Thanks for listening
Okay, my faithful readers, I
need your help in finding
something. I happen to like
Handi-Wrap over any other
kitchen wrap made and I can't
find it to save love nor money.
Both stores here in West do not
have it. I've checked WalMart,
HEB and K-Mart in Waco and
I they don't have it either. Maybe
the company (Dow) quit making
it. I don't know but if you happen
to be in a store and see Handi-
Wrap on the shelf, please let me
know. I am down to the last of my
400 foot roll and I desperately
need more. I guess I could write
Dow and ask them where 1 might
purchase a roll, hut it would be so
much easier, and quicker, if
someone out there would just let
me know where I might find what
Tin looking for.
And while I'm on the subject of
findingthings, how about orange
extract? I can't find that either. I
have this wonderful recipe that
Betty Mashek Ingram gave me
and one of the ingredients is
orange extract. It's basically the
same with Handi-Wrap. I have a
little but I know I will need some
in the future. If you see any of
that out there, please give me a
call.
Now on to a better and more
important subject. How are your
new year's resolutions going.
Mine are going down thedrain. I
knew I wasn't going to do good,.
First off, it's been way to cold for
me to do any walking, which was
one of my resolut ions. The other
was to watch what I eat and I
have been doing that. I'm
watching what I eat, but I'm not
cutting back. Do you see a
problem here?" I did cut out cold
drinks and am drinking more
water, but that's about all I've
done to help my weight problem.
Maybe next week I will do better
but I'm notgoingtobetmoneyon
it.
Since I really don't have much
of anything to write about, I'm
going to end my column with a
joke someone sent me.
A man was walking along a
California beach and stumbled
across an old lamp. He picked it
up and rubbed it and out popped
a genie. The genie said, "Okay,
okay. You released me from the
lamp....blab, blab,blah. This is
the fourth time this month and
I'm getting a little sick of these
wishes so you can forget about
three. You only get one wish!"
The man sat and thought about
it fora while and said, "I've always
wanted to go to Hawaii, but I'm
scared to fly, and I get very sea
sick. So could you build me a
By
Jeanexie
Karlik
bridge to Hawaii so I can drive
over there to visit?" The genie
laughed and said, "That's
impossible. Think of the logistics
of that. How would the supports
ever reach the bottom of the
Pacific? Think of how much
concrete...how much steel!! No,
think of another wish." The man
said okay and tried to think of a
really good wish. Finally he said,
"I've been married and divorced
four times. My wives always said
I don't care and that I'm
insensitive. I wish that I could
understand women, know what
they are thinking when they give
me the silent treatment, know
why they are crying, know what
they want when they say
'nothing'. The genie said, "You
want that bridge with two lanes
or four?"
Think about it.
