How do you do it?

Post by Savage »

When my parents married, in the nineteen-fifties, they received a Waring blender. It was the trendy gift of the year. My mother used it to make malts and to whomp up the only alcoholic drink I ever saw her imbibe aside from an occasional beer when we ate deli. Which was a grasshopper. Vanilla ice cream, green creme de menthe, white creme de cacao, ice. When Her mom and dad married, they received an electric toaster, as that was the hot wedding gift of 1929. Toast! At your breakfast table! Hot and ready to butter, unlike those bizarre twits in England, who let their toasted bread languish in silver racks until it is cold enough to smear cold butter on it.

I forget where I was going with this. I think it had something to do with bourbon.

I have a toaster and a blender. No wife though, we aren't married. And bourbon. I always have bourbon, it's good for the heart and brain.

So, what did you and Grumpy get? A microwave, perhaps?

I bet it was a crockpot. Guessing they got hitched during the crockpot craze.

Hell even I'd get married if people are just throwing crock pots around.

Two hand mixers. Two toasters. Two coffee makers. And some pots and pans from my dear grandmother. Grumpy already had a cast-iron skillet. We should have opened up a diner.

No, that was when I was a little girl. Mom got a crock pot. Grumpy had one from his first marriage. Crock pots are cool.

If you are an old married person

Post by Savage »

would you marry again?
I would not.
I worry about Grumpy, though. I don't think he would last long without me. Which is a shame, as I am not well at all. As my doctor put it "you have a lot of things wrong with you."

Maybe it wasn't even an appliance. Maybe it was some good ol' Corningware. Who didn't have that?!

I was married then divorced. Swore I would never marry again. Then met oettinger, married him, and moved to Germany. How fked up is that, not only marrying a drunkard from the board, but not even from the same country?!

Found these quotes in the Why I never married thread. HA! Lot's of gold in there.

Well said. There has to be something seriously wrong with the dude if he wants to marry me.
