Laurie: tiny little words can’t express how delighted I am to see you here. Been a long time, my friend – since Behavioral Science class! – and glad to see you’re behaving well.

I too can be a kitchen idiot – just a highly controlled one.

Oh. My. God. OhmyGod!

Marilyn, compadre, you are such a talented writer. So glad I am at your blog (even though, or especially because I SUCK at cooking). I’m bookmarking you.

Do you ever do special recipes for kitchen idiots?

Wow, that is nasty. I’m glad I’ve never had to deal with dead rodents in my kitchen.

That is one of the funniest , yet at the same time, horrifying, posts I have ever read. I am sorry, but I would have to move!

EEEWWW, YUCK! The smell alone would have made me hurl! You’re a lot braver soul than I am I would have screamed and ran after touching it!

Interesting story and I totally can see why you don’t like pears!

Can you see me shuddering??? We had a mouse nest under our dishwasher in my old kitchen. Freaked me out. And me, a person who lives in the country — where I have both mice and pear trees. Guess which one I’d rather have? I feel your pain, Marilyn.

I don’t like pears either, but only because of the grainy texture in my mouth that happens as soon as I bite into one. That feeling in my mouth — Yuck, I can’t even go there. If I’d thought that mouse head was a pear – I wouldn’t go their either!!
