The smell of baking bread or yeast rolls...is one of the most reassuring and comforting of cooking smells evoking hearth and home. (I don't bake or seldom do.)
Are there watering restrictions where you live ? No, water is plentiful here and very very inexpensive (compared to California); it tastes delicous and is very soft....after a shower you feel as if you had put on talc.

Like younglisa7 said on Peter, Paul, and Mary's "Puff The Magic Dragon", that song doesn't hold a candle as opposed to today's music.

Share one random fact about yourself ?
OK, I'm 3o-something, which means that Puff the Magic Dragon was out for a good 15 years by the time I was 5, so now I am very curious why I remember that song so well from childhood........was it a very popular song for THAT long??? (Must have been my parents)

I still haven't figured out what to do with my life! Just for fun:
Are you going to wear something green tomorrow for St Patty's Day ?
Yes, I have a couple of green tee shirts so I will wear one of them. DD has a pair of green pants, so she can wear that, hmmmm...thought my son didn't have anything green but I just remembered that he's got a green rugby shirt, so he can wear that.
I always try to wear something green on St. Pat's Day. Now I need to figure out when the Parade is (hope it wasn't yesterday!!)
Artichokes Yay or Nay ?
Yay.
Hope you all had a nice weekend :-)
