Pluggers by Rick McKee for November 14, 2022

‘Tuther day when visiting the inlaws fil and I made a beer and wine run and mil calls out, "Don’t you do anything that ends up putting me back in the dating pool!" Tru story!

But… but… He bearly eats ice creams.

When his wife finds out, he’s in for a “Rocky Road”!

Best to get an Ice Cream cone for the wife ! Do you remember her favorite flavor ?

yeah but…..she’s at home with a half gallon…….

LOL… That is one big ice cream cone, too.

‘Cause working on something else that’s sweet.

My special treats are things my wife doesn’t eat, like hot Italian sausage and candied ginger.

Or ANY kind of junk food that’s only allowed in the house when she’s visiting relatives out of town. ;)

This Plugger goes to Krispy Kreme!

Double cone with anything and chocolate on the bottom. I prefer the aftertaste of chocolate.

Guilty…. Freezer is in the basement, wife has trouble with stairs.

Living alone I only cheat on myself… but I’m getting better at not cheating.

I feel that way when I sneak over to Nickey’s Red Hot on Ogden Ave. without asking my girlfriend if she wants anything. I’m also not supposed to be eating at Nickey’s Red Hots over on Ogden.

…until he sees her with an ice cream of her own.

If one cheats by eating something they are not supposed to – they are only cheating their self.

I say this as someone who is limited by a variety of medical conditions as to what they are can eat (and husband has the same medical conditions) – as few carbs as possible, as little meat/fat as possible, as little cruciferous vegetables as possible – and several other "good vegetables. I figured out that we can have as much as want of mushrooms and string beans as they seem to be only foods not on any of our no-no lists.
