What's on your Monday Menu?
^^This one is for Sheila!
Good morning all! Hope everyone had a great weekend. I had an awesome cookie decorating class yesterday! The new space I have at the college was incredible and I am excited to do more there! So much better than the breweries. Unfortunately, all of the set up and break down hurt my hands again and I was in so much pain last night that I had to get up and put lidocaine cream on them to sleep. But it worked, so all good.
Today is all school work all day.
QOTD: Happy first day of Spring! What's your favorite outdoor activity? I'm simple -- I like easy nature walks. We have a beautiful park nearby that is in the woods but opens up to a few ponds. Now that I think I have gotten my outdoor allergies more under control, I want to get over there more often this spring :)
Accountability: The worst. Too much entertaining and too many leftovers. But we ran out of the crappy food, so it's back to plan today.
B: Protein coffee & egg bites
L: Street chicken tacos
D: chicken

Wow. My father would not have tried to cover up "theft" of cookies. "The cookies are in my house, they're my cookies."
QOTD: I'm not sure I have a favorite outdoor activity. Hmm. I know my least favorite outdoor activity is weeding. I hate weeding.
Pizza is gone. Back to regular eating. Time to open a ham.

Ahhhh. Light dawns on Marblehead. I guess that reveals a lot about me. I never would have thought about stealing the money. Just the cookies.
Leave the money, take the cookies. Leave the gun, take the cannoli.

Think your dad and mine would get along.
There's a small peppered ham in my fridge. It's waiting for Easter, or for me to decide what to do with it, whichever comes first.

I only had a son so no Girl Scout cookies, but every year Kevin sold World's Finest Chocolate bars. When it was time to turn in the money there was always a bunch missing because my husband would eat the chocolate bars and not put the money in.
Those chocolate bars were the main fundraiser for our Catholic schools. When I first started dating my husband, he told me that he used to drink alcohol but had given that up. One day my brothers were selling their chocolate bars and went into a local bar. My then boyfriend was sitting at the bar drinking beer. He begged them not to tell their sister that they had seen him there and bought all of their chocolate bars as a bribe.
The minute they got home they could not wait to tell me that Joe was drinking beer at the tavern and had bought all their chocolate bars. He was so busted!
