Mel, I love it. The grammar bitch. That is priceless. My dad was so strict about us using proper grammar. If you said ain't you were in trouble. People will say "ain't got no." It drives me crazy. I'm with you. Mousey you have so many post you must not have anything to do so come to Texas & help me cook. We are mouse friendly here.

Another favorite: Butter my buns and call me biscuit.
