Every once in a while I need to record some of the fun things that get said around my house.
Beulah, for instance, recently quiped, "I can easily spend two hours primping and not get bored." She didn't understand why that was funny. Speaking of her primping, she has this lip gloss from Bath and Body Works that is supposed to smell like a chocolate dipped strawberry. It is by far the nastiest artificial fragrance I have ever been around. Whenever she whips it out--in the car, at church, on the sofa or in the park--we can sense its stink immediately. She claims that if she gets another lip gloss for her upcoming birthday, she'll throw it away.
Goose is asking, "Where's John?" all the time. I don't know why. She and Husband talk about opening the door and closing the door, with the door being the mouth. Right now she's saying, "Gimme a bowl, please" to T-Bone.
Speaking of T-Bone, he has a grape-sized watermelon growing. He wants to unlock the Post Token at Pirates Online.
Cheeseball got sunburned the other day when he sat out in our neighbor's sandbox for several hours. She had filled the box with water and just let the hose keep running while the kids sat in the sandy mud. A good way to spend a few hours, provided you've applied sunscreen first!
Janey has taken to tying up the children and calling it "play." We had a conversation and that's not going to happen again. She is looking forward to painting her room.
Husband is taking his practical test for a license this Friday.
I am looking for exciting new ways to present zucchini. The good news with me lately is that I've finally made a spaghetti sauce that Husband and I both really like.
