Currently Watching: Scrubs - The Complete Fourth Season
Now for something entirely Random:
How do you know you have spent 6 days with 2 college students (Chris and Jess)?
You find a package of peanut butter Oreos on their kitchen counter and decide to try one. You notice that the Oreos are "stale" and tell one of the college students living there that the Oreos are stale. Her Reply is, "it's okay, Mom. They still taste good!"
She then continues to place them on her pantry shelf "unclosed." (Grin)
That was too good not to share... Boy, I really miss the two of them!!!!
I had a fun Christmas with Chris and Jess. As always, a good visit is over too soon. I left a bit of "home" in their fridge: my rocky road fudge (which I showed Jess how to make...HINT HINT), My homemade pumpkin bread/muffins, and Pumpkin Chocolate chip cookies.
Whenever I make my pumpkin bread when Jess was "home", she would come in from school and say, "the house smells like Christmas!" When Chris brought Jess home from her job (while I was there), the first thing Jess said coming in her front door was, "it smells like HOME!" I had just made a batch of my pumpkin bread for them...the look on her face was worth it!
Karen and Terry came in Christmas day and Jess cooked a spiral ham with carrots and potatoes for all of us. She did a great job! We later played a few rounds of Movie Scene It. Chris demonstrated his famous "victory dance down the hall and back" when his team won a game. Before it got too late, we all went over to Harding to enjoy their beautiful Christmas lights that decorated the campus.
I was hoping for a white Christmas that was half way predicted. I've never seen a white Christmas, so I was a little excited at the prospect. It ended up raining Christmas Eve. It was still a good week!
Karen and I took advantage of one of the good sales at Bath and Bodyworks, where Jess and Mandy work. When I got home, Robert asked why my bag was heavier than when I left. I admitted to mopping on the shower gel sale at Jess' job! LOVE that Mango Mandarin Shower Gel!
Work starts back at school tomorrow!
Leave some love.....
