I also love a grilled cheese with tomato soup. I do not know how you eat those mini wheats dry, however! Test tube washer? That's unusual......
I'm now wondering if I know all the words to any song??
Mini wheats dry are fabulous! Well, I will admit I generally have a cup of coffee at hand so after popping a couple mini wheats in my mouth I'll sip the coffee and let it help dissolve the cereal. I'm an oddball though, just never liked milk on cereal.
Test tube washer was my first paid job other than babysitting. I don't know what the test tubes were used for, but they looked clean by the time they got to me and I got to hand dunk them in a bleach and water bath and then two rinses before laying them out neatly on a towel for drying. The things college students will do for a buck, eh?
