Thread: Trouble making breakfast... please help.

  1. #1

    Trouble making breakfast... please help.

    I don't mean to sound totally hopeless here, but I need some guidance from someone.

    When I make breakfast I attempt to make it like I see it being done on those TV teaching shows that they put inside the regular TV shows. I use a bowl and a box of yummy serial and milk and a spoon just like on the TV.

    If I put the serial on the bowl and put the milk on it, it gets all over the counter. If I put some of the milk on a spoon and then drop some serial onto it it takes longer and tastes good, but it doesn't seem like they do it like that on the TV shows.

    I've taken a picture. Maybe you can help.


    I also need help changing a washer in the laundry room. The new one is too heavy to lift into the sink... I don't get it. Maybe some help on that one too?

    It's because they use white glue and place every corn flake individually. When they try to do it for real, they make a mess too. You need a dog. It helps with cleaning up the mess.

    Wow, that is a knotty problem. I think the solution is that one of us needs to quit smoking that stuff

    I think it's going to be one of those days Mitch. Don't use anything sharp or pointed today.

    I only have spoons to eat with. They took all of the forks.

    Looks like a cereal that Mikey didn't like.
    Did they let you keep your belt?

    Serial, huh? So, you put a bunch of these flake things in a row?

    If you let the cereal sit and get soggy enough on the table, you might be able to use one of those new fangled straw gismos to zup up your breakfast...

    Y'all just need to be a little patient with Mitchell. He's just special, bless his heart. There aren't a lot of things to do in the cereal offenders home so he has to amuse himself as best he can.

    Mitchell, sweetie, go and organize your closet. It will take your mind off of your serial issues.

    My wife claimed the majority of the walk-in closet. She walked in and claimed it.

    I've discovered 3 new ways to stack my socks so they don't fall over. ALSO.... GOOD NEWS..... I've found these self-contained cereal bar things at the big food building.

    Now I just need to figure out how to pour the milk into the wrapper without spilling it. Maybe I need some thicker milk - like in a tube also.

    Mitch,

    My wife left on July 8th and won't be back until August 5.

    I have a real irony to tell about that and it would be great example of the "luck of the Irish"!

    That would be odd .... I though you were Italian.
