Btw, I was flat out almost forbidden by her, to not ever do my own research about medical things. Flat out almost forbidden. I don't like texting, because people and the law take it about as seriously as a phone call, or someone showing up at your house unannounced. There is no deciphering the difference between speaking out loud, and written word. Not anymore, there's not.

Saints here call me the "ice cream brother" because I always bring copious amounts to our monthly potlucks. (BTW - never been a huge fan of homemade ice cream, at least not the way my bro-in-law's family always makes it . . .) And since I know you'd ask, my fav ice cream is Cherry Garcia. Ice cream was a thing among a group of us from the fellowship for a while. As for myself, I'm a fan of chocolate ice cream. I rarely indulge in ice cream these days... I'm so cheap that I squeak, and cheap ice cream isn't worth it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will not, not go to church, nor avoid the judeo Christian things and country, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't until later in life, years after I had escaped their house, that my father told me why he kept things like pickled pigs feet in the fridge: Because it gave my mother fits. It was also why he would shave his head over a garbage can in the garage. What did he say? "It's all gray anyway, and it grows back. Why pay someone else to deal with it?" I couldn't argue with his logic. He changed, but my mother never did. I'm thankful to the Lord for giving my father to me, pickled pig's feet and all. He was a nut. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooked beet roots are worse. Brussel sprouts are edible if forced to eat, with your nose closed and a bunch of apple sauce on it, but beet roots eeww I still remember the taste from ages ago. We had to eat all that cause it was healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I'm weird. My wife and I fight over them. She steams them in butter and lemon juice. Add salt, delicious... She never liked spinach till I had her plant some in the garden. She ask how she should cook them and I said steam them in butter etc. She tried it herself. Viola, loves it and now we have spinach in everything, and I mean everything. Variety if the spice of life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, if you like Brussel sprouts have you eaten fried cabbage? oh so good, and easier than Brussel sprouts, but similar flavor. I like pickled pigs feet as well. I like the gristle, more than the meat. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've grown cabbage as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
