Duncan Hines and Betty Crocker – and the things I never knew. See, I assumed that Betty Crocker was a real person, a lady that was good at making cakes and took her cake recipe to all of us. Wrong. I also thought Duncan Hines was a company made up of two people: Mr. Hines … Continue reading Let Them Eat Cake

No Means NO !!!
There are certain things you shouldn’t do. Recently I saw a list on-line about things you shouldn’t do, but they were all so serious. You know, things like: Don’t lie to yourself, don’t take people for granted and all that serious stuff. But what about real life situations. This isn’t stuff not to do just … Continue reading No Means NO !!!

Charlotte, or as Lisa likes to often refer to her as, “Jim Jr.”, is literally my partner in crime. No – we are not Bonnie and Clyde going on a murderous rampage – but we do go out and have fun.

So ……. (Don’t you hate it when my posts start that way)?
I’m popping popcorn and as I’m watching it spin around, I had a few thoughts. We have one of those countertop popping machines, oh yeah, we fancy here in Sumstine-land.

You can’t fool me. See, when I first saw this, I thought it cool. But now that I’ve had time to … Continue reading Nope – I Won’t Fall For It
No – You Are Not #1
Many of you know of this that I’m about to speak of. Or is it that I’m about to write of? Either way. Me, I find this type of stuff fascinating. I love finding out that something I do has historical meaning and has been handed down over the centuries. Not that I would ever … Continue reading No – You Are Not #1
Just a test?
The pain was real. The wound was deep. But the scar ….. Was the first bite just a lesson? Or was it an initiation? Did you feel the need to test me? To see if I am worthy? I thought we had something. We had a kinship. We had an understanding. We were brothers? Blood … Continue reading Just a test?

Ok - some of you may know what that means. For those of you that don’t… On long road trips, Lisa will often get on the Reddit Ap and read the section where people post an experience and then ask, “Am I The Asshole?” I’ve often wanted to post a few of these, but I … Continue reading AITA
