We have a "Lowes Foods" no apostrophe. In the beginning the founders of Lowe's Home improvement and Lowes Foods were related, I'm not sure why one had an apostrophe and one didn't.

Maybe they were previously married and the apostrophe was part of the divorce settlement...
Ah the "Great Fire" (shhhhh, we never say the divorce settlement)--I lost the blender in the 'great fire', he got the canning jars in the 'great fire'. She got the periods while he got the apostrophes.
I've met people after they've been through the "Great Fire". You can always tell when reading their posts as they've lost all punctuation marks and the ability to use capitalization! It's not fair I tell you.
I love my Kitchen Aid mixer with grinding attachment. I call mine Frank. Well, not really--I haven't really named him.
There is nothing wrong with namng the items in our home. After all we do it for husbands. I call my Steamer "Hot Stuff." And I can't repeat some of the names for husbands. This is after all a family friendly forum.
Maybe, "She whose name must never be spoken" is a better choice.
Tomorrow--I'm opening 4 lbs of hamburger. I'm going to give it a good sniff test and look at the texture then make 12 hamburgers for another birthday celebration.
It's going to be crispy fried onions, sauteed mushrooms, colby cheese slices, fresh tomato slices, romaine lettuce, ketchup, mustard, sweet and dill pickle relish and then some store bought buns. Fire up the grill and let's have hamburgers!
Massachusetts has looked into the 'pink slime.' Starting next fall, it will no longer be part of Bostons' School cafeteria lunches. I am so glad I always packed a lunch for my kids. This is not the first problem with the food found in our school lunches. Think your child is getting real orange juice? Take a look at the ingredients. Mostly chemicals and powdered orange dust. The same junk that they serve in the hospital. Fortunately, our schools are taking a second look at what they are serving our children. And I am becoming more selective with what I put in my shopping cart. I have become an avid label reader.
I absolutely agree with you on the pink slime issue, which I've been reading about.
My ground beef, is labeled 'ground beef'--it has the dept of agriculture approval on it. Do you know what it means? I don't.
I don't buy orange juice, I only buy oranges.
I have a meat grinder for my KA and I buy a good cut of chuck and grind that. I never buy ground 'beef' at the supermarket. You never really know what you are getting. Most of the time it is the leftover trimmings from that days' work in the back room.
I bought a half a beef--I just don't know what the USDA label means or what 'ground beef' means. Not from a supermarket, from a butcher.

I haven't come up with any good names for my ex husband. I wonder what happened to him, our son turned 21 yesterday, and we didn't hear a peep from him. That would be about 3 solid years of no peep. 30 years of not talking. That would be peepless. I used to say mute, my mute.

It sort of sounds like you're going to use it whether it passes the sniff test or not! (I'm sure you meant to imply you'd use something else otherwise.)
He was married to his job and mute while at home while we were together for 18 years. He did not talk. He did not move his mouth, though, he thought he was communicating. See, this is just the same behavior he is exhibiting now with his children--nothing has changed.this is off topic but I'm trying to wrap my mind around the concept that you and ex haven't talked for 30 years and yet son is just now 21. That must have been a very strange 9 years...
And THAT is what I'm afraid of.Just note, "pink slime" legally qualifies as ground beef. It comes from real cows. That's the big problem about "pink slime," that the manufacturer does not have to disclose that PS is added to the product.
You already had 4 pounds?!? !?! Wow you must have been really, really full!!!actually I've had 4 lbs of it already and it was great--though I didn't look at it in a microscope or magnifying glass.

I know what you mean, perhaps what Sue Grafton refers to as "making social mouth noises," but without communicating anything worth listening to.
Well the pink slime qualifies as "real beef" as far as the FDA is concerned. It makes you wonder about purchasing ground products at all...
