Never On A Sunday

-




Not this Sunday at any rate, but hopefully by Monday evening, I'll post the next installment of Convictions. 


Life has been hectic here.  The aftermath of flooding was an influx of insects, particularly ants.  Had to leave the house yesterday while they were being fumigated.  The good news is that we saw "How To Train Your Dragon" while we were out.  And that there is no sign of the nasty little critters today. Good thing, because the temperature just reached 100F and there's plenty of humidity to enhance that sweltering feeling.  Sufficient misery without adding the ants.    My granddaughter added to the day by falling and cutting her thumb.  It bled.  Profusely.  Finally got it stopped.  The excitement never ends!

My blog is up at the new domain, but I'm still repairing some links and dealing with some other idiosyncrasies.

So there's my excuses.  Hope you'll return tomorrow.

On Easter morning, we awoke to overflowing baskets. The Bunny knows us well, so our loot included plenty of jelly beans. Not ordinary jelly beans, but Jelly Belly beans. The Jelly Belly history dates back to 1869 when the Goelitz brothers came to the US and started a candy factory. But it was almost one hundred years before they began to produce jelly beans. Ronald Reagan became a fan while he was Governor of California and they traveled with him to the White House. The blueberry Jelly Belly was created so that Reagan could serve red, white and blue jelly beans at his inaugural parties. Jelly Belly also holds the honor of being the first jelly bean in outer space. These quality jelly beans come in a wide variety of flavors. One category, the Harry Potter inspired BeanBoozled, includes Toothpaste, Dog Food, Rotten Egg and Skunk Spray flavored beans. I'm not that adventurous, but there are plenty of other flavors to choose from. If you haven't guessed by now, Grandma&

Yesterday was National Pancake day.  Hope you enjoyed some.  If not, it's never too late.  This versatile food tastes great and costs little to make.  That's reason enough to celebrate in the current economy.   We frequently enjoy them as an evening meal.  My granddaughter calls it "breakfast for supper".  Give it a try.
