We're not paying for blogging, but then again maybe we are. Ever noticed how much more junk mail/solicitations you're getting since starting the blog?<br /><br />Speaking of smorgasbords, my husband tells a story of one in his hometown. He said the old ladies in town managed to shut it down. They were filling their handbags full of fried chicken and fixings for lunch the following day. walk2writehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13501812375142037251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461420851656193405.post-56875953650428475612013-05-14T15:45:22.031-04:002013-05-14T15:45:22.031-04:00@Julie: Yeah, I may be giving it a closer look ver...@Julie: Yeah, I may be giving it a closer look very soon :)<br /><br />@Elizabeth: I'm happy to be your 'pocket geek' :D<br /><br />@Lexa: I'm the same about t.v. anymore.

Can't remember the name of the place, but for some reason Duff's rings a bell. Anyway, it was a church bus trip, and the amount of food on display boggled our minds. Tables and tables and tables of every kind of food we could imagine. One of the ladies in our group wasn't satisfied with stuffing her face; she also stuffed her over-sized purse, which whe'd brought just for the occasion. The restaurant went out of business shortly after that, and for years, my father-in-law blamed that lady from our church for screwing things up for everybody else...<br /><br />Fun post. Still think about those "used cows"...Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461420851656193405.post-21565594125185129862013-05-14T13:39:23.670-04:002013-05-14T13:39:23.670-04:00That was a great smorgasboard, Mark!

I'm tired of Vamp Diaries and Walking Dead. True Blood was ruined for me once they all started taking their clothes off. It's hard to watch American Horror Story when I dislike all the characters. <br />I hope Shield is good or someone comes up with something impressive soon...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07735576044552810103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461420851656193405.post-53868748541233536392013-05-14T11:58:23.085-04:002013-05-14T11:58:23.085-04:00Best part about following your blog is that you ma...Best part about following your blog is that you make my boys think I'm smart.
