Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
They sell the sauce in the store does that count? ;)
It's good but not the same! We have a tradition that we always stop at a chic fil a on the way to Georgia for opening weekend of deer hunting season.
 
Hi y'all! I have a friend in from Rhode Island. We spent the day thrift store shopping. It's what we did when we were young. Lol. Apparently I can still buy an outfit for 11.00 including shoes. New with tags. All Chico's and Anne Klein shoes.

Sounds much better than my day by far!
You didn't happen to grab some tacos while out???
 
We had Tommy's BBQ catered for our spring picnic today. I had tacos!

Does that count?:thinking-face:
 
Not mine. They love me
I threw my female on the ground once when she was younger. Not sure if she's scared of me now or what, but she hasn't bit me since!
 
I just get the plain fried chicken on a bun with fries and a lemonade. Ever had Cane's Chicken?
Canes’ my son made me try it - meh. I make killer fried chicken.

You're not missing much with In and Out. Decent but nothing I have to have. Sorry @ESABOE . I feel the same about White Castle.

In and Out has good fries but you have to eat them really fresh or they're gross.
No need to apologize - I hate their fries. Only in desperation do I even go to cause in and out cause it’s literally 3 feet from my freeway exit, I will get an animal Style burger. Just super grilled onion in lots of mustard, cheeseburger, bun; that’s it. Chocolate shake. Go directly across the street drive thru McDonald’s and get their fries. But again, rare occasion.

Never been back East to have a White Castle.

Fun fun fun! Need pics on those shoes mam!
