What's On Your Mind 2023

I’m with you :100:

This has sparked the curious nature of mine to dive into my retro cookbook collection; I’m thinkin’ 1950’s, Life Magazine’s cookbook for the original? I’ll see if I can find it…

The title and the thought of it in a punch is a turn off, but I might like it. I think there is too much buttermilk and I think I would like it hot. That might just be because it is feeling cooler out.

Perfect (except for the tomato soup, which I don’t have)! I came home to some impressive cucumbers in the backyard.

I like all the ingredients, just the idea of mixing them together seems very wrong.

Please report back if you try it! It would be much scarier if it had gelatin in it, and was molded! :scream:

This would fit in well here.

I was brought up/taught to keep cash bills straight. All going the right way, front first, none backwards. And yet in recent years, banks don’t seem to care. Stores don’t seem to care. Just yesterday someone gave me money from an ATM. Talk about topsy turvy. Guess I’m the last of the old dinosaurs. For those of us who still carry cash. Is it just me or what?.

Same here.

It’s not just you. I pulled from an ATM yesterday and the 20s were all every which way. Although in smaller groups, they were arranged. Like 3-5 in one order, then next few flipped but all the same way, next few (etc.). So I shove it in pocket then go sit in the car and “fix” the wad.

However, most of the retailers I deal with (maybe all - certainly all that I can recall) hand me cash back with the bills ordered all the same way. I guess their management requires them to place it in the drawer that way for easier accounting of the drawer at the end of the day.

Not sure the machine can actually sort the bills in a specific way.

I sort my bills, too, but nobody had to “teach me” to do so. It’s simply a personal preference.

They don’t come out of ATMs sorted, but I order and sort mine. I guess I was taught to arrange them; I don’t remember!

A long time ago I saw some TV financial guru who said keeping your wallet money orderly was a way to attract wealth. I’ve been doing it ever since, results have varied.

Always sort mine, all facing same way and in descending order of value.

I wish Taylor Swift all the best, but I am so tired of hearing about her current love life with a football player and now this related nonsense. Looks like sour cream to me. Don’t those people at BA have anything better to do.:slightly_smiling_face:

At least this is food related :slight_smile:

I’ve been having that experience with ATMs lately, too. A.I. in the dispensers?
I always have the Georges, Abes, Alexanders and Andrews lined up when handing cash bills to the clerk and they are always appreciative and return my change likewise.

Not that I’ve noticed in the past dozen years or so…

Will it cause money to replicate itself in my wallet? Like wire hangers in a closet? I’m so excited to become rich ….
