I bought a package of crumpets at the store recently and this morning I decided to actually eat one. Hot from the toaster and generously buttered...ooh, it was lovely! I'm not sharing the rest of the pack with the family. ;-D Haha, it reminds me of the scene from the film "The Importance of Being Earnest" in which Colin Firth and Rupert Everett are fighting over the basket of muffins. I always get a good laugh out of that part! Once when my husband and I were watching it and we came to that bit, we had to stop and go toast ourselves some english muffins because of the fellow muffin-hunger the scene inspired. ;-) Now I always crave a cinnamon-raisin english muffin when I think of that movie, hee.
I've just discovered that I can purchase tickets online to attend the Dayton Philharmonic's performance of Beethoven's 9th symphony in a few weeks. (I love that one, it would be such a treat to attend a live performance!) I just have to talk the hubby into letting me buy an inexpensive seat and allowing me to abandon him with the kids on a Friday evening...
