A relationship worth writing about

-
I know that this relationship isn’t normal and I really shouldn’t rely on you so much for my daily happiness.

But I just can’t help it.

From the moment I see you, my heart skips a beat. I feel a joy come over me . . . like Christmas morning and winning the lotto all at the same time. I know that soon all will be better in my world when I have you in my hands. Oh, this life is good.

There are days when I go without you. When I think that I can survive without your very existence. When I wonder what makes you so special. And I’m ok . . . for a short time. But then, something happens that makes me yearn for you. A late night, or an early morning, might send me into a state of panic if I don’t have you near me. I’ve narrowed you down to the most cost effective way, but just can’t give you up for real.

Some people may think that our relationship isn’t normal.

Some people may worry that I am too dependant on you.

Some people just don’t get it.

When I am cold, you give me warmth. When I am tired, you wake me up. When I am sad, you brighten my day. When I am cranky, you make everything ok. You were born the same year I was . . . and that alone creates a bond like no other. 

I am so glad you came to my town a few short years ago . . .
and I will love you . . .forever.

    I think you have "grounds" for your deep and abiding love. I am sure the feeling is mutual!

    Oh babe...I thought you were talking about me! I feel the same about my coffee. Kathy just came into my office asking if I read your Starbucks post and I told her "no" as I took a sip of my grande Pike Place with 5 pumps of vanilla and cold soy topper. This is truly a dangerous obsession. Send me the number to your SB mini-card you have on your keychain and I will load it up with some $$ so you can find some more happiness. Love You!

    Oh save me from my daughter-in-laws addictions - oh - sorry - too late . . . Just when I was swearing off my love affair with this dark nutty friend - it pulls me back in . . . Love you Leanne - but Starbucks is a very close 2nd . . .

    Starbucks??? You have Intelligentsia, of which I'm insanely jealous!!! Of course, Intelligentsia isn't on every other street corner, so there's a lot to be said for one's beloved making oneself available for affection ... :)

    Here with coffee and four posts to read, forgive me for not commenting on each one individually. They all contained some inspiring words, especially the dream board. I do not like Starbucks but that is because I live where I do :)

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? Fir
