Help Please, with a Card caption!

15 years ago

OK, it's food related as it pertains to my MIL's Christmas gift. Since she'll be here next week, I need to think how I'm going to present her ''little freezer'' of food to her. I found a picture of a 1950's woman bent over a very deep, vintage chest freezer, hind-end sticking up in the air.

Does anyone have a good idea for a caption? She has a good sense of humor, so even better if it's funny!

Inside the card I thought I'd list the plan for what's on each shelf...you know, a diagram. (Beef/Potatoes/Chicken/Soup/Bread/Dessert, etc.) Tomorrow I'm grilling and roasting chicken, so the next day I can make stock from the bones and skin, and some soup. The rest of the week I'm making desserts, and this weekend are waffles and pancakes. Is it okay to mention I'm looking forward to being done with this?

I guess it's good to have a goal. The best part will be I'll be done with Christmas by Thanksgiving!

What a sweetie.

I don't think this one would work, but first thing I thought of was 'Anne Taintor'

And the winner is Jenny with: "Will someone please tell me whether I am coming or going? " I LOVE this picture. My friend has some Labradoodle pups and just happen to have her camera in her hand when two of them got in that tight spot together.

Need help putting caption on TV, we have no remote. Is there a menu button on the TV? Are you sure the TV has CC? Is this TV so old that it is not remote controlled? If so, per the link below, "For older televisions, a set-top box or other decoder is usually required.>" How are the channels changed, or are they? Via a remote for Cable or Satellite? The serial # means nothing. Do you have the model #? Sue Here is a link that might be useful: Closed captioning

While I believe your heart is in the right place, it would NEVER be prudent to post your address in a public forum. And PLEASE DO NOT POST ANYONE ELSES ADDRESS with out their permission! There are way too many weirdos out there.

Oh! TOO FUNNY!!! You all are just great...THANK YOU !

Jessy, I may just have to add a freezer magnet. Rachelellen and Soonergrandmom, Love It. Teresa, I don't know that she's ever had Cherry Garcia, but I could certainly leave one for her to try.

I just love knowing where to ask for help.
