Before yelling "It burns us! It BUUUUURRRNS us!" like Gollum, look to see if supervisor is standing behind you.

10 things I learned from cleaning out my fridge ...

1. Bagged greens become liquid but remain green.

2. Brussell sprouts aren't made to be shoved to the back of the fridge.

3. That isn't beef jerky, that was a baby carrot!

4. I don't drink milk fast enough.

5. Where did this fried chicken come from?

6. Garlic DOES go bad.

7. Sour cream does NOT go good. It just keeps getting worse.

8. Provalone! Don't leave it alone!

9. I thought I had lost that pot!

10. Presto! It's pesto! Wait ... No ... That was mustard! EEW!

Dibabetes And Your Pet

Folks,

A lot of people aren't aware of this, but your cat, dog or horse (maybe others?) can become diabetic. My family has found this out the hard way. I have known for quite some time that animals are prone to diabetes, but I NEVER in a million years thought it would EVER happen to one of ours. But, it has. Our dog, Isis, is now taking two injections of insulin a day after she was rushed to the vet. Her blood glucose was 600+ when they first tested her and could have easily been higher as the vet's meter didn't register over that. We are very fortunate to still have our gentile angel with a heart of gold.

Note To Self #3

Picking at the hardened edges of molten sugar you just poured in to a container is never a good idea.
