Hy-Vee ad if I remember it, terrible dumb ad.
My grandpa was one week younger than my grandma and for that week every year he would give her crap about being a year older than himHa! My mom's birthday is the 18th, my dad's is today, same year.
The face on my grandmother when my dad told her he was dating an older woman was supposedly priceless.
I grew up a chiefs fan and my son likes the packers so we are hoping for a super bowl 1 rematch. He's getting a personalized packers jersey for his birthday and he wanted number 13, I have no problem with that.
I always tell people my wife and I are from different decades when it comes to HS and graduation.
She graduated in 89 and I in 90. We were born the same year though.
I like to tell people Lew was in his 40s when we got married, while I was still in my 30s. He turned 40 a little over two months before the wedding; I turned 40 less than a month after the wedding.
Mine showed sizes as M, L, and 3XL. Uuuhhhhh......I want to lose weight but not putting money down that I can go from XL coats to L coats. I have a longer torso (shorter legs if you prefer) at 5 11 so I usually like bigger coats just for length. I’m not doing 3XL.
We were at a pre-event dinner once (for a show at Stephens) and we all went around saying our name, where we were from, etc. One younger couple mentioned their ISU graduation years because they'd met there. When it was our turn, I said we'd met here, too, and graduated in the last century. Took everyone else a minute.
You're right. Is she even up yet?Happy Birthday KC!! (Damn I hope I get this right or she'll be mad)
When I make chili I use our largest crock pot and I'm not done until I have that sucker is full to the brim. One kid pretty much won't eat any, the other will eat a little bit and Mrs. Velo eats some but the left overs are pretty much all mine. I'll generally eat it for at least one meal a day until it is gone. That usually takes two or three weeks. And I'm still sad when it is gone.
I found a container that isn't ours in our fridge with some cheesy goop in it. Mrs. Velo told me that our neighbor across the street made some cheese dip and it was too hot for her family so they gave it to us. I thought, "Yeah, they are from Wisconsin so they can't handle hot stuff." I heated some up and started eating it with tortilla chips and the heat started building. I mentioned to Mrs. Velo that it was pretty hot. She said that the neighbor had made it with ghost pepper cheese. Well no wonder it is hot.
I started putting a giant dollop in my chili since the chili came out way too mild last time. It heats that chili right up.
Happy Birthday, Aunty!
Here's to the wheel coming up "Aunty's Choice" today!

Well of course not. They can't get into the neighborhood because their house is in the middle of their street!
When I first saw that ad my first reaction was they are trying to be Target. Mrs. Velo agrees.
