Re: To Do or Not To Do
Do not, or not any more. All too often the "snack" is lunch anyway.

Re: To Do or Not To Do
Do not, since I usually just end up wishing it was Friday evening so I'd be off work already.

Yes, if making impossibly long to do lists counts.

Re: To Do or Not To Do
Do. Mainly because we don't get much imported cheese from America to use on grilled cheese on toast. We use a variety of cheese called cheddar as a rule, but Cheddar is in England so the EU might require us to use a different name for locally made cheese.

Do not drink it at all--I've never developed a taste for coffee (My grandfather told me I wasn't grown up because I wouldn't drink coffee. )
