A BACHELOR’S QUESTIONS—

Is there any way to handle plastic wrap where it will not instantly consort itself into a useless glob?

Where do you stunningly tidy housewives hide your dust?

Is it possible to operate a kitchen without a pair of pliers?

Does prepared food have to be that salty?

I make my bed everyday. Why?

What is the volume of a dab?

How do you enjoy your meal when it takes four times as long to concoct as it does to consume?

Why do my sparkling windows get embarrassingly streaky in the sun shine?

How do you know what is inside that frosty lump that just emerged from the back of the freezer?


It’s no wonder some bachelors wander around in a constant state of perplexity.

I have never been able to conquer plastic wrap... I use glass containers with plastic lids... keeps things fresher... the real question there is that it sticks to itself but rarely to the container.
the dust goes on the dustrag coated with endust.. use your old t shirts and throw them out.. after they look so bad you dont want anyone else to see them/
You should also have a screwdriver with switchable regular and phillips ends.
The salt hides the horrible taste of most prepared food.
Because if you die... do you want your kids to see your bed?
A dab is a heaping tablespoon.
Eat more slowly...
Use newpaper or cheap paper towels.. cloth diapers work great.
I write on the plastic with a good marker, ink or wax. Surprises are always fun however. be creative.

Only complaint about plastic wrap- How is it the serrated edge can sever your knuckle tendons but doesn't even come close to damaging the plastic wrap itself.

As for salt... You can find the shaker in my clenched hand of my rigored body in my unmade bed...

carry on

I chose to wait and see what would come of this one. Laughed out loud at these comments. There is a manufacture of the plastic wrap with an attempt to clean up the issue. The have a little zipper cutter thingy. But I only think it is available on the 2.4 million feet roll of the stuff.
Craig's salt comment was awesome. My same feelings are for cheese.
Thanks, BW

You all need to try a product by GLAD company. It is called Press'n Seal. Why, if you only speak Spanish or French you'll be able to read the directions just like we will! I only dust the places where my company might be frequenting, maybe once every 3 weeks. Have more fun things to do than dust. I use a heavy table knife for a screwdriver if I need one in the kitchen. Pliers would need to be fetched from the garage. Rinse your canned veggies in a colander if the salt bothers you. You don't want to buy salt free veggies!! YUCK! Most of the time I make the bed. If not just shut the bedroom door. A dab and a dollup are about the same. Whatever you want them to be at that particular time. You are to dine at my home. Not gobble. Most of my viddles are made from scratch. Your windows are always streaked. You just notice the streaks when the sun shines. Unidentified foods in the freezer, hummmmm. Ever put sloppy joes on speghetti??? It looks about the same as speghetti sauce when frozen. Labeling is the answer. The older I get the more I don't sweat the small stuff. Life is too short. Lynn

Try this... keep some of those get well cards cards we all get when not quite up to par in an immediately accessable drawer.... then when someone surprises you with a visit, just whip those suckers out of that drawer and stand them on top the tv, and your unexpected viasitors will think you have been feeling toooo bad to clean !!!!
