Splish splash I jump in a Mud Puddle
My wife and I were out for a walk not long ago on a well maintained trail but one that still had some mud puddles caused by the rains we had. Alon the way we came across of youngster - and I mean young - and his mom - and knew exactly what to do. He leapt, jumped, and hopped in the puddle with sheer joy and exuberance. For just a moment - and I am sure you are way ahead of me - I have serious consideration to joining him. But, you see, I am an adult and we don't do things like that even though we should - at least every now and again So next time you are out and find a puddle, channel your inner self and jump in. It will probably be fun.
Pi Day
Today may be pi day for the mathematically observant, but every day is pie day for folks like me. I have been partial to banana cream ever since I was a child and still enjoy a slice now and again. But my wife and I have make a pretty good apple pie and that is my new favorite. Speaking of pies and slices, I suppose we can extend pie to include pizza. Italian sausage and mushrooms has typically been my go to combination.
So, what is are your favorite pies?
And does anyone else remember this scene from the movie Michael in which the Andie McDowell character sings about pies?
