You Are a Chocolate Cake 
Fun, comforting, and friendly.
You are a true classic, and while you’re not super cutting edge, you’re high quality.
People love your company - and have even been known to get addicted to you.

Stay With Me Now…
This will be worth it.
So Taylor, the boy…13 years old…learned in Home Ec last year to make these little morsels he affectionately calls ‘Pizzandwiches’ (pronounced: pea-zan-which-iz). They are, in fact, mini pizzas made on an english muffin. So for Middle School Life Groups that meet every Sunday evening, he signed up to take the famous Pizzandwiches. At Kroger on Friday while I am shopping, I send him around to gather all the ingredients. There are 4: cheese, pepperoni, sauce, and english muffins. Fast forward to Sunday afternoon…Taylor and his cousin, Cody (also 13), begin the culinary process. Step one is the separating of the muffins into halves and placing them onto the pan. At some point Cody mentions that there seems to be something in the muffins. Yes, he is correct. In fact, there are raisins in the muffins. Taylor did not bother to read the label as to which kind of english muffin he was picking up. They were cinnamon raisin. He did read the price and was proud to get them on sale…so I guess that’s something. At this juncture, they can’t make Pizzandwiches with cinnamon and raisins and pepperoni and sauce because that would just be gross. So I toast the muffins and send them with butter and jelly.
Goodness gracious.

Going Green(ish-Blue)
Maybe you’ve seen those bags. Everybody has them now…Target, WalMart, Publix, Kroger. I am a big-time Kroger girl. Love me some Kroger…let’s go Krogering. So I figure if I’m such a loyal shopper, I’ll buy some of those bags. Good for the environment, right? Well let me tell you…those things are great! They’re big and have big handles. And Kroger’s are really sturdy, too. I use them regularly now.
I did buy Lynnette one from Publix because their’s are green and green is her favorite color. I have one from Target that collapses and zips up all compact-like. I haven’t actually used it because I like Target’s plastic bags (best ones ever). And because it zips up all compact-like, I never see it and forget I have it.
And my hippie transformation continues, lol.

‘They’ Are Sort Of Right
Of course, one could argue that only Micki would try it to actually see if ‘they’ are right. I not only tried it…I tried 3 times in a row. It is rather fascinating. Stride Gum…toss it in your mouth, wrapper and all, and chew. The wrapper really will just melt into the gum within 5 minutes. Today I plan to buy a whole pack to chew. The only drawback is without a wrapper (because you’re chewing it) where do you put your gum when your done with it…hmm…
Now before you all send me links to Wiki…I know what the company says…but, this has been amazing advertising for them. Idiots like me have been buying that gum just to try and chew it with the wrapper on it and what happens? It works, so we do it again and again because its just ridiculously fascinating.
And I really am that simple at times.
*Hey…I wrote a little ditty about Mom at Complete in Christ. Take a gander.

Just Say No to Orthopedic Shoes
Who knew the day would come? The day I would actually purchase gel heel inserts…and put them in my Chuck Taylor’s. I’m either older and hip, or I have an older hip. I’m on an a rather intense hunt for some good flip-flops because apparently I am addicted and refuse to give those up as well. And when I say ‘good’, I mean something way more supportive than the 2 for $5.00 jobbies they have at Old Navy.
If only my feet, ankles, and legs would work right…

And Speaking of Location…
Yesterday my car picked a most interesting location to die on me. The drive-thru window at Chick-fil-A. And I mean at the window…waiting on the lady to give me change. Yep. Three guys had to come out and push my car into a parking space so I wasn’t blocking the drive-thru, lol.
Car got towed and fixed and all is well now. But that…that is just funny.

Location, Location, Location
So yesterday we met our realtor. Yep, our realtor. We’ve toyed around with the idea for a while and tried to do it ‘By Owner’ for a short time about this time last year I think. We decided to try and sell our house using a realtor and see what happens. If it sells, it sells. If it doesn’t, it doesn’t. We’re okay with it either way. We would like to have a house more conducive to ministry (aka…parking). Our main criteria is that we remain in the same school district. So back to yesterday…we sign with the realtor, get a lockbox, they take some pictures. Today we get a sign in the yard and a phone call. Tomorrow we have a showing. Whoa, lol.
