Random Thoughts


I am having problems with cohesive thinking and expression- So I am just going to post some of my most recent thoughts & activities.


1. The Pioneer Woman has the best Apple Dumpling recipe. Did you know if you substitute blueberries for apples, the recipe still rocks?! It is true & I am baking those baby blueberries right now.


2. Scott & I went to the grocery store after the game tonight. We had just about finished & I said, "Do you have $, because, I didn't bring any." He didn't. I circled the grocery store with my full cart (4 times) while Scott returned home for his wallet. Good times.


3. For 6 years, Scott & I have been trying to go to Hillsborough River State Park...It is only 35 -40 minutes away. For some reason, we never quite made it there. We would try to go & end up stopping @ another park on the river, or another path, or go the wrong direction, or argue about how freakin' hot it was and turn around and go home. Well, today, with the help of Garmin- WE MADE IT!!! It is not a difficult park to find. It is a nice park- not really a wait 6 years to see it nice, but nice enough. Great trails, clearly marked, neat deer, armadillos, etc.


4. I found out the Rosetta Stone offers a course in "Irish" for lots of moola. Do you think that that it is "Gaelic?" IDK.
Clearly, it is time to eat Blueberry Dumplings & go to bed...

In Ireland, people refer to Gaelic as Irish. All through the school years where it is compulsory, and through the summers where the kids spend three weeks in the Gaeltacht, in the (often vain) hope of becoming fluent, they always call it Irish. And a lot of people seem to have a love/hate relationship with Irish. They love the language, and hate to have to learn it...

You jogged my memory of a trip to the grocery store years ago (pre-debit-card days) when I FINALLY got to shop sans kids...
Got all the way through checkout and opened the checkbook to find only deposit slips left...
Needless to say, Tony heard about it for days to come (really it was months...but who's keeping track?!) After all, it was he who was the keeper of the checkbook!!!

Cathy- Thank you for clarifying- I did download Rosetta's trial, but it's demo was Turkish???

TFTDE- How did you pay? I kept thinking that maybe they will feel sorry for me and let me take the food for free...just this once.
