The boards have not been cleared so far this week.

I got Carrie Nation. I had lunch at the Menger Bar in San Antonio where Carrie Nation wielded her axe.

Me too!

I saw an episode recently where Abby came into the observation room, so having Kasie there is not unprecedented.

I've seen cookies with M&Ms in the store. I've never bought any but would eat them if offered. A few months ago I picked up some M&Ms from the impulse rack at checkout. I accidentally picked up a bag of peanut butter along with regular and peanut. I LOVE the peanut butter. ATK was doing a review of parchment paper. They complained that the rolls of it don't lie flat. Big whoop. I just turn the curl side down. They recommended buying King Flour sheets online. I've now seen and bought Reynolds sheets at the store. Not sure what year that review was made, but sheets are available in stores in my area now.

Making fun of a child was a bridge too far for me. Not funny. And I don't have kids!

The one that annoys me most is the woman who yells at a kid, a kid mind you, that he can't make a basketball shot because he has "weak arms". When a man says, "How do you sleep at night?" we get the tag line because she sleeps just fine on a mattress from Mattress Firm. So, their message is even assholes can sleep well on their products. No thanks.

I knew All Saints Day is November 1, but that didn't help me for FJ. I fixated on the year. How many of you know why there is a Halloween? I'm guessing most know the date. All Hallows' Day is All Saints Day.

I saw a Welch's frozen smoothie today and decided to try it, strawberry banana flavor for $2.99. It was not very good.

Perry Mason is the reason my husband went to law school, but he spent his entire career as a federal prosecutor. Both Perry Mason and Matlock are alive and well in reruns on several channels. MeTV airs them back-to-back on weekday mornings.

I think it's just a nervous tic. Heaven knows what I would do. 😅

Sandra was live on QVC this afternoon. She's looking good.

I watched the Season 1 marathon that Bravo ran yesterday. I'd seen some of it before. Up until the last few episodes I was liking Lisa Vanderpump. By the finale, the only one I cared about was Snowball. I was glad to hear she found a good home. 😄

No. It was a woman whose male partner told her the coffee was decaffeinated. The woman says - de- what? Poor little woman couldn't handle those big words! Still makes me angry.

In the early 70s, I wrote a letter to Folgers to complain about a commercial I found misogynistic. I got a letter back, saying the focus groups they ran it by did not find it offensive. Therefore, I assume all the commercials we see have been tested with focus groups, but the ones tossing out friends and relatives over pet food in the fridge (I think they're funny), wouldn't seem to fly based on comments here. 🤷‍♀️
