Honestly curious, do yall close the tip? Our boxes and jugs of milk we can close with a screw lid. Do yall fold the tip and clip it or just leave it open? I never leave any product open in the fridge, so it's just a weird thought to me if yall don't close it.
@littletoysforbigkids4293 ай бұрын
@@What_iv_Don3 you nip the corner open with a pair of scissors... The hole can be as big or small as you wanted to be but typically you snip the hole so that it is smaller than the diameter of a pencil. And no, there's no way to close that. I know what you're saying, I have purchased milk in a plastic jug with a screw top lid and in a carton with a fold over cardboard top, and I never leave those open either... But for the bagged milk, yeah you just make a tiny hole and it stays open. In over 40 years, I've never had a problem (in terms of spoilage or picking up other fridge odors). I suppose if you knocked the jug over in the fridge, it definitely would spill... Thanks for your question!.

Oh that's so sweet thank you, I have approximately 20 episodes of today's special... (there are 120 in the entire series). I believe that officially only season 1 and 2 have been released and they can be purchased on dvd, however the ones I have are just mixed and match here and there, whatever was taped off tv. I never ever considered putting them on KZbin cuz... I don't know I thought it was a copyright thing...but then I found that other people had, and the worst thing that can happen is that TVO can just ask you to take it down so that's fine. I don't make any money off of this, and all it's doing is spreading some joy. And I'm happy to do so. It was a really great series, over so long ago, and it's so nice that people can see them again. It takes me about 5 hours to get a 30-minute episode prepared to upload. Yeah I know. Crazy....

Read this remake of the song and tell me what you think of it. The Queen Rosie of France and her Seven Daughters One two three four five six seven! Said the Queen Rosie of France to her seven daughters, "I'm feeling mighty down. Whichever of you can cheer me up will get to wear my crown." The first daughter gave seven scallop shells from the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea. The second gave her seven statues of men With clocks where the stomach should be. The third daughter gave her seven sapphires From the shiekdom of down there beneath. The queen thought the sapphires were blueberries and she broke off seven of her teeth. The fourth daughter came to cheer her up with seven cherry drops. The queen said, "I'm sorry, daughter, but since that sapphire episode I just haven't got the chops." The fifth daughter brought the queen perfume In seven jars of honeydew. The queen took a whiff and she broke out in spots 'Cause it smelled like Pepe Le Pew. The sixth daughter gave her seven diamond rings To wear upon her toes. The queen snagged her foot on the royal red rug And crumpled up her nose. The seventh daughter of the Queen Rosie of France Was a thoughtful little whelp. She said, "Mommy, appears to me that you could use a little help." Said the Queen Rosie of France to her seventh daughter, "My daughter, you win the crown. You didn't give me emeralds or sapphires, but you helped me up when I was down. Take the crown, it's yours my daughter. I hope you don't mind the pranks. I got it on sale at a discount store- Cost me all of seven francs!" SEVEN!
