Happy "almost" Gobble Gobble Day, my friends!

In honor of the holiday tomorrow, I thought I'd share the joy of some really bad great Thanksgiving Jokes!!!
(Don't thank me yet . . . you haven't read the jokes.)
  1. Which Thanksgiving food has grandchildren? The Gran-berry sauce.
  2. What sound does a turkey's phone make? "Wing! Wing!"
  3. How many cranberries grow on a bush? All of them!
  4. What do goldfish say on Thanksgiving? Happy TANKS-giving!
  5. When a turkey picks his nose, what comes out? A Gobble-Goober!
  6. What did the pilgrims have to clean after the first Thanksgiving? MESS-achusetts!
  7. What do you wear to Thanksgiving dinner? A Har-VEST!
  8. The pilgrims' cow came to America on what ship? The Mooo-flower!
  9. Teddy Bears have what in common with turkeys? Both have stuffing!
  10. Hippies put what on their turkey and potatoes? GROOVY
Sorry if that was painful! I guarantee someone at your Thanksgiving table will laugh at those (it may just be a 7 year old, but hey . . .you'll be a HIT with them!) And if they don't, just blame it all on your really silly blog friend (me!)

I guess that picture above brings the silly out of me, because I every time I see the expression on that turkey's face, I laugh. It's funny to know that turkeys can actually have expressions, don't you think? PG took the photo of that Mr. Turkey during a trip to a pumpkin farm a few years ago. I laughed as PG stuck his camera in the fence to try and catch that perfect turkey pic, and this turkey was having NONE of it . . . he quickly came towards PG and even pecked right at PG's camera lens. PG, being the fast moving snapper he is, got this picture just in time! (AND he was injury free! Thank goodness!)

As I spend today having great family fun (PG is home, I am off work, and we are going swimming at a nearby club and then, perhaps, we'll catch a early evening showing of the new Disney film, Tangled.) I am feeling blessed for so many things this week, and today it is all for my family. These three people who warm my heart and make all the work, laundry, cooking, cleaning, bills and challenges so very very worth it all!

I wish you a wonderful day with you and yours. If I don't get back before tomorrow - HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! Don't forget to bring your jokes to dinner tomorrow! ;)

My Dream Home Smash Book

Have you ever heard of a Smash Book? If you are a scrapbooker or art journal person, you may have. If you are not one of those types, you may not have. I am a scrapbooker . . . but had no idea what a Smash Book was. That is, until my dear friend Peggy brought hers to our Scrapbook Cellar gathering last month. She introduced us all to her cool little composition journal, and the conversation went something like this: PK :  Here is my Smash book. Me : Your what? PK : My Smash Book. Me : Like, smash, what? PK : Smash . . . things. You know. Like, stuff. Me : What? PK : See . . . I will put stuff in here. Junk. Things I don't want to lose, but don't know what to do with. Me : Huh? PK : Smash. Me : I don't get it. PK : Google it. CE (our friend, Cindi, who just entered the conversation and saw was PK was holding): Oh, a Smash Book! Cool! Me : Huh? CE : Google it. LT (my sister, Laura, who is right there with me): I don't get it. So, I googled it. ...

Any Day Now . . .

Any day now . . . Any day now . . . we will see you in all your glory, and the memory of past Springs will become our reality once again.  Any day now . . . I will walk passed you and be reminded of that scene in "Willie Wonka" . . . Gene Wilder as "Willie Wonka" image obtained from Google Image Search. Original site unknown. . . . when Gene Wilder drinks something (that I like to imagine is the sweetest, butteriest, most amazing thing) from a buttercup, and I'll wish just once I could do the same with you. Any day now . . . I will turn the corner of our block and find you waiting for me with your petals wide open, as if wanting to give me a Spring hug, and your scent will make me feel as if the heavens have opened up and sprinkled sweet smells over us all. Any day now . . . can't come soon enough.

Howdy Friends!!! Hope this post finds you all doing well! As part of my blog series "100 Things to Do with Grapes"  (STOP - wait a minute .... are you kidding me??? I don't have a blog series about grapes!!! Oh - but just imagine if I did!!!), I just had to share with you one of my very all time favorite summer treats . . .  Ok, are you even slightly interested? Hang in there with me, ok? Because this easy, summer "yum" is bound to be a favorite of YOURS!!!! That is . . . unless you have a peanut allergy. If you have a peanut allergy, I would STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST making this treat. (Come back Monday for another more appropriate post for you.) If you DON'T have peanut allergy . . . run to the store RIGHT NOW and pick up these three things . . . Seriously . . . it only takes these three things; green grapes, lightly salted dry roasted peanuts, and a bag of white chips. Seriously . . . that is all! So, how do you make these awesome snackies?...
