My family has no idea of the depth of my sacrifices for them...

[LaraMN]

I'm making bbq pulled pork in the crockpot for them, for dinner. I cannot stand the smell of the cooking of pork. It makes me want to gag. I tried to cover the smell with a candle, and now my house smells like gaggy pork and cherries.

:puke:

They so. owe. me.

[matcom]

1. fart

it really is the only thing at this point to do

[LaraMN]

2. I can't just do that on command.

Pesky X- chromosomes, and all.

[matcom]

3. GAWD I don't know how you women SURVIVE!

:rofl:

[LaraMN]

6. We all have our God- given talents. Mine is fervent contemplation.

Today, while traipsing the pasture of my mental acreage, I determined that the undersides of my butt cheeks look like smiles. This observation should serve me well on my media literacy midterm exam, in a few hours.

[ceile]

4. But is it the pork you're smelling

or spices? If it's just pork with nothing else, yes, that would make me gag too.

[LaraMN]

7. It's the pork.

The "pulling" part really grosses me out.

[swimboy]

5. They just don't know--but we do.

:loveya:

[LaraMN]

8. Which is why I keep a log.

They currently me about $300,000 and a boob job.

[NewWaveChick1981]

9. OMG...

:yoiks: They owe you BIG. I'm not a huge pork fan, but the thought of it cooking just makes we wanna retch... :puke:

So what are you getting out of this? You need a present or something... :bounce:

[LaraMN]

11. I get to go to class and take a test.

Actually, I DO look forward to going to class- particularly this one. At the very least, the pork-stench should have dissipated some, by the time I get home.

[NewWaveChick1981]

13. Well, that's something, at least...

:hug: Enjoy your class and the time away from the smell! :hi:

[XNASA]

10. Hey Butthead.

She said, "Pulled Pork".

[LaraMN]

12. Uggghhhh!

In fact, it's more torn, or ripped.

:scared:

[atomic-fly]

14. the little puking avatar makes me want some

[LaraMN]

16. Some puke?

:P

[atomic-fly]

19. you know what I mean...

I just prefer to not see cartoon things puking when I'm reading
about food.Gross!
By the way, cherry pulled pork sounds delicious.

[ScreamingMeemie]

15. You and me both!!!

I made fish the other night...and had to open the windows. And then that stench seems to last for weeks. :hi:

[LaraMN]

17. That's part of the reason that I rarely make bacon.

Particularly in the winter!
I like my house to smell fresh and clean- I figure it offsets the actual deficiency in cleanliness.

[ScreamingMeemie]

18. I only like the smell of bacon cooking at a campsite.

I am a huge over user of candles and Febreeze... with a sloppy looking kitchen floor at present time. :D

[Midlodemocrat]

23. Me, too!!! That's why I spray lemon pledge at the front door

when company comes. They have no idea that the place is actually a flaming pig sty, because it smells so good.

[Dukkha]

20. listen to Rush Limbaug

it will be surreal like he's actually in the room with you with the stench of burning pork

[Midlodemocrat]

21. Pine scented Yankee Candles are strong enough to cover

that smell. Hell, if they can cover the smell of fish :puke:, pork is a no-brainer.

:hi:

[Arugula Latte]

22. Ew. I agree -- pork is gross.

x(

I haven't eaten it or red meat in about, oh, two-and-a-half decades.

[wildhorses]

24. put some tomato juice in it --say about a cup or so--

should kill the smell -- or part of a can of tomato soup whatever is available:hi:

[YankeyMCC]

25. I love the smell of cooking pig meat

But I can sympathize with you because whenever my wife and son bring home fish for supper or even just make tuna fish I walk around feeling like I'm going to gag from the smell.

But I don't say anything and try to think of the smell of cooking pork :)
