Another Post about Food

I guess I think about it a lot--just check out my label hits. Oh, well. It's important, you know. Living. And eating. Etc.

Old Friends

Sometimes people talk about their favorite TV shows, and I always come back to these guys. Oh, TGIF. The biggest thing in my life in the seventh grade. My sister used to call "Boy Meets World" our soap opera. We loved it.

And new shows? Well, I don't watch any. Believe it or not (the cable salesmen never do), I don't own a TV, so I don't know any about new shows. But I think fondly of this when people start talking favorites. Who's with me?

I'm So Fine with Culture Holidays

St. Patrick's Day - Ireland
Cinco De Mayo - Mexico
Mardi Gras - France
Kwanzaa - Africa
Fourth of July - America
Chinese New Year - China

But why in the world don't we have an English holiday? I mean, really. I guess you could count Guy Fawkes, huh? Or Boxing Day? But then what about the Scots? Or Spain? Japan? I don't think this is equal national rights.

Baby Einstein

Are they brainwashing my child? And if they are, he's so happy about it that do I care? What's your take?

I Guess I Have Some Useful Skills

So lately I've been volunteering to help out some friends with:
     - sewing
     - resume writing
     - family history
     - garden planning
Apparently I know some things. How can I help you?

Giveaways

I think entering blog giveaways and NEVER WINNING is hurting my self-esteem.

An Antique

I just found out that I own a book printed in 1794. Shouldn't I be rich or something?

Sometimes People Sleep In

That includes life guards and locker room desk attendants, but I have to say I'm really glad that the happiness and success of all the females on campus who want to work out before seven in the morning is not dependent on me hearing my alarm. Kind of takes the pressure off--you know?

Shopping Sales

Note to self: don't wait until the last day or half the things you wanted are gone. : (

Word Choice Fashion

I think "lovely" is the latest--am I right? Following words like cool, awkward, and golden. I'm trying to think of others.

P.S. Google images returned this picture fourth in a search for "lovely." I think they're right; it is.

Notecards

Reminding me how grateful I am that I'm a college graduate. Sometimes I see people studying note cards as they walk to school. I don't think grad school would be worth going back to that, at least I don't think so right now.

I am Not a Scientist

Nothing close. But at least I can edit, which makes me useful to the bread-winning effort of our family. I like that.

Scooters, Mopeds, Etc.

I don't know the difference between them, but can someone tell me where they fill up? I've never seen one in the gas station--isn't that a little funny?

Pajama Day

Sometimes I don't get dressed. Or shower. My neighbor looked at me funny when I went out to get my mail because I was in pajamas (fully covered though, I tell you).

When it's 3:51 p.m. and you're still in your pajamas what do you do to get out of the rut? Please, I'm open for suggestions. Blogging is not fixing the problem.
