    I remember that green bean casserole is gross

    I think you might be mis-remembering -

    Fresh crisp green beans sautéed in olive oil with lots of garlic, sliced almonds, and a bit of salt. That’s how you eat green beans 😃

    What no butter or bacon grease or crumbled bacon - eh - I’ll give yours a shot -

    The bacon grease sounds delicious actually. I could cook it that way

    It’s kinda Texas Roadhouse style and I do like their greenbeans.

    That’s a real place? I have never been there

    Oh it’s real. And my daughter wrote a paper on it. And I quote: “And on a birthday they put you on a saddle which is very fun.”

    I don’t think this mentioned all the animal heads on the walls. Which, during a field trip there, we were told were fake because real ones would be cruel.

    This is amazing

    I especially liked the part about the free dessert "which is so very good". :)

    I remember howling at the moon every time I saw a full moon as a kid. Admittedly, I still do but it’s usually under my breath bc the world can’t know I am like this… a…. beast! Rawr uwu
    Anyway, it’s toasty in here and I’m consuming toast
    delectable
    Respectable
    I also remember eating carrots like a bunny and my siblings and I would race each other for who could nibble the fastest. 🤦🏻‍♀️ And of course the obligatory bugs bunny “what’s up doc?”
    Space jam changed my life

    I remember driving down a country road clear dark night when I spotted the moon being full and bigger than I had ever seen it before and it seemed to be a beckon asking me to follow it as it moved across the sky. I actually did just drive in it's direction for a while, keeping it pretty much as forward as roadways allowed. As I did, I wondered where I would end up if I just continued to drive that way until the moon set.

    Yes. When I was in Elementary school I read a book called cute is a four letter word and it was about a girl named Clara who decided to have year of the Clara and she became a cheerleader or something and then dated the Jock and she had a cousin named Halcyon who looked like a model on her day off

    I remember my grandfather keeping a batch of sourdough yeast alive in his fridge. Every time we'd visit, he'd make sourdough pancakes and sourdough grilled cheese sandwiches.

    I remember my 7th grade crush, *Greg, telling my bff "he wouldn't touch me with a 10 foot pole."

    I remember running into *Greg in a bar when I was 21, he bought me a drink and I declined. As I was leaving I stopped and asked him if he knew who I was, he said "No, should I?" I smiled and walked away.

    *Name was not changed to protect privacy

    Peachesnstuff's memory reminded me that I learned at an early age about life and death of pets and people. But it never got any easier!

    It doesn't. Even if you're prepared for it.

    I remember my dog dying when I was about 6 years old. We buried him in the back yard and I'd go sit with him every day. I'd bring him snacks, read him books, bring his favorite toys, and even bring a blanket when it was cold outside
    ❤️❤️❤️

    I used to cry over my cat while she was still alive because I understood her eventual death was inevitable. Yes, I still grieve things before they end. Especially summer

    Yup. You and I have had this conversation before. I often tell my dogs to please outlive me bc I don't ever want to feel that pain. 💔

    Make your next pet a tortoise, which often live well over 100 years, and this'll never be a problem again.

    Plus I would have to stay alive for 200 years to take care of them or my ghost would walk the earth with guilt
