i've lost my mind

....and i can't find it!

what on earth would make a woman want a burnt grilled cheese sandwich with banana peppers on it for lunch?

i'm not sure, but maybe that could be hint #2 for all of you who are taking a guess at what my little secret is!

lets just say my diet, as of late, has been a little....odd.

• 
  
  cold leftover cube steaks fresh out of the fridge
  
• dove chocolates
  
• cheese, lots of cheese
  
• banana peppers on just about ANYTHING
  
• wasa multi grain crackers w/ cream cheese
  
• saltines
  

oh, and last night i had a TERRIBLE craving for an iced coke slurpee

simple and fresh

thats what this treasury is!

and it made the front page!

i love it when that happens!!!

hmmm?

i'm sitting here....

eating goldfish, dove chocolates, and kraft singles....

wondering what in the world i want to say today.
maybe thats why  people have wordless wednesdays.

i know, how about something really random.

yeah, weird things happen around here.

a few of today's examples:

15 - 20 pairs of shoes in various sizes and shapes all neatly lined up on my coffee table

a melted crayon stuck to the bottom of my frying pan

an empty cardboard box hangs from a tree in my front yard (i'm told it is a flying turkey target)

just a few.

today

we remember.

 my brother, and gramma harv's little boy.

in case you were wondering...

HATTITUDE!

thats what it is!

this is a perfect example of how you can give twelve different people a piece of yarn or a scrap of wool, and tell them each to make a hat. each one is amazingly different, and beautiful in its own way.

thanks so much kittykent for including us in the marvelous treasury!
