I very seldomly throw things away, I determine by smell/color if something
is past it's use by date and I'm going to eat it. I hate crows and wouldn't
want them around. The neighbor used to have two huge pine trees where they
would roost but he cut them down to the ground a couple of years ago, now
they're gone. Good.

I make an effort to use it up before it goes bad. I've had a few screw ups
recently with packaged meat that I thought I had a much longer shelf life
than it did. And the small hunk of cheese that I bailed into the fridge,
thinking I'd eat it later. I forgot about it and didn't wrap it well so it
got hard. Once in a while I'll find something in the produce drawer that is
to bad to trim up.

Julie, if you were a person to make yur own bread, that's when the
dried out cheese works. Grate it and add it.

I agree, seldom ditch anything however, I love crows. They are
exceptionally intelligent birds, they learn to talk more easily than
parrots and budgies and are known to use 'tools'.

They grew to trust me at my last house and would come to feed on the
deck whilst I was sitting there. I used to say Hello Mr Crow to them
hoping they would learn and perhaps say it elsewhere on another deck
and scare the shit out of someone

Comical, can you imagine?

We were in a pet store once, looking at cat or dog supplies. The
woman at the desk said Hello. Hello! Couple of minutes later,
Hello. Uh, Hi. Then, Hello. Lady, it's still us. Then I see the
bird sitting in a cage, trying to say Hello.

Funny you mention crows. I was going to mention this anyway.
Turned on TV at 6:30pm to watch ABC World News Tonight.
I most always watch that 30 minute summary.

Once that was almost over, I checked what other channels offered
that evening. Until 8pm, I ended up watching and old classic
movie. "The Birds" 1963 directed by Alfred Hitchcock. What a nice
surprise. I always thought that was a good one and haven't seen
it in 100 years or so.

Only thing I noticed this time is that it seemed a bit dumb now
and not scary like the first time I watched it.

Anyway, that movie features crows and seagulls terrorizing a town
by the sea.

If you look closely at those film shots of the birds, many of them
swarming inside the house are parakeets. And it was film laid over
other images.

And yoose place smells just like the local landfill (on the day before
they doze it to cover up the rotting refuse).

Jeazus Popeye, yoose are disgusting.

I usually throw scraps out back to the critters too, but had to stop recently since hubby came face to face with a rather large bear in the back yard, in the pitch black of 4 AM. He heard a noise and turned his flashlight toward the sound only to see this guy staring right at him from about 6' away.. Hubs was able to slowly get back into the porch. The next morning we found that Yogi had decapitated our deer archery target, chewed the legs off of another target, and bit the butt of a third.

Although we have three acres of wooded land, we are in a fairly suburban area. Lots of new developments going on around town and the Bears are looking to relocate, as are the Bobcats.

I don't trust any chart...I keep cooked eggs and dishes with cooked eggs in them like
potato salad only three days; cooked meat only three days; and always follow the "best
by" dates to use something or freeze it. Yes, it costs me money sometimes if I get over-
ambitious with preparation plans, but I have learned what my tummy is super-sensitive to,
and treat it accordingly. I am particularly careful with eggs and meat. But raw eggs, I
tend to keep for a month or more, refrigerated, without problems. Here in egg production
country, the eggs in the stores are pretty fresh.
