Here's a cute one: ..... "The Top 10 Reasons God Created Eve" .... 10. God worried that Adam would... always be lost in the garden because men hate to ask for directions. * 9. God knew that Adam would one day need someone to hand him the TV remote. (Men don't want to see what's ON television, they want to see WHAT ELSE is on!) * 8. God knew that Adam would never buy a new fig leaf when his seat wore out and would therefore need Eve to get one for him. * 7. God knew that Adam would never make a doctor's appointment for himself. * 6. God knew that Adam would never remember which night was garbage night. * 5. God knew that if the world was to be populated, men would never be able to handle childbearing. * 4. As "Keeper of the Garden," Adam would never remember where he put his tools. * 3. The scripture account of creation indicates Adam needed someone to blame his troubles on when God caught him hiding in the garden. * 2. As the Bible says, "It is ...

Mice!
In a previous post, I spoke about happiness being a slow cooker, or part of it. Now, I will talk about unhappiness being a dead mouse on your kitchen floor when you get up in the morning. Yes, it is true. There was a dead mouse on my kitchen floor. Now, let me explain. The exterminator put poison behind the stove to kill the mice, and told me that they would eat the poison then go back down the mouse hole and die. He was right about one point, the mice did eat the poison; however, one mouse decided not to go back down the mouse hole to die, it went out to my kitchen floor to die! So there I am just getting up in the morning. Just picture me wandering in to make coffee, still in my nightgown and not wearing my glasses. I see some sort of lump in the floor...a greyish-colored lump with a stringy thing sticking out of one side. I asked myself "Is that left-over fluffity fur?"

Happiness is a Slow-Cooker...at Least, part of it.
I finally got my slow-cooker. I earned enough points on the Thank-you network to be eligible for it, so I finally got it. I had it delivered to work and had one of the guys pack it for me with a handle to carry home on Friday night. So, yesterday I used it for the first timed. I made a pot roast. I ran out and got the meat, the carrots, potatoes and onions, cut them up, put the in the bottom of the pot with water, some beef boullion for extra flavor. Then, I put salt and pepper on the meat, placed it on top of the vegetables, covered it, set it on high and let it cook for five hours. The results were wonderful. The meat was so tender that it began to come apart as I picked it up out of the cooker. The vegetables were moist, and there was some gravy that came from the meat. I was very happy. I am thinking of cooking a chicken the next time, perhaps with rice. The manual which was included has some recipes from roasts to soups to desserts. Hmm, perhaps I'll cook a turkey for Thanksgi...
