I got some happy news today

It’s not my story to share…but the minions, well, they make everybody smile, no?

So this is for all my pals who understand the joy of celebrating when good things come to those you love.

it’s Shakespeare Day [ha!]

Never mind that I always said he was a hack. My friend Jeff would be amused to know I’m coming around. Look, I’m even celebrating Shakespeare Day on my blog.

make a wish!

dandelionI walked outside from work and encountered this perfect little dandelion seed head. It was just waiting for me in the grass next to my parking spot, calling 8 year old me to make a wish.

So I did.

I threw caution to the wind, plucked it carefully, and blew away the little seeds.

And now I wait.

What? NO?!

Did I have to remind you every Monday and Wednesday? Silly peeps, go on over there and see what’s cooking. Literally. As in really. Not that other literal, which means figuratively. I don’t subscribe to that  definition. But I digress…go read my story about trying to make my whole family hate soup, and how a knight in shining armor, weilding banana splits, saved the day.
