WalMart Crazies

Last night I was in search of some special chemicals to treat the water for my fish. It seems they have “Ick.” My boyfriend said that I have to buy a bottle of this stuff called “Soppersafe.” I don’t know why they call it that. I wish I had paid more attention in chemistry class in school.
So I found the Coppersafe at the pet store next to WalMart, and I thought, since I’m all the way over here I might as well go to WalMart and pick up a few things so I don’t have make another trip over this way.
Big mistake. That place was jam packed with weird and crazy people. The aisles were crowded, people were bumping into me – I HATE that! – and I couldn’t find the right size or the right color or the right flavor of whatever I was looking for. The lines to check out were huge. I said “Fuck it!” and left my basket in the line and walked out of the store. I don’t need all that cheap crap bad enough to stand in line for 40 minutes to pay them for it.
New Coat

Its turned cold and I dug out my ski parka from the back of the closet and took one look at that dingy old thing and threw it out. I have had that coat since I went skiing in Park City, Utah, about 9 years ago. That is crazy too long for a coat, even though it was expensive and it kept me toasty warm on top of those bitter cold mountains out west.
It’s in the trash and I’m on my way to the mall to buy a new one. Let’s see what I can find this time.
On the Road for a Free Dinner
November 24, 2011 // Posted in Eats and Drinks, Life, Thoughts (Tags: anyone, kitchen, wine) | Comments Off
Leaving tonight for a couple of days. It’s my annual duty appearance at my brother’s house. He always hosts the family’s Thanksgiving dinner. He is the only one in the family with a nice house big enough to accommodate everyone, and his wife is a decent cook. She tries to do all the traditional foods, turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, etc. and won’t let anyone help her in the kitchen. So, all I have to do is drive 8 hours and sit around drinking white wine with the family the entire day at my brother’s house. If it wasn’t for the white wine I wouldn’t be able to tolerate that much time with those freaks. But, you knew that.
Signature Dish

This girl was visiting and hanging out and talking about various things and I started getting really annoyed with her. She was trying so hard to impress everyone, bragging about all these things she can do. She likes crafts, she goes waterskiing and snow skiing, she has a fancy car – although I personally cannot stand Monte Carlos – and she likes to cook.
So, I asked her about cooking, just to make conversation. She says that she’s been cooking since she was 10 years old and loves being in the kitchen. So, I asked her is he “signature dish”? In my book, everyone who really loves to cook has one or two things that are their “old faithful.” They know how to cook it without reading a recipe and its tried and true. I believe the chef’s professional term for it is “signature dish.” She looked at, puzzled. I explained what the term meant and asked her what is hers? She shrugged and said that she doesn’t really have one – she just loves trying new recipes and everything always seems to turn out good.
Liar.
