I do hope that the white refrigerator cooperates, acts cool and doesn't 'speak' too loudly. And, predictably, the door on my fridge is on the wrong side. I really should swap it around, but I'm just too lazy and besides, the fridge may protest a bit too much :)<br />Thank you for such a nice comment, Maria. <br />May you have a most peaceful and pleasant weekend.<br />In kindness, Garyklahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-29057010426574825972011-08-07T00:41:56.014+00:002011-08-07T00:41:56.014+00:00Howdy Hawk,

I spent the week at my father's house helping him resolve his refrigerator problems...<br /> My father's old fridge was just too tired to keep things cool. It too, had its own language ~ and I swear it knew exactly when to chime in with a gurgle or grunt. I used to say that it was my mother adding a comment to our conversations...the sounds were that perfectly timed! <br />Dad ordered a stainless one, but the handle was on the wrong side and couldn't be switched as with others. So, it had to be returned. I don't think my mother liked the color ;o)<br />Dad now has a white one ... so far, it's on the quiet side. <br /><br />Thanks for the blog fun :o)<br />smiles to you,<br />MariaMariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196112590905903539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-86971937252958190072011-08-06T00:56:08.322+00:002011-08-06T00:56:08.322+00:00Hi Y'all,

Hi Rebecca,
Awe thanks. S...Yay, it's THE SNEE,<br />Hi Rebecca,<br />Awe thanks. So you will realise that I wasn't really self-promoting like some of those really funny, incredibly popular, must-read or else they will get super pissed off if you don't go and praise them and adore them, type bloggers :)<br />Yes indeed, Rebecca, don't ever get 'stuck' into thinking that those expensive 'non-stick' frying pans are going to be any better. Great idea using the old ones as solar lamps. I'd try the same thing here, but solar lamps of any description, over here, in lil' ol' Britain, are a lost cause. Plus, when we do get the occasional bit of sunshine, those damned birds shit on the solar panels and screw everything up.<br />I have mice and crows in my garden and they speak with an English accent. Thanks for the cooking wishes, my friend. And, seriously, I'm glad you've been smiling. That's a most positive result.<br />Have a peaceful and pleasant weekend.<br />In kindness, Gary :)klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-48728459753633460202011-08-05T22:25:43.292+00:002011-08-05T22:25:43.292+00:00Hi there Jane and Lance Hattatt.
And again, I'...Hi there Jane and Lance Hattatt.<br />And again, I'm struggling to find appropriate adjectives to describe the euphoric ecstasy, as in, an overwhelming feeling of great happiness or joyful excitement. Indeed, my illustrious new friends and your dedicated team of titillating typists, I would have replied sooner, sadly, can you believe it, my internet crashed at the crucial moment I was going to formulate one of my much sought after replies to a comment.<br />I'm devastated to know that the CP's have been such a distraction to your typing pool. I'm guessing the CP's were doing a rousing rendition of 'You've got to fight for your right to paaaaarty!...' by those legends of Crap, I mean Rap, The Beastie Boys. And yes indeed, "Whips will have to be cracked!!" I note you didn't mention anything about leather or handcuffs or snorkels, for that matter.<br />Yes, the oven continues to bring music to my shy and humble ears. In fact, I attempted to make some baking products to the gentle sounds of 'Roll' over Beethoven', by Electric Light Orchestra and not the Beatles version. <br />Okay, try to show off with your artsy fartsy culture. The fridge is singing and dancing to 'Ice, Ice Baby', by 'Vanilla Ice', not a posh fridge, you understand.<br />And the sink has gone down 'Memory Drain', by singing that Gene Kelly favourite, 'Singing in the Drain..'klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-33187995570161066922011-08-05T22:18:42.264+00:002011-08-05T22:18:42.264+00:00Hi Gary

Misguided thinking led me to believe the more expensive, and well-reviewed, the pot, the longer it would last and the easier it would be cleaned. WRONG! Now I buy the cheap ones. and use them as solar lamps when I'm finished to make me feel good about myself. The mice and crows seem to like that too.
