    Do you know I remember vividly a conversation I had as a kid with my father regarding snow in Incline Village, Nevada, along the northern edge of Lake Tahoe? Didn't it go almost verbatim like this?

    "Dad, I thought you were going to work...why are you back home?"
    "I can't find my car...do you know where it is?"
    "Did somebody steal it?"
    "No, I just can't find it...can you help?"
    "Did you forget where you parked (in our apartment parking lot)?"
    "No, I'm pretty sure it's somewhere over there...can you see it?"

    And do you know, when I looked out the window, I couldn't see a parking lot of cars, but only a bunch of rolling hills where cars had been buried overnight with more than two feet of snow? Do you realize how high that hill of snow became at the end of the parking lot where the snow plows eventually shoved it all? Have you ever played King of the Mountain on a hill of snow literally 25 feet high?

    Shouldn't she receive the "Can you keep it going asking ONLY QUESTIONS?" award for that post!?

    Do you mean 'shouldn't he?'

    Wouldn't that be nice? Aren't I just now making coffee with heavy cream?

    Shall I document this? The first time I've had coffee before you have? 🀣

    Would you like a ristretto latte w/ heavy cream? β˜•

    Aren't you nice? Wasn't I trying to delay calories a little since I gained a pound and a half this week?

    Can't we expect a little weight gain over the holidays? Then in the following weeks, we have to work it off, to get ready for the next holiday? πŸ˜‚

    Aren't the proactive among us losing the weight BEFORE the holidays, so the holiday "gain" merely puts us back where we were?

    Aren't I experiencing a bit of an "anomaly", in that, after plateauing for nearly 4 months, I weighed 6 pounds less this morning than I did 2 weeks ago? Aren't I still somewhat skeptical it's for real? πŸ€”

    Don't I think 3 pounds/week is too rapid a weight loss for most people, including myself? Don't I recommend trying to lose weight at maybe half a pound a week? πŸ€”

    But would it make you feel better if I had a hot fudge sundae and a slice of chocolate cake? πŸ˜‚
    Won't you please say "Yes"? πŸ€£πŸ˜‰

    Doesn't all that chocolate sound lovely? Don't I appreciate how encouraging you are?

    Don't I think I'd better eat something now since I've only had coffee? How do chaffles sound?

    Wasn't I on my way to the gym when you asked that?
    Did you have some, or decide on something else?
    Don't chaffles sound good, but for me, in addition to eggs and cheese, wouldn't I add maybe some almond flour?

    Didn't I add coconut flour? Don't I have beef stew in the crock pot for dinner?πŸ˜‹

    Aren't I having something similar for lunch? Didn't I just heat up some homemade chicken white chili that I took out of the freezer yesterday? Or should I call it goulash, since in addition to beans, it's got peas, corn and carrots?

    πŸ˜‹ Would you agree with me that it doesn't matter what you call it because by either name it sounds delicious?

    Doesn't my beef stew have potatoes, carrots, celery, shallots and Cat's not-favorite vegetable in it?

    I don't recall @Cat0703a 's not-favorite vegetable, but is it perhaps onions?
    If so, aren't I not that fond of onions either, although they're growing on me?

    Didn't she tell us just a few days ago about hating "the little green veggies that explode grossly in one’s mouth and can be made into a foul smelling and looking soup"?

    How could I forget!? 🀣
    And how could I think onion, when you had already mentioned shallots? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

    Didn't I only use shallots because I didn't have any onions? Don't I like onions (shallots, leeks) cooked but not at all raw?
  • frankwbrown
    frankwbrown Posts: 13,034 Member
    Aren't I the same? Won't I only eat raw onions if they are finely diced and in something like a salsa, where I have no choice? πŸ˜‚
    And yet, don't I like beer-battered onion rings, and sauteed/caramelized onions, and finely chopped onions in marinara sauce, chilis, stews, etc.?
    Wasn't I curious, so I did a search and found this article? (who likes sulfur anyway?)
