What Holiday is Next?

Saturday, July 30th, 2011

Welcome back!

That is a good question. We have already celebrated the New Year. We have celebrated Valentine’s day.

The Happy Easter store already sent out its many varied types of gifts.

It is hot outside, chocolate melts in the heat, eggs could fry on the sidewalk with the right sort of weather. What holiday is next?

I hope that is it something that involves air conditioning.

Oh yeah, it rained today. The sun was shining, it was down pouring, yet it was raining. A man walking by was soaking wet, but he was smiling and cheerful, after all, it was raining. :)

Yummy

Saturday, June 18th, 2011

I saw something on Facebook that had my juice glands watering.

It was an advertisement for cheap cookie gift baskets. I couldn’t believe what I was looking at.

The cookies were designed to look like different types of animals and they also had other designs. Someone must have a great imagination to do something like that. My problem is that I would be tempted to eat what I was decorating instead of making them for sale to others.

Pet peeves

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

Do you have any pet peeves?

Aw come on, every one does. With me one of the peeves that gets to me the most is to be interrupted by someone who wants to comment on what I am saying when I have not even finished talking, yet.

If they have something to say about what I am talking about, they have not even been listening to begin with. Unfortunately for them, I do have a loud voice and will do my best to get them to listen. Does that make me stubborn…. I’d say yes.

I bet that is some else’s pet peeve. :P

Inside-out

Monday, April 4th, 2011

Guess what I did?

I went to church ‘in style’. It was totally by accident that it happened that way. Went to church, had a great time, made it home and discovered that I had been wearing my clothes inside-out.

I WAS IN STYLE. What do you think about that? :D

Dandelion

Monday, March 28th, 2011

Dandelion, dandelion, glowing so bright, with your little heads nodding in the sunlight.
Why it is that you don’t glow when the light is gone, mom did not like you much when you were in her lawn.
Get some running water, pluck those yellow flowers, pat them dry with paper towels, then dredge with seasoned flour.
Fry them in some cooking oil ’til they are golden brown. Eat them up ’til they are gone, your tummy will not frown.

Okay, I know - bad poetry. I am serious about the dandelion flower heads, though. When they are fixed as mentioned in the ‘poem’ they have a great taste. If you like fried mushrooms, you might like some fried sunshine.

My sis and I did that a while ago. It took about 2 years for that neighborhood to get some dandelions back. Talk about weed control. Too bad we did not know how to fix the greens or the root. I’ve heard that they are edible, too.

When I was still in grade school, we were told to talk about what we had done during the summer. Mom and I had spent our time working on her garden and lawn. She did not appreciate the dandelion very much. There were so many of those yellow flowers showing in her lawn that she created a new name for each one she dug up. I had the chance to tell the teacher that we both spent our time digging up ‘damdelions’. The teacher explained that that was not the right name for the flower/weed. I explained that mom called them that as she dug them up.

I understand, now, why she grinned. :)

Spring is on its way

Saturday, February 19th, 2011

Yup, spring is truly on its way. Of course it could be said that spring is always on the way, I just did not specify which year it is coming.

There are people already thinking about summer and the best tanning lotions. There are people thinking about the next up and coming winter and what will be needed. I guess the only difference is that each person will be thinking about their own plans each time. Some think way ahead, others only think about the next day.

I haven’t figured out which one I am yet. After all I am only….. years old.

Nope - ain’t tellin’. :P

EWWW !

Tuesday, February 8th, 2011

Do you have a pet? If you do, then you know that they have opinions and are not afraid to let you know that they have them.

The other day, as I was occupied on the ‘throne’, I was told the opinion of one of our cats. She came in, visited me, sniffed, left, stopped by the litter box, sniffed, shook her tail, looked at me and then left.

The feeling I got is that the litter pan smelled better than me !?! Considering some of the odors that have come from that box, I am surprised that I was being criticized.

Acronyms

Saturday, January 29th, 2011

Do you know what that word means?

When the people of this country talk about the CIA, they are using an acronym. That is something that we see everyday. NSA, FBI, USA, CBS, NBC, ABC, BCBS of NC are all examples of acronyms. We use them every day and don’t seem to think about them.

The last one mentioned is for a health plan company. As for the others, one is a television show, some are for broadcast stations, some are for government agencies.

Of course the one that is easiest for me to remember is USA! I am proud to be an American. Our country ain’t perfect, but I love it anyway.

Chocolate Cupcake

Wednesday, January 19th, 2011

I woke up from a delicious dream.

I dreamed of a business called ‘Chocolate Cupcake’. The business had brown letters that looked as if they had pink icing on top of them. Inside the business there were , of course, chocolate cupcakes, other cupcakes, cookies, candies, and of course coffee.

Of course, I also woke up hungry. Now, I get to figure out what to eat for lunch….

Time to lose weight

Thursday, January 13th, 2011

It is that time again. It is after the holidays. How much did you eat? What about all of the goodies?

It is now time that people start to think about all of the best fat burner reviews. They look up the different types of things available.

Wouldn’t it have been easier in the beginning to use moderation when eating? I DIDN’T. So what am I saying……..

I also need to lose weight. :)
