debbele, Who's got breath for trumpets? I'm happy to be breathing (more or less) in both directions. I have a kind of voice. Not entirely audible, not entirely not. It's an effort to talk.

Yes, I went out with a friend. Mostly I schlepp back and forth to the hospital. Once in a while I'm social.

jes, Yes, further discussion revealed that the seeds were the problem. Hey, there's such a thing as seedless rye.

YOU CAN'T PUT CORNED BEEF ON WHOLE WHEAT, ALTHOUGH THAT'S BETTER THAN (GOD FORBID) white bread.

@Roberta,
Corned beef on whole wheat? Feh.

How are you feeling? I've been away for a while and have just seen this post as well as trying to navigate the new able2know.

@Gala,
In keeping with this hebonics thread, I'll answer by saying, How should I be? Going into the hospital on Sunday. Oy. The doctor better not get the hiccups. And no sneezing.

Doctors these days are very young. This person is a doctor? She doesn't look old enough to vote.

@Roberta,
I agree, the doctors, those pishers, look like they're still in high school. Who knew.

@Roberta,
That's Monday by me.

No sneezing?

No wavering of the hands of these babies there should be.

@Roberta,
Corned beef on white is, I think, the Irish way.

I'll have mine on dark rye, seedless. I do want the rye toasted though. I know. It's disgusting, but I love the kind of chocolate-y thing that happens to dark rye when it's toasted.

The Irish should live and be well. Just don't order this in a KOSHER deli.

Dark rye, pumpernickel, I can deal with. I applaud. Looking only slightly aghast at the toasted part. Zie gezundt, bethele. You can eat what you want in the privacy of your own home.

Now onto Gala and the seeds being the best part. Ich hubza in drerd with the best part. Nothing personal. It's just that no matter what I chose not to eat when I was a child, THAT was the steenkin' best part. Didn't want the potato skin on a baked potato. The best part. Didn't want the walnuts in a brownie. The best part. NOT. The chocolate surrounding the walnuts is the best part. I'm surprised she didn't try to get me to eat banana skin and orange peel.

Okay. I'm calm now. Had to get that out of my system. A mechiah.

Nothing personal? From you, it's a mitzvah.

My yiddisha mama was pretty lucky when it came to feeding her children-- we liked the seeds, the nuts, the brisket-- she put it in front of us we ate it. The one exception was tongue, which really has to be one of the most farshtinkener food products on the planet.
