Precious Peeps it’s Pits and as always I am so PERFECT.
Monday is over but it brought a word of wisdom from my great uncle Preacher Paul. He’s so smart. My kinda dude.
Unfortunately this has yet to be shared with Grandpa and Grandma who keep on congesting our home with materials that are inedible.
I do my best to chew them up and rid my Dad of the inevitable challenge that lies ahead for him but sometimes there is only so much paper a gal can eat.
It is safe to say that you could float a boat with the amount of ALDI ranch dressing that is used in this household.
Ma loves it on her lettuce that she eats in copious quantities with boiled eggs at lunchtime when she’s home.
Dad on the other hand eats it with every meal. This becomes somewhat of a dangerous situation when Ma happens to have slaved over the stove for longer than fifteen minutes.
Like last night as an example she made pork loin with portobello mushrooms in a cream sauce. She’d seasoned it well with paprika and other spicy things. I know because I was watching and she served it on a bed of homemade mashed tatties.
No sooner had she placed it on the table and sat down than the bro declared it delicious. Happy Days!
That’s when Dad reached for the Ranch. It was worse than reaching for a pistol. A duel then ensued and Ma went back to watching BOTCHED.
No one spoke for the next hour and not a squeak was heard even from Jaws. We all knew we had to let her chill or we too might be in need of makeovers too.
We are sneaking around here like Der Fledermaus because it’s Dads birthday and we have to get his pressies and cards on the table before he gets up.
We got him two bottles of his new favorite whiskey BARR’s. Ma says it good to support family even if they are distant she must be related to these people.
Also in the spirit of keeping the mind active we got him something a little more fun than a history book.
I put my own stamp on his card.
The thing as always is sucking up to him via Mom. I just don’t understand why Ma takes her side even on things like this.
Regardless let’s hope the main man enjoys his day. My message is the best!!!
