Did you teach your kids how to cook? My mom is a great cook, but never really taught me growing up (she is OCD and never wants anyone messing around in her kitchen). I kind of learned on my own/from my wife/cookbooks and just observing other people. I really wish I learned when I was younger.

I taught them all enough to get by. Older ones are pretty good. So my nose bleed stops about 20 minutes after the cold pack, thanks Mrs. GTO. I go to bed and when I get up this morning, I discover what they and their friends did for their hunger in the middle of the night. I had two pounds of ground beef defrosted to make tacos. They decided to grill burgers at about 2:00 a.m. They also hauled a bunch of camping gear outside and the telescope to look at stars and eat burgers. And then when the thunderstorm came, they threw it all in a heap on the back porch. And I get a note telling me not to "freak," they will clean up in the morning and go to the store for more meat.:rolleyes: Who eats burgers in the middle of the night? Men.

Sounds an awful lot like something I would have done way back when I would participate in the smoking of illegal (in 48 states) substances. I'm not saying anything, I'm just saying...

Remember, carvers, they're making memories. 10 years from now:

"Remember when we were at c4m's son's house, and his mom got a nosebleed, and we grilled burgers at 2am, and then we were looking at stars and then the storm came and we had to bail?"

Eh, you forgot their nerd quotient. Back porch mess includes the chess board and clock.

Hopefully not a mistake that I trusted the radar and hauled the sleeping bags out to dry, cause it is looking cloudy and windy out there.

WDSM, me not being an option gives you the ability to go full force after CG or Kendall Jenner.

It's going to really test their CF Bestie relationship.


Ya know...back when I wasn't married, I used to be frustrated that I wasn't the type of guy that girls would screw over their best friend in order to get a chance with me, but maybe I should have just been happy that I wasn't the type of guy that girls would screw over their best friend in order to get AWAY from me.

They say if you come across a bear in the woods, you don't have to be the fastest runner, you just have to be no the slowest. This was Nickels internet way of throwing CG to the ground as she ran away.
