Funny and Yet Sorta Sad...
Photo-A-Day #1327

On the way to work yesterday I noticed this sign just as I was driving by. I thought it was funny and decided to make sure I got a shot of it on my way home from work today. This is a local liquor store that has crazy funny things going on all the time. They even have a myspace profile.

It is also kinda sad because Thanksgiving should be a nice time to spend with family but often it becomes an incredibly stressful event. Not making a judgment either way just hope that everyone has a nice Thanksgiving. I do think we’ve all thought about that sign once or twice, though.

Short post tonight because Eva will not sleep, she just keeps crying every time I put her down and when I pick her up she just latches on and won’t let go. I let her watch A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and she was memorized for a while then started playing. I tried putting her down again but she jut screamed. She never does this. But then again she does something every single day that she never does. The crying is getting more intense. Must go.

This is Amish Friendship Bread, it is like a Culinary Chain Letter. One acquires this concoction in the form of a starter. You then have to ‘feed’ the starter. Feeding consists of adding copious amounts of sugar, flour and water. Eventually you get yourself 4 cups of the stuff. Then you make the bread with one cup, keep one cup as a new starter and give two starters away. Do you see where I am going with this?

Allison has now made 3 flavors of this bread. You flavor the bread with Jello instant pudding. I picked up 10 boxes one day, all different flavors. She has made lemon, banana and chocolate. The bread tastes pretty good but I can’t have but more than a single bite because of the diabetes, and even that is pushing things. I’m sure you can just throw the starter out but where would the fun in that be?

I tend to like things like that, which might explain my recent addiction to all of the Facebook Games I have been playing. Games like Mob Wars, Mafia Wars, Gangster Battle, Elven Blood, Skies of Blood, City of Blood, Bloodlust, Pirates: Rule the Caribbean!, Dragon Wars, Special Forces, Speed Racing, Knighthood, Pirates, Superpoke! Pets and many more of them. I’m going to have to ween myself off of them and pick just the ones that I really like.

Speaking of Facebook, today I posted some photos from college and within minutes people that were in the photos were friend requesting me and leaving comments on the photos. That is some amazing social networking.
