Hi Dave,
DD> I like all Cheddars. And the taste/texture that add to burgers. I'm
DD> not sure I've ever met anyone who prefers a plain burger over a
DD> chssesy one.
RH> You've met me; I'd rther have a plain burger (topped with pickle,
RH> tomato, lettuce and maybe a slice of onion.
DD> How does it feel to be in a monority? Bv)= My favoured burger
I am in other respects too--left handed for one.
DD> toppings are Tomato, Mayonnaise (never Miracle Wimp) and Onion. Oh.
DD> and bacon.
Never Miracle Whip; don't even let the stuff come into my house. For the
past few years we've been using an all natural avocado oil based mayo,
bought at either Sam's Club or Wegman's. I still like Duke's but they
started adding BhT to their mayo a while ago so found this as an
alternative.
DD> Mustard if fine on other things but not my burger. And ketchup is
Agreed, mustard doesn't belong on a burger.
for DD> French fries that are badly done when there's no Tartar Sauce
to be DD> had.
I prefer my fries with a bit of salt or malt vinegar.
DD> Wendy's is a regular stop for me. The $5 Biggie Bag is quite the
DD> bargain in this time of high priced fats food.
RH> It's a rare stop for us; we prefer C-F-A or Popeye's--stopped at one of
RH> those in Fredericksburg on Sunday. Yesterday was the 49th anniversary
RH> of a special date for us so we went out for seafood (which we'd done on
RH> that day).
DD> Didja get the flounder sandwich or the shrimp basket? I'm not a fan of
RH> No, the Wendy's stop was a separate one from the seafood one. Got
DD> I was referencing Popeyes (no apostrophe) when asking about flounder
DD> as that is featured as its fish sandwich and they have several shrimp
DD> offerings.
No, we go there for the chicken. Steve had some Bojangles chicken
recently and said that Popeyes is much better but the BoBerry biscuit is
better than the Popeyes plain biscuit.
RH> shrimp and grits at the seafood place, a regular burger (didn't
RH> realise it came with cheese) at Wendy's. They used to do them to
order RH> as you ordered--many years ago.
DD> They still do. Depends on which burger you order. .... Ooooopsie. Went
DD> to look at Wendy's menu to see which burgers come without cheese. And
DD> found only one poor little Jr. Single down at the bottom of the list.
Have to remember that if we go again.
RH> crispy or the DD> (newish) blackened.
RH> I'm not a fan of blackened foods.
DD> My jury is still out ob blackened. But I'm leaning in your direction.
DD> 8<----- CUT ----->8
DD> time I was riding with my brother and he pulled into a Hardee's. I
DD> asked for, as a joke, a peach milkshake as my beverage selection.
DD> Surprise - that's what came out the window. And it was guite tasty.
RH> Sounds good. I know C-F-A does them also.
Cook Out around here is known for their large variety (I think 40 some)
of shakes but they're take out only so we've not tried them.
DD> Wendy's ain't my place for shakes. The "Frosty" is too thick to
drink DD> (like DQ's "Blizzard") so it's hard to manage whilst driving.
True, but we either go in and sit down or just sit in the vehicle until
done. My favorite Blizzard is the mint M&M.
DD> 8<----- EDIT ----->8
DD> Oh, I've got a C-Pap as well. I told them where to stick the Bi-Pap.
DD> In the end, whether it's C-Pap or Bi-Pap both are a PITA.
RH> Agreed but I can tolerate the concentrator.
DD> As in oxygen concentrator? I have a portable one of those with both
DD> 12V and 110V chargers. It's handy, if a bit bulky. I take it to work
DD> with me and if I'm going to a restaurant. It's good for a bit over an
DD> hour before needing the batteries charged.
Yes, an O2 concentrator, sits on the floor. I need it only at night, a
cotinuous flow. Bought an extra battery for the portable but generally
run it off of AC.
DD> My main problem with the C-PAP is getting untangled when it's time for
DD> a potty break. Bv)=
RH> I can see that; I've got a 20' tube (mostly rolled up, about 8' of
RH> actual length) on my home machine. Since it's so noisy, we keep it
RH> outside the bedroom and just run the long tubing to my side of the bed.
RH> My travel machine is quieter so we just put an 8' tube on that. It
RH> rides mostly in the camper but has gone on other trips (Alaska, Utah,
RH> New York) with us.
DD> My C-PAP is pretty quiet. So that's not a worry. The whole thing came
DD> in "travel bag" packaging so I assume I could take it on the road
DD> should the need arise.
Yes, Steve has taken his to Israel and Guiana as well as shipboard 3
times and numberous other flying and driving trips. It's a lot smaller
and quieter than the concentrator.
DD> I don't know yet what was wrong with me - it may have been nerve
DD> related. I had synapses firing randomly making my body parts twitch
DD> and jump and making it really hard to type and darned near impossible
DD> to text. My head was swollen and my eyes were "bulging". And I've
DD> come through with some vision damage. Going to have to get new
DD> prescriptions for my glasses
