Whooo for cleaning!  
**{Sticks and Scones}**

I married a badger. No, really.  
Ok, not REALLY, but he is badger, through and through. His life-long game name apparantly basically means ‘badger’, or it’s some foreign word for badger, or somewhat. He’s thoroughly salt and peppery like a badger, he’s grumpy when poked, he’s grumpy when NOT poked. What they don’t tell you about badgers is that they’re suckers for anything that’s cute or needs help. Big daddy badgers. 🙂 (Ok, that’s all probably just MY badger. But who knows? 😃 )

My little nekked puppy is about 4 months old, which is why I was so impressed that he did so well at the groomers. I have a pretty bad-quality video of him and his 3 brothers playing together; I will try to load it anyway, just so people can see how fluffy he was before, lol. 🙂

No food set well last night; stomach still kinda feels like heartburn or somewhat, so…yay, coffee! I know, that probably won’t help, but I want some anyway 🙂

Pickle Day is done, and I’s tahred. I think a celebratory nap is in order.

The toll: 7 quarts dill pickles, 5 quarts pickled blossoms, 4 pints green beans, and 5 half pints garlic. Oh, and one broken jar, empty at it’s demise.

But don’t you love us when we’re all manly. 😃

House is clean, garbage and recycling out, dogs pooped, grilled cheese n’ beer consumed. Had a thunderstorm earlier.

**Tao** , the cats look like they are thinking, “Sweet! Mommy brought us a food!”

**VBob** , everything sounds good except the fart blossoms.

\*\*flytrap \*\*- was the cousin serious??? Good grief…

PapaJohn has fed us a late lunch/early supper. It’s raining sorta - a very light shower. I’d be happier if it was a tad more intense. Oh well…

They are so fluffy! They play like this ALL DAY, so I am sure Mouse is missing that. Then again, if the cats would just loosen up a little… 😃

I thought they’d just take them off my hands, but they gave me $30.00 credit at the store.

Tomorrow night is steak night over to the church house. Thus steaks are marinatin’ and beer is a chillin’. I shall go over a little early to prep and bake **N.O.T.** , make sallit, ready the grill and grill the traditional smoked sausage appetizer. I look forward to this. However, after seein’ **Spidey’s** link, I now want sushi more than anything, even steak.

On that note I shall power down for the night.

Nitey Nite Y’all! See y’all in the brand new MMP!!!

**Doggio** , thank you for the ginger rice recipe! I made it tonight, with regular rice, and it goes perfectly with the asian-flavored crock-pot boneless ribs MrTao made. Fantastic!!

So, while I _did_ want sushi, now I just want more of this 🙂

**Flytrap** , are you saying you’re vegetarian? 😃 ‘cause I can totally imagine a flytrap hanging around the aquarium just waitin’…

**Swampy** , maybe you can share that ‘smoked sausage appetizer’? 🙂

Oh, and weather…muggy and hot, same as it’s been for a while. No rain, fooie.

Fish isn’t food.  
It smells bad, like cleaning an aquarium.  
I tried to eat salmon for years to please Mrs. Plant v.2.0.  
Evile, like she.

You wimps are going to bed at 7:00 CST.

I got vision, and the rest of the world wears bifocals.

Actually, I wear trifocals, so I see into dimensions you can’t even IMAGINE!!! 😃  
Doesn’t help my DRIVING one bit, but at least it’s more entertaining.
