So Many Things, So Little Time
Saturday, October 30, 2010 at 11:33PM I want so badly to blog each day. I have many things I want to share, or just remember. But, I can't seem to carve out a bit of time in which I can actually gather my thoughts and form coherent sentences and create an entire post about a given topic, whether it be our costumes for tomorrow, or the World Series, or Michaela's sleepover, or our move, or the cheesepie I made. I want to give each thing its own post.
Especially the cheesepie.
It's a cheesecake wannabe, but it is a pretty successful imitation.
Just so that your mind is at ease regarding what is going on in our home that is keeping me away from this blog, I will share one thing. Although it's been busy around here and my laundry has thrown down the gauntlet and then slapped me in the face with a white glove, things are also just as weird as they are normal. Okay, weird is normal here. I can't fool you.
I found this jar on this bookshelf in what is now called the Fun Room. Here, in case you can't tell what it is.
Seriously. What is a Fun Room without Sweet Hots? My kids were so excited to see that these were around!
The truth is I don't have a clue where they came from. If you have any inkling as to why there are sweet pickles and peppers in my Fun Room I'd love to hear from you. Hey, I'd love to hear from you even if you have no idea what this jar is doing in my house much less my kids' play room.
I hope after this weekend I can sit down in the evenings and get back in the game. Maybe scarf down a couple of Tony Packo's Sweet Hots. Possibly cool off with a Peppermint Patty I confiscated. Stay safe if you are headed out and about...and don't eat too much candy before you pass some of it out!
Ha! I bought mine tonight, so there is less of a chance that half of it will be gone before tomorrow evening!
P.S. And Mindee, I can't believe my stellar photography and brilliant use of lighting (or on-camera flash) isn't your favorite on the whole internet! Cut to the heart, that's me!
P.P.S. Mindee, I'm just kidding. I was being endearingly self-deprecating.

Gravity. It's the answer to everything.
Do you still love York Peppermint Patties?!!!
I don't think I've ever seen more adorable or in love pickles.
But then, I guess I just haven't really lived yet.
p.s.~ I too was surprised Mindee doesn't love my photography above all else - I mean, I take photos in public bathrooms. That's a classiness that the pioneer woman just doesn't supply.
