I do not mean china. I'll eat toast and June made that.

She seemed to put a nice roast in the oven--I'll take a few hunks of that, please. Medium to medium well.

I'd like to try her chicken salad. It's hard to find good chicken salad.

Would June have made chopped chicken liver? I know that is a stereotypical dish credited to older Jewish women, but I'll bet June could make that almost as well. It's been years since I've had a good pastrami and chicken liver sandwich. On toast of course.

I think I have posted this before regarding June's and Margarett's(FKB) degrees. I am assuming this is what they went to college for. It's nothing to sneeze at and it what helps them make such a lovely home.

That's pretty freakish the way she serves coffee at about 14:46 in the video.
The way she pours the unneeded serving back into the pot...and nobody even lifts an eyebrow.

I only saw a person pour an extra coffee into their own cup.

The girl in the blue jacket, has what appears to be coffee in a metal pan in front of her. She takes another coffee cup which she uses as a ladle to scoop out of the pan, pour into a seperate cup which she then gives to the girl in black. And then dumps the unused portion back into the pan in front of her.

Yum Yum, who wants the next cup?

The most amazing thing about it is, that no one else in the group even bats an eyelash. If I were among them, I think I would be sitting my coffee cup down in some out of the way location, just to assure myself that I would be drinking no more.

Perhaps I'm a little over sensitive, but whenever I see people take food cleanliness lightly, it always makes me wonder what else they might have done that I didn't get a chance to witness.

15 years ago a couple that I know invited me over for dinner one evening. we had a great dinner, and when the meal was over, they took all the dishes and sat them on the floor for their Rottweiler to lick clean, before putting them in the sink.

I'm sure they washed them,.....but "how well?".
I was never able to get over that....

I'm not OCD on cleanliness but I'd never return to that dog licking plate place again. I'd never be anyplace where a Rottweiler lived anyway, but that's just me.

GentlemanJim

He was a great dog, this is no knock against the dog. He and I had a wonderful relationship. But the plate licking was just a step too far.

Many people may see their pets as "members of the family", and make more allowances than an outsider might do. But I was not THAT close. And I never again ate in that house.

How do you feel about other people standing over your food and carrying on a conversation?

For instance I had the deli at my local grocery slice me up a couple pounds of roast turkey, and after the slicing was complete the gal made some comment to a co-worker, and the co-worker walked over to pursue a conversation, and there my exposed turkey sat on the table between these two unmasked blabbermouths.
This was probably in July after the first wave of corona virus had passed, but before the second gained momentum. But I was seriously ticked off.

I saw it.
What would it matter? Why not put it back in the pan if the whole thing was going to be tossed out. It might make it easier to carry and be sure it did not spill.

One thing I've seen that grosses me out: People who sit a baby on a restaurant table (yes, this happens!)

Well, considering that the gal in the black outfit was served from the pan, it would be my guess that all the others were as well. So who can say for sure that others won't be next in line? What happens to the cup being used as a ladle between servings?

Seems like an opportunity ripe for the exchange of bodily fluids?

One would think that a home economics instructional video would aspire to set higher standards.

Am I being too picky here?

I think it was much more important to know what to do with the Tomato soup. Soup into milk or milk into soup. Chemistry and all...

I guess it's partly due to my convictions that whatever behavior a person is caught doing (provable, in other words) is seldom their worst behavior. The prospect that the one time I managed to catch her red handed, being the single worst instance of her misbehavior being, imho, rather slim.

This strikes me as a gal who would pick cheese slices up off the floor and covertly place them back on the buffet table. Provided no one was watching, of course.

Back to Beaver, but still slightly off topic, remember when Wally watched Beaver when he overflowed the bathtub? Wally was frying hamburgers, and he dropped one on the floor. "That one is Beaver's." What a great brother!

In an unaired episode Beaver got sick LOL!

I won't drink coffee out of other people's Keurigs, either. Go over to youtube and run a search for " Moldy Keurig", and you'll see why.

That reservoir left partly full, over the long term brews uninvited critters.

On Reddit there is a section called "Just rolled into the shop" (auto shop) and there are many posts of people's car interiors the are SO GROSS -ugh !

When the coffee starts tasting like a little ranch dressing might be just what it needs, then it's past due for cleaning.

I had a friend who I grew up with, when he got divorced he could just NEVER bring himself to wash dishes.
Kitchen sink overflowing with dirty dishes. Bathtub full of dirty dishes too, just two little "clearings" for him to place his feet in while showering. And I mean a PILE of dirty dishes and cookware. Every once in a while he would cut his foot on broken glass from a drinking glass breaking under the weight of all the dishes piled on top.

All I could ever think about when I'd go over to visit and see that mess was a vision of him standing over the pile and soaping up while he showered.
He was one of those people who would accumulate dirty clothes for 60+ days before he'd drag them all out to a coin op and wash them in a single day.

Was it ever mentioned in the show whether June made goulash?

There is a name I don't think I have regularly heard since the 1960s, but at one time was a popular spanner menu allowing mom to reuse a previous days left overs for a new main course......usually the day before payday.

Seems like it would make an interesting plot device for June to have a relic recipe from Aunt Martha, that nobody really liked, but everyone choked down with a smile, due to Ward's insistence that doing so was a way for the boys to demonstrate how much they appreciate their mother. :X)

I don't think goulash was ever mentioned.

Maybe that would have been written in if Zsa Zsa had been a guest star!

Probably Wally and Beaver would have given thumbs down. When Ward brought home some frozen Chinese dinners, those were a loser.
