GAS Attitude?

Do you have a GAS attitude? Do you really care about things that are going on around you? My co-worker and I talked about how some people just don't GAS!! If you are wondering what the heck I'm talking about is that some people just don't "Give A Sh** (or a squat!) Should they take "Beano"?

My job is customer service in a utility billing office. Earlier this week we had to disconnect a resident for non-payment. This person cussed worse than a sailor! She demanded that the electricity be turned on immediately. She really didn't care what words were spewing out of her mouth. She told me her mother was sitting right beside her. I thought to myself what the heck?? Sad situation, but true.

Today I had to move my car at work because the guys were cutting the grass. Ok, so as I am moving the car they continue to do the "weed-eater"!! GEEZ LOUISE!!! Can't you see me moving my car like you asked? All I hear is little pebbles hitting the car as I about have a heart attack. The car recently had hail damage and I just got it back from the shop and it looks like brand new! So here we go again ... the "I don't GAS" attitude in full force.
Take time to care about others and respect their space. The good news is God woke my family up today. I choose to be happy.There are so many people hurting in this world. I hope that all the mothers out there reading this have a wonderful Mother's Day!

Peace out,
Jett

Jett's Grilled Cabbage Recipe




Ingredients



Hello everyone! It's almost Spring and time to fire up the grill. Here's a great way to fix cabbage. Let me know how ya like it!

Hugs- Jett

How to make it

  • Tear the heavy duty foil off to have 1 large sheet.
  • Fold up sides of the foil to hold the cabbage
  • You might have to work with it to fit it all in.
  • Add your seasonings with the butter or margarine
  • Wrap another large piece of foil around the first piece to resemble a large hand-bag.
  • Wrap the foil down so when you set this on the grill you can pick it up and move if necessary.
  • (*CAUTION - USE TONGS - IT WILL BE HOT*)
  • Leave on medium heated grill rack and put the lid on for approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour

  • Thank you in advance for stopping by!

Hershey's Perfect Chocolate Cake


This was definitely the "perfect" cake for chocolate lovers! Instead of using the boiling water it called for, I used coffee. Great flavor and so moist!! This had to be one of the easiest cakes I've ever made!

Great cake for any event!

I Made It!!!


Have you ever seen a recipe and thought ... Wow! That sounds soooo good? Well I saw a recipe on the corn meal bag for some Onion Topped Corn Pudding. To me, it sounded good at the time. So I go rush out and buy all the other ingredients so I could make this yummy sounding side dish ;-)
I mixed it all up thinking how delicious it would be. Well to our disappointment, it was awful!!! I mean really bad. What I want to know is ... #1) Who actually tested this? #2) Who thought it tasted good? I know y'all are probably laughing right now but when I tell you it was bad, it was terri-BULL!!
Do you ever have a taste for something, and you get your mouth all turned up to taste it ... and when you finally get it, it wasn't anything like you expected? Maybe we shouldn't have such high expectations. Sometimes when I was a child I would get my hopes up about something and most always get disappointed because things didn't happen the way I wanted them to. Enjoy your weekend!

Later taters!
