The Time Has Come

If the deli seems smelly
  and the fast food tastes rude
The time has come
  to cook your own food  

A piece of advice 
  ere you begin
Scrub and clean all the cookware
  before the ingredients go in

Kim Rodrigues Date: 5/10/2022 12:38:00 PM Unfortunate when meeting friends to endure all sorts of unpleasantness in a restaurant they chose. Smelly cleaners, lipstick on wine glass, poor service. Login to Reply

Ilene Bauer Date: 5/10/2022 12:37:00 PM ha! this made me laugh, gershon! good advice! Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 5/10/2022 6:18:00 PM Kind of an offbeat little write I thought. Thanks for the feedback, Ilene!

Sotto Poet Date: 5/10/2022 10:06:00 AM Gershon Your advice is fantastic. I realized while reading this that a handmade dinner is a hundred times better than fast food.  Furthermore, cleanliness is critical! Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 5/10/2022 6:14:00 PM Thanks. Here's to using your hands as well as your head!! Peace, Gershon

Vickey Rhymer Date: 5/10/2022 4:38:00 AM The quality is poor,the service worse sometimes Montezumas' curse.To add insult to injury,then the bill arrives...... Sister and friend picked up chicken salad and were food poisoned over the weekend.Best eat at home. Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 5/10/2022 6:12:00 PM Chicken salad, potato salad, and egg salad - I stay away from all three, after working my way through school in restaurant kitchens. Hope your sister's ok!

Jeff Kyser Date: 5/9/2022 7:50:00 PM Covid should have gotten everyone back into the kitchen. I’m amazed at how much some folks spend on food Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 5/9/2022 7:59:00 PM I'm amazed too. What a monumental -- boost to the economy. Waste a lot; Want nothing -- Economic drumbeat of the Consumer Society. :) gw

L Milton Hankins Date: 5/9/2022 7:50:00 PM (chuckling) This describes me perfectly. Tonight I cooked a real meal for the first time in ages. I've been subsisting on sandwiches, et al. Anyway, I made sure everything was clean! Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 5/9/2022 8:00:00 PM No kidding. A real meal. Good for you. Gotta treat #1 right, you know! :) gw
