How often should we take a shower or bath?

I see people playing golf that wear cool hats that are different than everyone else.

How come when I put on those same hats I look like like a weirdo?

Is it an attitude thing or is it a face and head size thing? Or something else I am not aware of?

I was really looking forward to your response to these very difficult questions until I saw your answer to black licorice, which is when I found out you are not infallible. How can someone with so much wisdom get it so wrong??? Maybe this is just a temporary phase you are going through...

Aw, I am sorry to hear that. Sometimes it doesn't seem fair when parents are mad, huh? And sometimes, later on, it turns out that they had a good reason to be mad. I hope everything is better today.


...and a cherry on top.


Have you caught your beaver yet? Because that is kind of the first step. It is similar to milking a muskrat, only with a beaver, you have to milk them after 6 pm. They get grumpy otherwise.

You were going to ask me what causes this type of senior moment. The answer is a lack of cookies.


Once per day, and twice on Thursdays.


Hahaha oh man... I was going to avoid serious answers, but... hats.
Part of it is confidence. If you feel like you look silly, you won't wear the hat. The hat will wear you.
But there is a definite head shape factor there, too. There are charts of each head shape that state the type of brim/crown that will look best on each individual. But even if you go by the book and choose a hat that "ought" to work, there is still the very real possibility that once you actually place it on your head, you'll go "ehhhh... No."

I would also like to take this opportunity to formally apologize for my lack of discretion in answering the licorice question. I had black licorice one time when I was very young, and didn't like it. But I also hated eggplant when I was small, and now I realize how very deceived I had been, as eggplant is actually quite tasty. So I may in fact have everything wrong.

So I just have to decide I don't care how ridiculous I look in this hat, its my cool golf hat and I will rock it.

I figure, also, if I wear sunglasses it will automatically make it more cool as well, no matter what. Was that too many commas or not enough??


I appreciate your honesty, especially about black licorice.

am i single because i'm too awesome?

I think humans in general seem to decide that they personally don't look as cool in a hat as someone else does.
In my opinion it was the right amount of commas, but one apostrophe too few.


You're so awesome you don't even need a reason. How's THAT for awesome?

What's.... Fennel...?

From what I've read, he owed almost everybody 50 bucks.

Haha, yay! Ellie's a hat lover!

I think roasted fennel is good, but I would also put it in a root vegetable soup. Those are good in the wintertime. I have never had pfefferneüssen, but it sounds interesting.

I actually put fennel seeds in rye bread instead of caraway, because I don't like caraway (fennel is milder).

Today,
I'm alright
because we found my cellphone.

It looks like this.

Will Adam Wainwright be ready to pitch for the St. Louis Cardinals by playoff time?

..... Tourist.... I asked what FENNEL is...

Not FUNNEL....

Sadly, no. He will break his finger.


Fennel is like a carrot, if carrots looked more like underground kohlrabi (kohlrabis?) and tasted a little bit... uh, warmer? Spicier? A touch more bitter? Kind of like... imagine a carroty turnip with... you'll just have to buy one and try it.

TaDa! I just remembered the question I had forgotten yesterday.

Each night around 9pm my neighbor goes outside and starts up her car, lets it run for 15 seconds then turns off the ignition and goes back inside. This has gone on for over a year. WHY?????????????
