Good afternoon, Ladybugs.  How's everyone today?


First of all, I do not like mustard.  I will tolerate a little grey poupon, but that's about it.  DH on the other hand, loves it.  In fact, he likes it so much that he found some mustard that he wanted to try, in a catalog, from the Mustard Museum. Yes, there really is such a place!  He thought he'd like to try  the collection of mustards called American classics, so I ordered it for him(of about 6 different kinds) to go with a new BBQ set that I'm giving him for his birthday in June.  It arrived yesterday, but I just got around to opening the box today.  I'm so glad I checked because they had sent me the wrong collection!!  They sent me the International Collection instead!  It was interesting looking, but just not the right one.  The invoice even said, American Collection, so I know it was their mistake.  So I called and the gentleman at the other end was so nice.  He apologized and said that he'd have the American collection put in the mail to me right away and not to bother sending back the other one.! I think we've talked about this before. Some people ARE nice enough to do that, not everybody, right?   Sooo, now I have 12 jars of mustard!! yikes!! 


It's a great day here...sunny, even though a little cool


I have my camera ready ....DS and GF are going to a Gala event tonight and they'll be dressed to the 9s...I want to get some pictures...if they let me!!!


I hope you are enjoying your day!

Shari how nice of that man to do that. But yikes! 12 jars! Are they big jars? Surely there is another mustard fan you can regift them to.

I have a friend that does not like mayo (I mean come on...lol) and mustard.


So some time ago I made some rollups that used mayo with some sweet and sour mustard

The "Mustard Party" is at your house!
I like mustard on a hot dog or sometimes on a ham sandwich,
but mostly I use it when I'm making potato salad.


Beautiful, sunny, 80 degree day here.
Mustard has not been a part of my day.

We nicknamed our youngest DS "Leonardo Mustardo" when he was a kid - put it on everything. I must admit I like all kinds, so gifts of it are always welcome. But - not 12 jars! DH doesn't use it much, but insists it be in deviled eggs & egg salad. Go figure. He's a Miracle Whip man. I make a creamy Chicken Florentine soup, but substitute Dijon mustard for the white wine (never have any in the house).

I sure wish we lived closer because I love mustard and would love to take some of it off your hands. My Dad and I loved it and my Mom just hated it. Just the word mustard made her cringe and turn up her nose! LOL She said she never knew why she hated it so much but she sure did.

Good for that company!! I love mustard especially the spicey kinds. Has your DH ever tried it with pretzel? It makes a good snack. Sounds like you won't be running out for a loooong time. LOL--Pat
