Here's something I learned to get the onion smell off of your hands. Normally, soap & water just won't get the onion smell off of your hands, no matter how many times you wash them. If you have a stainless steel sink, or something that is made of stainless steel, rub your hands all over the sink or implement, and then wash your hands. Presto-change-o, no more onion smell. Can't explain why, but it does work!

used to put a piece of bread in her mouth....then when she realized that didn't work she wore sunglasses when she chopped them. She would have a Crown Royal and ginger ale to. I think that helped the most!

20 minutes to cut an onion?
For god's sake, man, sharpen your knives and go faster.

twenty minutes to chop two onions, then some carrots and about six beets...then put them all together and boil and such.
It's just that the onions happened first.

12. I always eat a small piece of onion while I am chopping |

onions. For some reason, I never cry when I chop onions now.
Wow, that reminds me. I once thought a great song title would be: "Every time I chop onions, it makes me think of you." I don't know why I had thought that was a good idea. Must have been drunk at the time. :shrug:

I have two more semesters to go before I get my little Associate's Degree in Computer Engineering. Hopefully, I can get a decent job and start saving to escape this town and live somewhere nice.
And how have you been? I sure have missed you, my fellow badger hunter, :evilgrin:. :hug:

I''ve been busy with work, my now old job, the one at the cafe was pure evil. I worked way too much. So I quit a couple weeks ago, now I have a better job at an office. It's really great, I get to work with my older brother. :D

One of my all-time favorites. I just wish she'd used chocolate instead of crude so I could imagine licking it off of her. I just can't get past it like it is, lol.
