Baldo by Hector D. Cantú and Carlos Castellanos for June 28, 2020

¿Cuántos sartenes esa mujer necesita?

??? Doesn’t look like a pizza box. All the other boxes stacked up outside are all different shapes. Are they all from Amazon? It’s difficult to read the labels.

I bring my trash to the local collection site. They have big containers for plastics, wood, metals, and cardboard. Amazon boxes sure do pile up, but it helps to knock them flat and stack them.

It has been like that around here since the Coronavirus upset started. I’ve got to take boxes for recycling today.

That was me last year. I burn the boxes in my fire pit.

It pans out for Carmen again.

Cardboard can be used a weed barriers. Cut so flat, place around plants you want and put down mulch. If plants are new transplants wet down cardboard with plants. Then add mulch. We had all the boxes that are banged up, to flat or way to big to use again. We recycle but since we can’t be sure any of it really gets recycled we try to reuse ourselves as much as possible.

C’mon, Baldo, flatten those boxes and you’ll get most of them in the recycle bin.

Yup, our Amazon/on-line shopping has increased dramatically. But I live in a small town with very little retail before the plague so we’ve shopped on-line a lot for years.

Eficiente

I’ll say one thing; Tia Carmen is good with the scissors!

I thought it was funny.

My Beloved and Darling Wife doesn’t get it.

Oh Well.

Since when do delivery people bother to ring the doorbell? None do in my area.

OK

Which one of you two have been camping outside our house??

An assembly line?

This is my house, for the last three months.

Where is the Bubble Wrap?

Never ever sass a woman who has been cooking on cast iron for 20 years. That hangy down stuff on her arms is NOT fat. She will slap you upside the head with that skillet and you will wake up in the next zip code.

If one were to collapse those boxes, they would take up much less room…

Just say no to Amazon.

Just thought of this when I came back to read the posts since last week when I posted -

Don’t they remove their name and address before getting rid of the boxes? I always cut the label info area off the boxes and shred it. No one needs to be able to see our personal info when the box is sitting waiting to be picked up on recycle day or after that at the recycling facility.
