SPEAKER_02 0:23

You were afraid of grummy deals.

SPEAKER_05 0:28

So did the post office really lose like 10 of Eleanor's postcards?

SPEAKER_04 0:33

Well, uh, we sent three three or four postcards in an envelope and they never got it.

SPEAKER_05 0:40

Did we ever uh tell them about Paul failing to add postage?

SPEAKER_02 0:46

No, we never circled back to that. He added postage, he just put one stamp on a big old envelope.

SPEAKER_03 0:54

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_02 0:55

Like a pat what are those padded manila envelopes? And like the only thing he sent was the one card. And he sent the other card in the same envelope, also with one stamp. So like he double fucked up. Oh, grummy got one.

SPEAKER_01 1:20

Oh, grummy, I think he said I mean.

SPEAKER_03 1:25

I most certainly did not.

SPEAKER_04 1:31

I got one, and actually, I found it very interesting. I have the um Brightwheel or whatever app on the on my phone, and I get I got to see the whole daycare Easter egg hunt thing. That looked pretty cool. Yeah, they had fun, huh?

SPEAKER_01 1:53

She's having a pause.

SPEAKER_05 1:56

Oh, she already answered. Oh, and the there was like a bag of jelly beans behind the clock. And Eleanor insisted that she had looked there. And I was like, no, you didn't. I found these behind the clock.

SPEAKER_03 2:13

And Eleanor was like, My look there! You're cheating!

SPEAKER_05 2:17

And I said, No, the bag of jelly beans was behind the clock. I just found them. Like, you're cheating! And I was like, fuck you, man. And she was like, fuck you, man. And then somebody threw the clock, and then no more Easter egg hunting.

SPEAKER_01 2:31

Who threw it? I feel like Dad threw it. It's probably Dad.

SPEAKER_05 2:39

I kind of imagine it was me. I don't remember throwing it, but I do have a bit of a tendency.

SPEAKER_03 2:48

They liked all the pecans when you threw the pecans all over the place.

SPEAKER_01 2:56

You didn't throw the pecans, he threw the pecans. And again, that was about dad.

SPEAKER_05 3:01

I kicked the pecans.

SPEAKER_03 3:02

Oh, okay. Kicked pecans. Same result. They were all over the place.

SPEAKER_05 3:06

I threw them into the air and then I kicked them.

SPEAKER_01 3:09

Yeah, dad was being a good one.

SPEAKER_02 3:12

What'd you do with the cheese that one time?

SPEAKER_01 3:14

He just stacked it up.

SPEAKER_05 3:16

I just stacked it up.

SPEAKER_02 3:17

Wasn't there like a cracker fort?

SPEAKER_01 3:19

No, it was nuts.

SPEAKER_05 3:21

It was nuts. It was there were so many products in the house that were nuts.

SPEAKER_02 3:25

No, I think there was a separate, because she had a bunch of look, well, maybe they There was a cheese one and a nut one. I didn't know. You were grabbing the crackers that were made from nuts.

SPEAKER_01 3:36

Yeah, it was nut things.

SPEAKER_02 3:39

You were like, there's so many fucking nuts in this house.

SPEAKER_05 3:44

It was a crazy amount. I I mean I made like a seven-story like pyramid out of nut products.

SPEAKER_01 3:52

I think I have that picture somewhere.

SPEAKER_05 3:55

I have it somewhere. It's probably on Facebook, I think.

SPEAKER_01 3:58

I saw it.

SPEAKER_04 4:01

There's those boxes of nutcrackers. They only have like four ounces of nuts in it. Nutcrackers.

SPEAKER_05 4:08

Well, it wasn't just crackers though. It was like there was the planner's peanuts and pecans and dad's old fucking nut mix thing and this and that and the other.

SPEAKER_01 4:22

I used to eat when my last year of school when I was living at home, I would like pack my lunch to before leaving, but all I would do is fill a Ziploc bag full of those nuts. I just like sit in the library and eat the nuts all day. Probably gained like a thousand pounds that year because I quit swimming and only ate nuts.

SPEAKER_04 4:48

Is this your washing machine, puddle?

SPEAKER_05 4:51

Yeah. I mean, it was for her because she had to deal with it, but Okay.

SPEAKER_01 5:02

I I'll turn this off.

SPEAKER_03 5:04

Is that DNA for her in your basement?

SPEAKER_00 5:06

Wait, tell them about she just tell them your take on cheese rice cake.

SPEAKER_01 5:11

Sheldon wants me to tell they want us to talk, he wants us to talk about cheese rice cake on the podcast.

SPEAKER_00 5:16

What's up, fellas? It's your boy, Shell Dog, Woof Woof, coming in hot. I messed up my knee at jujitsu. I'm laid up. I can't walk. My knee looks like a freaking beach ball. And we're here today to talk to you about a little treat called cheese rice cake. Now, let me tell you, my relationship with Emmy has had its ups and downs. But the biggest down was one day I walk in, and this lady, I kid you not, is just fucking slapping craft singles onto rice cakes, the Quaker brand, and just popping them in the microwave for like.

SPEAKER_01 5:47

You don't microwave the the craft single ones.

SPEAKER_00 5:51

Which ones do you microwave?

SPEAKER_01 5:52

The real cheese ones. You eat the craft single ones cold.

SPEAKER_00 5:58

This is so much worse. She's putting cold craft singles onto rice cakes and eating them. Or she'll sprinkle shredded cheese onto a rice cake and microwave it and then eat it. And I was really taken aback by that. And it really put a strain on our relationship, but we're still here today, despite that. But then today she told us about another tasty treat called pizza rice cake, which feels like slapping God in the face. Which is where you take pizza sauce and shredded mozzarella and you put it on a rice cake. But you don't heat it up. You eat it cold, is a requirement of pizza rice cake.

SPEAKER_04 6:41

And this is not a long-standing family recipe.

SPEAKER_01 6:45

Oh, wait. Grammy has a good point.

SPEAKER_00 6:47

Grammy wants to tell you that she's not responsible.

SPEAKER_01 6:50

But cheese rice cake is a family recipe.

SPEAKER_00 6:52

Yeah, cheese rice cheese. Cheese rice cake. Which one? American cheese one or a shredded microwave cheese one? Or both.

SPEAKER_05 7:01

I usually have microwave.

SPEAKER_02 7:03

The craft single in the microwave, 15 seconds.

SPEAKER_00 7:08

You microwave your craft single, Eleanor.

SPEAKER_02 7:12

Yeah. Like you you have to. It's just got like a me doesn't.

SPEAKER_01 7:19

No, it's so gross. It's so good, though. I made real deviled eggs today, too. I'm a chef.

SPEAKER_00 7:24

Grammy, do you eat cheese rice cake?

SPEAKER_04 7:27

Occasionally.

SPEAKER_00 7:29

How do you prepare it? So do you heat it up or not? She microwave it. Anyways, what are your thoughts on cheese rice cake? And what's a real yucky snack that you like to make when you're hungry?

SPEAKER_01 7:48

Okay, that's good.

SPEAKER_00 7:49

Oh wait, mine? Okay, here's mine. I like to I like to just take two corn tortillas, slap some cheese and some hot sauce in between them, throw that in the microwave for 30 seconds.

SPEAKER_01 8:03

That's spiritually the same as the cheese rice cake.

SPEAKER_00 8:06

That's what I like to do. Anyways, we look forward to hearing back from you, and happy Easter. We're recording this on Easter, so may the Lord be with you.

SPEAKER_01 8:21

He has risen.

SPEAKER_00 8:23

Okay, bye.
