son of the isolated blurts thread!

Alrighty HT-ers. I'm headed out for the evening. Happy healthy, prosperous and wonderful New Year to all of you--you are a pretty great bunch.:rose:
 
Oh my gosh, I haven't talked to you guys since last year. Oh my gosh, you guys.
 
In the past two weeks, we have gone through 15 lbs of flour, 6 lbs of butter, 5 lbs of sugar, 57 lbs of poultry and pork (collectively), 8 lbs of rice and pasta (collectively), 10 lbs of potatoes, 6 dozen eggs, 6 lbs of bananas, 6 lbs of apples, 7 lbs of green beans, and I don't know how many heads of broccoli. I haven't even factored in milk and juice.

I feel like I've fed an army! :eek:
 
As I said to a non-Lit FB friend who knows about this site, considering my current av, the irony of making snarky comments in the catcall thread isn't lost on me.
 
The house is clean, but the living room looks like Christmas vomited all over it. *sigh* I hate taking down the Christmas decorations nearly as much as I hate putting them up!
 
It really is a lot easier to just leave the decorations in their boxes. :)

I threatened to do that, just take the lids off the boxes, and put them in the middle of the floor, but I got two sets of teenaged eyes rolled at me, and an "Oh mom."

I need a new AV. I'm tired of my bitchy boots AV, and these shoes are seasonal.

You could always do what my mother did, look your teens in the eyes and tell them if they want all the trimmings, they know where the crap is stored, and you expect it to be returned to it's proper place once the holiday cheer has ended. Mom was a smart cookie that way . . . ;):D
