Food For Thought
Why does my family think it's ok to leave eggs out of the fridge? Not only that but they see nothing wrong with leaving a jar of mayo on the table.
The jelly goes in the cabinet but they put peanut butter and bread in the refridgerator! (Did I spell that right?)
Milk and orange juice gets left out for hours...Soda and, if close to the expiration date, bread goes in the freezer.
Who freezes bread? Stop buying two and three loaves a bread at one time! No one eats that much bread!
Except for my son. He will eat a three course meal and somehow will always have room for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Actually both my kids have this addiction. I had to start buying sugerfree jelly - I had no idea this existed!
So when I eat at my mom's house I stay away from the potato salad.
You know what else they do? They'll cook spaghetti and leave the leftover meatsauce on the stove. The following evening, the sauce will still be on the stove. What happens next will make you want to vomit in your sleep. They heat up the sauce and eat it!
And they'll do this with everything. Roast beef, pork chops (I take no part in the eating of the pig by the way), chicken, you name it. If it's the following day it's okay.
And don't get me started on the jars of grease that grace the countertops. I despise this habit! I can hardly ever eat at my moms house because they'll use the pork chop grease to fry the chicken! These are dirty tactics so that after I finish my drumstick they can laugh at me and say things like, "You're still living aren't you?"
But why are people so scared to throw away grease? Afraid of clogging your drains, are you? Well, imagine what it's doing to your arteries! Are you really more concerned about the plumbing than your own heart?

You are not alone my friend--
We currently have a bag with about 6 or 7 loaves of bread in the freezer. and the grease... we have a can- let me rephrase that we had a can of it, but is now in one of those wal-mart sterlite containers... that's how much there is. My father swears by it.
