Happy Friday, Y’all!

I feel a bit scattered today — I’m going to blame the day of the week and the beautiful sun shining right now.

I can’t believe that April is here, finally. I’m glad though, you know, here in St. Louis it doesn’t guarantee that winter is behind us for good. But, maybe……fingers crossed.

All I can think about is food right now. Mainly, I want some yummy cheese. I don’t think that this blog post, about making the perfect cheese plate is doing me any good, either.

Oh well, it’s good information, anyway.

I’m off to locate some cheddar. Y’all have a good day!

June Hymn

by the Decemberists is stuck in my head today.

I love it. I got the CD from the library and I really like the whole thing.

Happy Thursday, y’all, and GO CARDS!!

Kid Poetry

sure is fun. Here are two by my 5th grader.

The First and Most Famous Star
Oh sun of beauty,
Sun of light,
Is not ever seen at night.
With nitrogen and helium,
A star it is that burns so bright.
The gases in ’em,
Are pretty light.

UFO
If you see a U.F.O.,
You’re not likely to say hello.
Instead you’ll run,
Might lose a bun.
If you’re asked to ride one say no.

Ah. These were the hoot I needed today.

Margaritas, Anyone?

I need help, y’all. Specifically, I need someone to point me to a good recipe for margaritas. I’ve seen the mixes in stores, of course, but I was hoping that y’all might know of a good place to start looking for a recipe to make the drink without a mix.

The reason I’m even looking for a recipe is that I came home from my spring break trip to Alabama with this pretty bottle. Isn’t it lovely? My photo doesn’t even do it any sort of justice. It still has tequila in it, too. So, now you know why I’m looking for a recipe.

Great, now I’m craving mexican food.

I hope that y’all are having a pleasant Tuesday!
