You know, I never thought of that......

Mrs. McKie is a damn fine cook

Your kids are young.....we have no time for that. J is a good cook but who has time to cook? I used to be a good cook when I was single. I just never ate much.

I dunno. J is busy, I'm busy. Never occurs to me to eat. I guess I'm a Barry Fitzgerald kind of guy outside of eating. I drinks water and I drinks whiskey. Pepsi and so forth I have no taste for. Just happens to be that way, don't know why.

When I was in college I decided I did not want to eat much sugar, so I stopped putting it in tea/coffee. Stopped using it for most anything, even avoided Ketchup (Katchup, Catchup, et al). Perhaps that was it. Outside of water and whiskey my drinks are club soda, juice, iced tea and lemonade. I made a conscious decision to avoid sugar while in college and it stuck.

I think I figured everything had a lot of sugar so why add to it, if you know what I mean. Anyway, occasionally I go nuts.....I have a tiramisu or sumthin'. But it's been thirty plus years of avoiding sweet drinks and stuff so the body does not miss it much, I suppose.

Now that I had a moment to muse on the thought of it, I doubt there is a woman on this thread that would not giggle at the following thought.

SETTING:

A peaceful home in California, somewhere.

SCENE

A lady named Mrs JXM with a 7 year old JXN bouncing around.

ENTER

Mr JXM. He states, "How's dinner coming?"

SCENE TWO

Mr JXM muses on playing second fiddle to son......
