Hot dogs can be frozen. Can’t see any reason Sonic corndogs couldn’t be saved in the freezer. It’s just cornbread wrapped around a hot dog. ---

> [@Beckdawrek](#): > > Well, then. Imma gonna do it. Yay! Emergency corndogs. > 🙂 Nononono. You’re not saying it right. Mr VOW has a secret chocolate stash. A serious one. I’ve called him on the carpet for it several times. He gets a completely innocent look on his face and explains that is for “Mergencies!” That’s also what he calls it when things apparently jump under their own power into the cart when we are grocery shopping. You know what I mean. Cans of black olives, chocolate peanut clusters, jars of sweet gherkins. All “Mergency” rations. ~ VOW ---

~VOW…me and Mr.~Vow have the same ‘mergency’ treat preferences. Now I gotta go to the grocery store, too.🙂 ---

If you go to the freezer section of most grocery stores, you’ll find frozen corn dogs. Of course, they’re not Sonics, the Cadillac of corn dogs, but they’re proof corn dogs can be frozen. Guess Mr. Wrekker is going to have a hard time getting to the ice cubes now. 🙂 ---

The store bought corndogs are a sorry second best. It’s the deep frying that makes the corndog. I’ve done it in a fry-daddy. It’s just not the same. Sonic deep fryers have all that ‘flavoring’ from all the other food they’ve fried in it. I can actually tell when they’ve just changed the oil. I have discriminating taste when it comes to my corndogs. Only the best will do:D ETA, I’ve just eaten 2. Bought 10 to carry home. $6 bucks worth of happiness:) ---

that’s good planning. Ya never know when a catastrophe will happen, right? I mean winter is well on the way, could be a lot of snow or ice storms downing trees and powerlines, a tanker truck could explode cratering the road, wild hogs could lay seige to the house. Ya gotta be prepared ---

So true. In my sad life so, so many strange things occur. It’s almost like the black cloud that follows me portends evil happenings. Maybe I’m cursed, nah! couldn’t be that. Just a coinkydink. :eek: ---

Do not–repeat, DO NOT ask Calamaty Beck about her cute, little, color-coordinatec back pack. It ix filled with Mergency Rations which are vital to Beck’s physical and emotional health. Just sayin’ ~VOW ---

And…the washing machine repairman came. I’m getting a new washer. Thank you extended warranty I had the forethought to purchase. Yay! me! I may have to take a nap. I’m exhausted! ---
