Remember as a child creating suction with a cup and thinking how neat it was to have the cup stuck to your face...the longer the better? ...come on, I know I wasn't the only one...

Well, it's one of those things that doesn't get old with kids, it's a classic, like spinning around until you get dizzy, or jumping rope. Here's Blade with his marking. I'm just glad that he didn't leave it on so long that he had a "hickey".

Later I realized that a hickey would have been better than what Blade added to his face later in the day. While I was talking with Sheila last night, he was playing with a dining room chair and the chair flipped and his tooth met the inside of his lower lip...luckily it didn't cut through and there were no loose teeth, just alot of blood. But Blade is a tough boy and minutes later he was fine and ready to jump around again. The lip is abit swollen today but not too bad.

Something Canadian eh?

Did you know that Canadians like their potato pearls? I didn't but apparently they like them so much that a company down here packages them especially for the Canadians, notice the maple leaf AND the English/French wording. I haven't seen that for long time!

see...directions in French and English.

My friend Krissi brought them over yesterday because she knew that I would get a kick out of it. Her husband, Kevin, is a food broker and when he saw this at his company, he thought of me...of course. I have the greatest friends! And I do love potatoe pearls!
