You are awesome   I love chicken pot pie!

OT but just wanted to recommend that you purchase the practice booklet for Praxis put out by the ETS. Of course it could be different now than when I took it 13-14 years ago, but for me the many of the questions in the practice booklet were identical to those on the test. Good luck!

Lol I can't send DH... He comes home with junk food and hardly anything that was on the list. Plus he's a cripple (hurt his hand/wrist/arm really bad while loading an excavator onto his semi for work) and would probably grab one thing off of the list "everything needed two hands to grab" lol

I can't send DH either. I sent him for a few things the other day and he came home with melting chocolate, 3 packs of strawberries, a box of spam and a CASE of vienna sausage.

Thank you  

I did the practice tests for the praxis 1 already and I did really well on them. After I do the actual test, I'll start doing the practice tests for the praxis 2. I'm taking it for English, so hopefully it won't be too bad since I will have just taken the praxis 1 for reading and writing

  omg! LMAO!!!



SO is good when I send him to the (farmers) market. But, if I send him down to the supermarket he is a dumbass... Not quite as bad as yours though! lmao

Lol well he did get what I sent him for, so I will give him credit for that

I only go to the supermarket when cooking for my parents, they are afraid of the farmer's market  

SO tries to cut costs in the supermarket because everything so expensive and buys the cheapest brand on the list.... and then my parents get pissed off. Or instead of buying "frozen veggies" he buys a bunch of veggies and says "cut them up and freeze them!!"

Lol why are they scared of the farmer's market? I wish we had them here. The only thing I'd be worried about there would be meat, just bc I have a friend from Panama who went to visit her parents and got stuck there for 2 weeks in the hospital bc she ate some meat from an outdoor market and got food poisoning.   she said the meat only cost her 56 cents... I was like what did you expect? lol

lmao i've been hospitalized 3 times for eating in the market.... damn good food!   


They are worried that the veggies have more bugs in them than at the supermarket and about the meat.

If you know where to go though you get fresh everything (like, they kill the chicken/pig that morning, fresh) and the veggies are so much nicer. You just gotta watch what you eat when you eat out on the street!

Lol yeah, I told her I would have been suspicious of a 56 cent steak myself... Or hamburger, whatever it was.
