@MommyOfEli2013 Cash option is around $516. After taxes you probably would get around $300 million???

@LindaOHio I probably would be too. Wow, $1 billion? I know that taxes on that would be a lot but you'd still end up with a lot of money... wouldn't it be nice.

Given all I can eat today is broth and popsicles, it wouldn’t do me any good to know how to eat with chopsticks. Anyway, no, I don’t. Yesterday was chicken taco salad for lunch and chicken and potatoes from the electric skillet for dinner. Today is NOTHING.

I heard no one won the power ball. Pizza Hut has good pizza. Yesterday was a day for overindulgence. Someone gave me some birthday cake she had left over. How can I say no to birthday cake? Especially when my birthday is right around the corner. Food: Breakfast - Eggs, Potato, Banana. Snack - Blackberries. Lunch - Veggie Pasta with tuna, onion, celery, shredded cheese, and Alfredo sauce. Dessert - Cake. Supper - Cheese sandwich on Ezekiel Low Sodium bread. Calories - Too many. Scale this morning - up five ounces.

I can eat with them but sometimes have issues where the food slides off. Also can't seem to hold them properly for some reason. They are not supposed to cross each other on the top but when I hold them they do.

Yes, I learned how to eat with chopsticks when I was a university student. I don't know why I learned it but I just did. And I enjoy Japanese food. Me and my sister back then would often eat at Japanese restaurants. She would ask for spoon and fork, I would use the chopsticks. I'm the only one in the family who could. When I met some Korean friends and we had dinner, they told me that I could use the chopsticks better than them. They were referring to how I was holding it. They said I was holding the chopsticks the proper way.

@LindaOHio Wielding chopsticks is an important training for the body and the brain.

I have no intent on mastering chopsticks, I am content with using a fork and a knife, and on occasion a spoon.

Nope, I don't know how to eat with chop sticks. I didn't win the lottery either and maybe one of us will on the next drawing? fingers crossed.

That looks quite a good haul of fish. I don't even try to eat with chopsticks. Luckily here you're always given the option of using a fork, spoon or whatever.
