Pet Peeve of the Day

Dream about making stirfry all day long, take a mental inventory of the onion, yellow pepper, broccoli, tofu, carrot, and yellow squash purchased recently for said stirfry, only to arrive home and open refrigerator drawers to find liquified veggies.

How has it really been a month since I went to the store and planned this feast? This same neglect can be applied to my “promptness” in returning phone calls and emails. To me, each voice message or email that comes to me was sent a mere day ago, not the actual month or so that you left it. May my pet peeve for liquified veggies be the karma all you have been wishing upon me.

    You are too funny! I love reading your writing=) Just wanted to thank you for something….THANK YOU for teaching me the ONLY way to get rid of the hiccups. I have used it since highschool and this weekend taught it to a doctor who said that all of those “cures” didn’t really work. Until he tried your CURE and it TOTALLY worked! He was very impressed and couldn’t wait to get back to the Mayo Clinic to show fellow doctors. Thanks Katie Toft, H.D.(hiccup doctor)=)

    I completely understand this loss of time issue. My favorite way to start a story is with, “the other day”. Meanwhile the story actually took place 5 months ago. So the phone call and email issue is similar.
    Great story miss kt.

    Wah? You can’t just put them in the blender (the veggies, not the email/voicemail)?

    Katie! I found you! You never answered my email I sent 2 years ago. But I would never wish liquified vegetables upon you. Hope all is well on the homefront. Still think of you whenever I watch When Harry Met Sally: “You’re right, you’re right, I know you’re right…”
    Drop me an email sometime. Just recently got reconnected with Thyda.
