Last night i was going through our cabinets looking for ingredients for Dans bday cake, and i needed butter milk. Last yr i made dan a cake and it also called for buttermilk, so i had some left over...................... i called my dad to ask if it expires only to find out what i made dans disastrous red velvet cake with last year, was not in fact butter milk, it was butter milk POWDER, which is used to MAKE butter milk by mixing it with water!!!!! woops! Hopefully this yrs cake will be better! ive gotten a lot better at this cooking thing!
I dropped bindi off this morning and she was happy to c me go! such a kid!!
So i found this interesting list online, and its so ture..
“Top 10” list of stereotypes I see and contributions from other police spouses about how on or off the mark these viewpoints are.
1. We never sleep or eat and can’t function well because our minds are so consumed with fear for our officers.
2. We think we are above the law / we are above the law / we will be our friends and neighbors own personal arm of the law.
3. Our husband will cheat on us and our marriages are doomed.
4. We have no personal lives or identities – we are known as “Mrs. Officer.”
5. We are also always “on duty” as an extension of our husband.
6. If we live in a nice house or have nice things, our officers are “on the take.”
7. As their friends / neighbors / acquaintances, we’ll always help them out of “trouble.”
8. Our husbands are public property, and as such must always enforce the law or entertain at parties in a moment’s notice, on- or off-duty.
9. We are either into the kink or masochistic for wanting to be married to an officer.
10. All we want to talk about is how evil police are.
Number 10 i feel strongly about here are what some others say about it:
“…And don't tell me that you think all the officers in my husband's town are jerks (or worse). Don't you realize that you're putting my husband in the group?” -- Alison, Texas
“… Then when I tell people the department he works at for some reason people think it's ok to make some sort of rude comment about our officers. Why do people think it's ok to make a stupid remark? I don't make some smart-ass comments about their spouse selling cars for a living and ask if all salesmen are shady!” -- Michelle, Georgia
“When I tell people (he’s an officer, they) think it's ok to make some sort of rude comment about our officers..."they just pick on teenagers" or some other snotty remark. Why do people think it's ok to make a stupid remark? I don't make some smart-ass comment about THEIR spouse selling cars for a living and ask if ALL salesmen are shady!” -- Michelle, Georgia
My personal favorite – “My taxes pay his salary,” mentioned when someone wants my husband (or any officer) to do something for them. -- Renee, Los Angeles
“The other day my husband was cleaning our cars and my neighbor had the nerve to say "can you clean my car next?" She continued, "I want to see my tax dollars hard at work." -- Jessica, California
