@Irish_blueeyes -- what a fantastic memory to have!!

@ellonwy -- too funny! Nothing worse than needing garlic or an onion and only the gas station of 7-11 is close enough for that particular moment.

@hethyr--too funny.

One of my dogs (we have two, plus a cat), is so amazingly punctual you could set a clock to him. All it takes is about three days of consistent awakening at the same time and on the fourth day, Z will be standing by the side of the bed chuffing and barking to let me know he's awake and I best be, too. Z is a much more charming alarm clock than anything available on the market!

I almost always hand write a thank you note for any act of hospitality not involving parents or partner (though, perhaps they deserve a thank-you the most of all!). I even do it for friends I've known 20 years, and especially those with SOs that I may not necessarily know very well. Everyone likes to be appreciated!!

I love fava beans and actually eat them uncooked, just shucked out of their furry homes. I think that comes more from impatience than flavor.

I just stick with a sharp knife. And a bowl.

My former roommate made that cake!! How awesome!

I have absolutely nothing against anyone who wants to use this product -- who am I to judge them? I know why I probably won't by it (seems FAR too gimmicky, likely sodium laden, would rather just add fresh herbs to my current cream cheese), but that's only my choice. If this helps a busy mother at home feed her kids, or a single person at home who is looking for an easy twist than good for them! At least they're cooking, which is a step in the right direction.

Our 3 year old Wheaten, our 2 year old Glenn of Imaal Terrier/Mutt, as well as our 1 year old kitten all share a bed with my SO and myself. Our Wheaten tends to rotate out a lot more as he prefers the much cooler wood floors -- but, he still sleeps right next to the bed. The other two take their places on our bed and rotate around the bed based on which one of us is more twitchy that night. Usually, we awake to the 2-year old pup curled up right between our heads and our kitten on top of one of our legs. We wouldn't trade it for anything. The sheets do get dirtier faster, but that's okay.

@daylight - I never knew where the word "putz" came from! Embarrassingly enough, I think I always assumed it had a hebrew background, for some reason.
