Occasionally I work at home usually I have the radio on for background noise (reduces the amount I talk to myself or the dog).
But today I had the TV on and imagine my surprise when a talk show started chatting about "My Husband's Nuts".
Margeret Jo McCullen: Well, Pete, Teri and I have been looking forward to having you on the show, 'cause we know you're the master of all kinds of Christmas goodies. Tell us about them.
Pete Schweddy: Well, there are lots of great treats this time of year - Zucchini , Fruitcake.. but the thing that I most like to bring out this time of year are my Balls.
Teri Rialto: Mmm.. Balls.. Tell us about your Balls, Pete.
Pete Schweddy: Well, over at Season's Eatings, we have Balls for every taste. Popcorn Balls, Cheese Balls, Rum Balls.. you name it.
Margeret Jo McCullen: Wow! My mouth's watering just thinking about those Balls!
Teri Rialto: It's been years since I've seen any Balls.
Pete Schweddy: Would you like to see my Balls now?
Margeret Jo McCullen: Yeah. Whip them out.
[ Pete places a tray of Balls on the control board ]
Teri Rialto: Mmm.. wow.. you have some beautiful Balls..
Margeret Jo McCullen: They're bigger than I expected.
Lynn Vershad: Now, Pete, you've gained quite a reputation as the king of stadium-cooked cuisine.
Pete Schweddy: That's right. I'm proud to say I've won great acclaim for my takes on popcorn, crackerjacks, and pretzel bread. But I think what I am most known for is my weiner.
Margaret Jo McCullen: your weiner. Wow. You don't say.
Pete Schweddy: I sure do. Would you like to see it?
Margaret Jo McCullen: Please. Please. [ Pete pulls out a tray of weiners ] Wow..
Tyler: Oh, this is a caulking gun. It is the most essential tool in keeping the cold out of your home.
Mitch: I think we're about to have some fun.
Gail: [ chuckles ] Well, Tyler, walk us through this.
Tyler: Sure thing. Winter air gets into your home through all sorts of little openings and cracks in your windows and door frames.
Gail: Hmm.
Tyler: So what you need to do is take your caulking gun and place a thin bead all along the crack. Like this. [ demonstrates ]
Gail: Okay. So Tyler, what you're doing - and this is for the audience at home - you're filling that crack up with caulk?
Tyler: That's right.
Mitch: Okay. So I put my caulk in the crack, I'm standing there - now what do I do?
Tyler: Well, that's a common question. Watch. I'm going to use a little bit of pressure and work the caulk into the crack with my index finger. [ demonstrates ]
Gail: Oh, You make it seem so easy. Wow, any time I'm around caulk it's a recipe for disaster.
Mitch: It's true. I've known Gail for a long time and she cannot handle caulk. But, me, I love caulk. Always have. It's amazing.
