MrG has a Cold! Can someone please take him for the night??

[ScreamingMeemie]

He is really a crankster when he is sick...but he's cute, and that should make up for it, right? :hi:

[WI_DEM]

1. I've always wondered

Does Mr. G post on DU?

[ScreamingMeemie]

9. He says he has a username, but won't tell me what it is...

;) He's not an active poster at any rate...but he does read DU. :hi:

[sui generis]

2. how 'bout some home made chicken soup?

chunks of cooked chicken, bouillion (the paste kind in a jar), a small amount of fresh onion, celery, a handful of rice, barley if you have it, some kind of noodles maybe, a bay leaf, and the saltiest crackers you can find. I like to get it all simmered for about 20 minutes, take it off and stir in a beaten egg and top with fresh cut chives. Tap a drop (one or two) of tabasco into the soup or a dust of cayenne to punch up the flavor without noticing it's there.

Adjust water and ingredients for desired thickness; some of the starch will cook out of the rice / pasta and thicken it. You can also add a little cream / milk if you want to make a "cream of" soup, but people with colds have enough problems to worry about without a lot of cream giving them the trots.

And it's not just for the sick and dying you know - it's pretty good stuff when you're feeling healthy too!

10. Thanks, sui! I'm always looking for new soup recipes. I was going

to make Lemon Chicken Soup, but I think I'll try this! :hi:

I take it that's your way of saying you don't want him...:shrug:

[sui generis]

17. I've got one already . . .

but I could sure use a spare! Is he willing to be a stay at home house hubbie? Will pay his bills, cook his meals and give him an allowance too!

I just want someone to fold the frigging laundry and play with the critters! I suck at laundry and Mr. Sui claims he can't physically see it due to a genetic defect in his brain or something. I think he's pulling my leg.

:evilgrin:

3. Does he cook and clean?

I have some chicken and dumplings in the fridge. Homemade. If we lived closer to each other, I'd run them over to you.

Hey, I saw his photo. He's quite a hunk. I'll take him off you hands for a couple of days. ;-)

:hi:

[sui generis]

6. ohh hhh h hhh

I also forgot about home made matzo balls.

And spaetzle for you German / Austrian descendants (little bitty dumplings)

[ScreamingMeemie]

11. Only when he absolutely has to. He did vacuum a rug last night, and

he's an awesome handy man. :hi:

[sui generis]

18. okay okay, Mrs. Grumpy is trying to give him away so

let's see this famous photo . . .

:hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

23. Here he is...

[ScooterTramp]

31. You're both adorable!

:)

[sui generis]

32. ha! okay you said he only cooks when absolutely necessary

so does Mr. Sui. I have been on my deathbed before and all I got was a stupid t-shirt and some left over chinese takeout.

Do you think necessity would drive them to cook or would the neighborhood Church's chicken make top national sales that week?

:evilgrin:

[ScreamingMeemie]

33. I think I would guess the latter..

:hi:

[LynneSin]

4. Did you do those "for better or worse, in sickness and in health" vows?

SUCK IT UP!

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. Hey, he's not a Packer fan (only on those days when I make him be)

:shrug: We were married in a civil ceremony, those vows don't count, right? ;)

[Mrs_Beastman]

5. Give him NyQuil...

the 13th step...as Dennis Leary says. He will slepp like a baby and if MrG is anything like MrB, so cute were they are sleeping.

[madrchsod]

7. nyquil with a

whiskey chaser, he`ll sleep like a baby......

[Maddy McCall]

8. And a benadryl or two.

:evilgrin:

[ScreamingMeemie]

13. MrG is adorable when he is sleeping. I love it when he bundles up in

a fuzzy robe and falls asleep in the chair. :hi: I won't make you take him...you've got your hands full I surmise. ;)

[Mrs_Beastman]

16. Most of the time, Mr B's an angel

he bought me roses yesterday...and did dishes. Don't let everyone know, his reputation will be shot.

[ScreamingMeemie]

24. I won't say a word....

Have you seen matcom, btw? :shrug: ;)

[sui generis]

21. you would miss him.

you better keep him then. And you said he's a handy handyman? Mr. Sui and Mr. G would run off together, the pool palace would finally get finished, the hidden garden would have everything built and the there would be a deck with a twenty foot slipper slide from the roof of the pool palace into the pool, and OH MY GAWD!!!! it would be that swapping spouses thing. I would have to come live with you. We could even have a reality teevee show.

You better keep him. Could be trouble.

[ScreamingMeemie]

22. Are you a procrastinator...I'm a procrastinator and I love to cook too!

This could work out to be awesome!! :bounce:

[sui generis]

30. that could be bad

then Mr. Sui and Mr. G would have to come back and widen the doors for us . . .

and yes, I can procrastinate anything. In fact, I've had to pee since last Monday. :rofl:

oh, I also laugh at my own jokes. A lot. Hope that's okay. :shrug: :spray:

[ScreamingMeemie]

34. Hey, you've gotta be your own biggest fan...

I'm up with it. :hi:

[redqueen]

14. I'd love to!

:evilgrin:

;)

[ScreamingMeemie]

25. He would love to know that.

:7

[arwalden]

15. Lawrence Nightengale At Your Service...

I'll gladly take care of your Mr. Grumpy for you.

[ScreamingMeemie]

26. Can I send him C.O.D.?

;) :hi:

[Left Is Write]

19. I don't know...he'd have to be AWFULLY cute

to make up for the crankies.

Will he get up early and do an exercise video with me like Mr. LiW does?

[ScreamingMeemie]

27. He'll get up and watch you..that's for sure.

;)

[sundog]

20. me!

I've seen his pic :evilgrin:

:P

[ScreamingMeemie]

28. And in return, I'd put a sundog pic in my sig, perhaps.

:hi:

[ScooterTramp]

29. Erm, he'd better be really cute.
