cooks who wanted to hide the smell of food on the cusp of going bad
IMHO

Very few people from my in-person past seem to be active on social media
Even many of those that were in tech

It makes me wonder what the heck they do to waste their time

I have been unsuccessfully searching Google Maps in my area for a "Savory Pork Pie"

It's a food I have never eaten that has been stuck in my mind from Dickens' Great Expectations for many years

My simple life

Perhaps the president should resign just to piss off all the people who have already invested in merchandise with 47 printed on it.

Rain forecast means I will not be trying to sell more old portraits at the flea market tomorrow.

Seems like it has rained for many of my attempts this year.

I thought about getting one of those pop up tent like things, but there is not enough profit in this silly hobby to justify the cost.

Oh well, next spring I'll try again.

Probably my most favorite pasta because it's so easy to control your portions

You can do many things which you appreciate more than almost everyone else.

Keep doing them.
Nothing wrong with impressing yourself.

If I had a time machine I would use it for important things.
Like going back and shaking the hand of the person who invented garlic bread.

Well done my friend.

I got angry with an inanimate object (vacuum cleaner part) and tossed it aside today breaking a nearby antique.

Perhaps I'll just Swiffer more in the future.

I wish they sold pesto sauce in a single serving size @ my grocery store.

My trousers would not be happy if I ate the entire jar within a few days after opening.

Yes, I am too lazy to make it from scratch.

"Time Remaining" for most software updates is just a random number pulled out of a developer's butt.

I hope the blue side does not now start posting wacky conspiracy theories.

We don''t need to look as wacky as the red hats.

Flea & Farmers markets should not be allowed unless at least three vendors sell home-baked yummies.

IMHO

@BillieBun Just water to clean
Scrub the unfinished backs well
Barely damp tools on the front (sponge, toothbrush Q-tips)
Trying not to let water get into the cracks

Occasionally
Colored touch-up markers (or black paint) on small edge dings and chips
On frames with no compo decoration, Restor-A-Finish & Feed-N-Wax
Seldom re-paint because that would be more money spent

@BillieBun Mine are mostly cheap. I have messed up small spots on 2 or 3 trying different things. Now it's mostly water.

It's a money losing hobby. You never earn much for the time you put in.

But, I like to imagine that I am keeping them alive for another decade or two.
