The following are typical back and forth exchanges between Mindy and I from today:

  • (M).."I need turnips for the beef stew."
  • (E).."I can't find any turnips anywhere."
  • (M)…"Do you even know what they look like?"
  • (E) …"No"…
  • (M)…"Go to the A&P and take some vegetable pictures and I'll let you know when I see a turnip."

As we got ready to clean up the house:

  • (M)…"We need to clean your bathroom together. It's the most disgusting room in the house and that's why I'm embarrassed when we have company over."

The photo was taken after I cleaned the crap out of it

  • (M)…"Why is the plunger sitting there by itself?
  • (E)…."What?!!!"…
  • (M)…"The plunger needs it's own house."…
  • (E)…"What?!!!"…
  • (M)…"It needs to be covered up because you will never clean it!"…
  • (E).."Whatever."

  • (M).."Did you get more ice melting stuff?"…
  • (E).."Everybody was out."…
  • (M).."Did you check Lowes and Home Depot?"…
  • (E).."You Bet."…
  • (M).."Did you really?"…
  • (E).."No."…
  • (M).."If I fall on the ice tomorrow and get rushed to the hospital, you're going to have to take care of me!"…
  • (E).."I already take care of you!!"…
  • (M).."Oh, yeah."

(E).."I bought some shrimp for an appetizer!"…

(M).."Shrimp? That doesn't go with beef stew!"…

(M).."I didn't know there were "beef stew" rules."

When the stew was ready….

(M).."Whoa, what are you doing?"…

(E).."I'm taking some potatoes."…

(M).."No, the stew goes in the bowl first?"…

(E).."What?!!!!"…

(M).."This is called "Sunday Stew" where the mashed potatoes go on top to the right."…(E).."I wanna see a copy of the rule book! Is salt and pepper allowed?"…

(M).."Am I gonna have to give you a spanking? Ahhhhh, let's talk after dinner."

My name is Ethan Carey and I've lived at 1 Main Street in Mindyville for 39 years, and wouldn't have it any other way!
