I think they discovered many years ago that the ink was how they would really make their money.<br />Doorway effect, eh? Now I know. LOL!

It is perfect if I remember to stir it first. Sometimes I boost it 10 second more if it sits too long before it is served. Diabetics can't eat oatmeal, that would be me. L.

However, the doorway effect is true. I've read about it before. A trick I learnt from an article I heard on radio is to say out loud what you need to remember.e.g. When I drive out of the garage and as I am closing the door, I always say, "I have closed the door" So that I don't get around the block and think did I close the garage door?diane bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002292118984909883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-3520286741885927112022-01-27T21:05:50.007-05:002022-01-27T21:05:50.007-05:00To know that there is a legitimate doorway effect ...To know that there is a legitimate doorway effect gives me some comfort.<br /><br />As far as ink usage, I don't worry about font coverage when a page is still more white than black.

That explains why when I walk through a door and forget why I went in there to start with, that I remember when I step back out. Hope you've been staying warm and don't get too much snow Saturday.

What made it so pressing now, after three quarters of a century, is intriguing. Doesn't the federal government have other trivial issues like armed insurrection against the elected government of the people to deal with? Or maybe that's all fake news!

That means the quality will go right down the toilet - - like so very many other products.<br /><br />The price of ink cartridges is absolutely shocking. My cartridges cost nearly as much as the printer, and don't last long at all. It's a HUGE rip-off. I really miss the good ol' days of the typewriter....<br /><br />I constantly forget things whether I go through a doorway or not. A few hours ago I went to the pantry and had no clue what I was going to get. It's not due to old age. I've done it most of my life.<br /><br />I'm hoping that my comment won't disappear due to another Blogger glitch!Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619128793632680659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-64305947953942456772022-01-27T15:14:31.246-05:002022-01-27T15:14:31.246-05:00Marvelous post.

When I edited a newsletter at our former residence in Maryland I used Garamond all the time.

I guess I don’t look for it because when I had ‘morning’ sickness with my oldest, I got really sick after eating a salad with French dressing. Haven’t touched it in 31 years! I recently looked into buying a printer where you fill the ink yourself. Holy cow on the prices! And the Amazon reviews were terrible. Looks like I’ll keep polluting the planet with cartridges.Bijouxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05788630004051883635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-13446656927248002562022-01-27T12:16:27.666-05:002022-01-27T12:16:27.666-05:00So we can be all willy-nilly with our French dress...So we can be all willy-nilly with our French dressing now?

I read only kindle because i can make the fonts big and bold. this is all really interesting.<br />the doorway thing happens to me from one side of the kitchen to the other, step from sink to fridge, or fridge to stove and forget what I was doing or saying. so not doorway.

But I was especially fascinated by the fonts (I tend to use Calibri, so yay!) and it does make a lot of sense but I'd never thought about it. And, also, the doorway syndrome. I think that's happened to everyone I know.

French dressing is not a favorite so it doesn't have much of a bearing on me, but if they made up a bunch of silly rules for Ranch dressing, I'd be wondering what the problem could be. Are you folks expecting the big storm? Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.com
