Gal.  For some reason all the other ladies got scared off ages ago.

I'm going to have to think about this one.  I only saw it once and that was in college.  It wasn't my cup-o-tea then, and it isn't now.

But I can see past personal disagreements and other issues to see that this was a well made film.  I guess if we don't rate this by "historical" significance or anything like that, for me this is probably about a 3-4, but I'm going to give it some thought before I subumit.

Regardless, it's a movie about soap and I wonder if our local soap maker @Rhapsody98 has an opinion on this one?

It’s been years since I’ve seen it. I have no memory of how accurate it is to soap making.  But the lye burn is total fiction.  

Of course I'm in!

@Rhapsody98 wanna try your hand at some survivor?

It looks fun, but keep in mind I go back to work at a second job next week and craft fair season starts in May, AND at the end of May I’m traveling.  Do you think I’ll have the time?

I wasn't crazy about Lima out of a can when growing up but did learn to tolerate them in some dishes.  Then one day this friend tells me that he and the girlfriend are getting up super early the next day so they can go to the farmer's market and be one of the first people in line to get fresh lima beans.  And I'm like: "why in the heck would you need to do that?"  So he explains to me that fresh lima beans are amazing! and people come from far and wide to get these things at the farmer's market the day they're going to show up and an hour after the market opens they are all gone.  I was extremely skeptical.  So my friend shows up the next day with these pods that have HUGE lima beans in them.  Each bean is an inch and a half long at least, and he makes some dish with them and they taste amazing!  Favas are really similar.  Comparably as good when fresh and just terrible out of a can.

You have my deepest sympathies...

Everything's better from the farmers market.  There's a guy at our local farmers market that has the absolute best summer squash I've ever had.    But my favorite vendor is the goat cheese guy.  Just superb.  His Persimmon Cinnamon is so good you can eat it like ice cream.

Montana.  Dad shot one every year.

Montana was an amazing place to visit.  I’m not sure I’d want to live there long term, but a couple months might be nice.

I liked hamburger helper as a kid.

Of course all our burger was elk, so that probably helped.

Elk is delicious!  Why all the elk? Where did you grow up?

Every imaginable cut of beef cooked into submission due to my parents not understanding that medium rare <> uncooked

You should have seen the hockey pucks my MIL cooked, and had the gall to call it steak.

my dad loved liver & onions. but his wife hated it, so he only got it once a year. i had to have it at one point. i think he was just hoping to have an ally. didn't happen. nasty. i have never tried to eat liver again, nor will i ever, and i'm still not a fan of onions. 

Liver should only be eaten if it 1) Comes from a chicken, 2) is fried.  Blech.

Hamburger Helper. 
 

Still makes me cringe just hearing those words together 

"We didn't have any hamburger, so it's just helper."

I didn't want to junk of the werewolf game with food posts.  But @JVOSS mentioned that his grandma ate a lot of milk soup, and that he hated it.  What other things did you guys have to eat as kids that you hated, or that your parents loved and you never cared for?  

Mine is soup beans!  Often paired with cornbread (which is fine), soup beans are basically beans cooked within an inch of their life.  Sort of like liquidy refried beans, only they taste like literal dirt.   If they tasted at all good, you might describe them as creamy, you don't even chew them.  They are absolutely disgusting.  But, they are also dirt cheap, so my mom learned to love them as a kid because that's what was available.

Honestly, looking at the picture made me gag.  

Let's commiserate!

I love KFC but could never bring myself to eat one of these when they were here. They also released a Pizza one here which was two zinger fillets with pepperoni, pizza sauce and cheese. 

Also, everyone needs to watch the KFC movie if they've never seen it 

 

WTF did I just watch?

Ehh...he ate what he wanted, which was sometimes healthy, but more often than not, pretty crappy.  He also had a massive, serious heart condition that he hadn't disclosed to everyone at the time of his death, so it didn't exactly come out of nowhere, even if we all felt that it was too soon.

lol, yeah, I'm good to go.  She was the first person I told this morning when I discovered the good news, and kept her up-to-date when the possibility of a community "event' first got brought up.  So far I've gotten a smirk and a bit of an eye roll, so I figure I'm locked in. 

If I remember from this morning, you asked me if *I* wanted one, which leads me to believe you might have some sort of life insurance policy out on me that I know nothing about.

Well, if you have ONE, like maybe once a month, and eat an otherwise healthy diet, it's not going to kill you.

I mean, we can debate how it tastes, as that's a subjective thing, but it's not like you take one bite and suddenly your heart goes "TOO MUCH SODIUM, MUST EXPLODE!"

I would like to point out that this is essentially what happened to my father, after a dinner at Captain D’s .

@Rhapsody98 notice his sudden backtracking 

Turns out you can be married for 16 years and still be surprised!

only if they really wanna play.  I would want anyone on vgs who is vgs proper besides just werewolf games to try it out if they wanted.  Not saying that they aren't vgs proper, but i know they came on for werewolf.  

At this point, I think I'm only here for werewolf.  LOL

I guess game night counts.

honestly, i can't remember, but i know it was thought that I was british because of @OptOut!  If you can find it i will give you the best role in the game..........jk, i won't do that, but i will laugh if u find it!

 

Edit:  maybe @Brickman thought it because of my obsession with the UK?  idk, was it you @Brickman?

Good lord, if being obsessed with the UK makes one British according to Brickman, then I’m the most British person he’s ever met.

Also, I’m in!

I'm a derp.  Ignore me.  LOL

@PuppyWafflesOh no!  I am a sad pony now.   I will certainly let you know if we need a backup.
