Butterflies Are Not Free

-
I used to have a pair of these.  Buying them at a boot store in my undergraduate college town is a vivid memory.  I literally wore them out --- soles, heels, straps, vamps...  Lots of good times in them.  People are selling them for near $200 now.

It's been a quiet day here.  I did little odds and ends things: replaced a light bulb in one of the porch lights, cleaned the master bath, picked out some frames for some things, you get it.  I even started wrapping gifts.  Hello, zsushing sound from scissors moving through wrapping paper!


This was all fun for a while, but now it's just plain frustrating.
"O'Leavis Canbolle."  Really?  I plan on reading each of the little books --- do you think the insides will be as indechiperable as the covers?

Relax, though.  It's hockey season, which means we get to see
again.  Hey, Henrik --- how you doin'?

I do like that sound of scissors gliding through paper. When I used to have to cover bulletin boards with big pieces of paper off the rolls it was always something that impressed the Kiddie's in class. The Mister is a lefty and can't do it. He didn't even know that was possible.

I had to yell at myself several times yesterday as I did some wrapping--I sounded like the Grinch! lol

Things like this fascinate me Frankly, I  don't see the name of any pet I've ever had on either map.  I'll have to lobby for "Tap," "Barrymore" and "Zen" next year. I'm disappointed in Tennessee for its lack of creativity.

And It Has Been Eaten

I made some banana bread last night.  Well banana/ blueberry bread, as that's the baby food I had.  Also, shout out to my fellow banana baby food lovers.  (You know who you are!)  I went to bed before it was finished baking, so there was a nice morning "surprise" today. Just dropping in to brag on myself.
