Hello everyone!! Have you missed me? I've missed you all - but things have been so hectic and busy that I barely remember to get dressed in the right order anymore. Anyway, since I haven't written in such a long time, something earth shattering must have happened to get me to the keyboard, right? You be the judge.
I have been married to the same lovely woman for almost 9 years now. We don't agree on everything, but on most things, we're pretty close on. One thing we can NEVER agree on however is the "Used Milk" phenomenon. What is "Used Milk?" If you don't already have an idea, I will explain it to you.
Most people like a nice bowl of cereal. I could probably live on it if I had to. As most people do, I enjoy my cereal bathed in milk. I believe that is actually how it is meant to be enjoyed. As such, depending on the cereal you are enjoying at the time, the milk takes on the flavor of the cereal. This is especially true of things like Cocoa Pebbles, or Cocoa Puffs, or even better, Honey Smacks.
I look forward to the end of the bowl as much as the cereal itself because I LOVE to drink the milk. Janel equates this as slightly less than a felony. Her argument is "DON'T DRINK THAT - IT'S USED MILK." Maybe so - but I am the one who used it!! If she sees me or any one of the kids even ATTEMPT to drink the milk, she makes retching vomiting sounds and looks for things to throw at us.
Now, when I eat soup, I don't just eat the noodles or beef and veggies and then throw out the soup. If it's Chicken Noodle, I don't consider it "used broth". Heck, even leftover gravy or spaghetti sauce is meant to be sopped up with a biscuit, or bread.
So my friends - I throw it to you - what's your take on the "used milk" debate? Do you drink the milk after the cereal, or do you retch and vomit at the thought. Please comment on Facebook, or shoot me a tweet @billwinters18.
I have to get to the bottom of this.
Now I shall go enjoy some cereal, since Janel has already left for work, I can drink my used milk in peace.
