Quirky and OCD tendencies..... Anyone else have them?

My wife works differently. When she asked for help looking for something in the house I tend start picking up, sorting out and putting away stuff. I get grief for this, but tend to find stuff.

I learned to put stuff away because if I did not, my wife would put it away. And the thought of putting like things in the same drawer as like things has never crossed her mind. A roll of tape would be in a kitchen drawer and I would look everywhere before accidently finding the roll of tape. I kid you not. Her mother was the same way.

We have taken to roasting cauliflower 'til it is dark crispy.
First time was not intentional but now that is the only way we like it, like dark and crunchy.

That sounds like something tasty! Just separate it out on a pan and roast it in the oven? Temperature? Any spices?

:laughing: That's funny. Reminds me of my brother. We were visiting him and his family, and during breakfast that morning, he said that he couldn't find anyone to make pancakes like our mother used to make. I asked him, "How's that?"
And he said "You know, burned on the outside and runny in the middle."

I'm curious too. I like to halve brussels sprouts and saute them in butter until crisp. Vegetables I usually steam and then toss in sesame oil and salt.

Talk about OCB, believe it or not I have a friend who has walked 5 miles every day for over 8,000 days. They even did an article in our local newspaper several years ago comparing his streak to Cal Ripken's. Needless to say he now needs both knees replaced but has not yet determined when he was getting it done. He is still walking the 5 miles.

Yep, made on wood stove that's on the hot side (cold morning in the cabin), and drowned in maple syrup and butter!
LOL, I know what I'll make for lunch!
