You were quit the morbid little preschooler weren't you? Lol.

Well yeah, that's why the little brother was the sacrifice. ;) That was the fear with the open risers! Hey it kept us alive, right? LOL. Remember turning off the bedroom light then leaping into bed in the dark from the door? Talk about a long jump!

How about going down the basement stairs, alone, when they only had treads and no risers? Even if you turned on the light, it never illuminated under there. 8O Actually that really wasn't much of a problem. I'd just send my brother down first. :D

For me it was the closet. Still can't sleep with the door open, lol.

Are you crazy?8O Don't you know if you don't see it, it ain't there??? Lol. Did you ever find anything?

You can freeze butter if you're that concerned and really don't use it that often. My mom used to do it all the time.

I don't really use it that much, not for toast or sandwiches or anything. I use it mostly in cooking. I find it subs for butter just fine for the most part.

Me too. I tend to buy butter around the holidays though, some baking is just better with butter.
