9 Strange Foods I Ate As A Kid

November 28, 2016 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Considering the love affair we had with wood paneling and the preponderance of green, yellow, and brown kitchen appliances, it should come as no surprise that food was different back in the Seventies and Eighties.  Everyone was still blissfully unaware of the damage processed foods were potentially doing to our bodies.  People could still smoke […]

The Best Breakfast Cereals of All Time

August 30, 2016 by acrockofschmidt 2 Comments

I recently purchased a package of Alpha-bits, something I hadn’t done in quite some time.  Alpha-bits is an […]

March 1, 2016 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

The long wait is finally over.  After two full months plus a day, thanks mister leap year, I am finally able to eat chocolate once again.  I haven’t been this excited since high school grad night only this time I KNOW I’m getting what I want. This was hard.  HARD!  The past two months were […]

Bavarian Suicide

November 10, 2015 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

I’m the type of person who is tolerated more so than liked (lots of heads nodding).  Mothers-in-law are notoriously difficult (lots of heads nodding emphatically).  You might be surprised, then, to learn my mother-in-law has entrusted me with killing her.
