She'll drink a smoothie(she thinks they're milkshakes lol and we'll use frozen fruit in them)but prefers fresh berries/peppers/carrots for snacks. There's worse she could be eating so I won't complain too much(however I do think it's rediculous that I can feed a family of 4 a meal of "crap" for less than a container of strawberries).Quote:

Yeah...but Timmies is "to big to fail". You go in there and it's like an extension of some people's living room, or a place to meet for folks from the boonies with their trucks and bikes

^ It's just my opinion, and I am entitled to it. Don't get worked up over it :neutral:. "Meeting at Tim's is what SOME people do....not ALL. My response was to the other poster that Tim's is too big to fail.
^no worries beachdown, for some it is an important social place. just sayin...;)

As a Brit...I've never understood the Timmy's Love...
I guess the local boozer was the place we all got together socially..
Well that explains your countrymen's ghastly teeth and exploding livers.
Clutter not being dealt with-it's not my stuff, folks, it's your stuff and it has taken over so much space. Yet I'm the one with the problem?
DH was supposed to leave for work on Jan 4th, booked his flights, packed bags blah,blah And then last night he gets a call from one of the company guys saying that he has been moved back to the 25th. And that 5 more guys have been laid off. Now guys that have only worked office jobs are being moved out to the field jobs. Men that have never worked on a physical oil rig are going to be taking over the jobs of men who have worked rigs all their lives. Things are looking scary for us.
Mate...I am with you on that. It seems to me here that people will rather entertain folks at Tim's than their house for some bizarre reason.
It's an extension of some people's living room.
