Having Your Cake and Eating It Too

The 1st Birthday Ritual.
I still can't believe my brother and sister-in-law allow...and encourage this behavior.


Yep.  He really set this up.  Those are my brother's hands.


"Um. Mom. What is that and why did Daddy put it there?"


"Grammy.  I still don't understand. What am I supposed to do?"


"Well. Ok. I guess I'll just play with it then."


"Oooohhh. Deconstruction is kinda fun."


"And it tastes good too."


"Hmmm. I think I did a good job. Do you agree?"


Sometimes you just gotta break the rules and have fun doing it.
Life can be messy, but oh so tasty too.


Tomorrow I get to do something out of the ordinary. I will be meeting, in the flesh, a person from the blogosphere. To put a face, complete with expression and tone, with the voice heard through her words on her blog will definitely be like having cake and eating it too. It's not quite a year since I started this blog, but I think it's okay to celebrate a little early. Rules were meant to be broken occasionally.  Right?

  6. Oh boy, I had such fun today. Three hours never passed so quickly. Our blogging friend is a REAL LIFE PERSON.

    But...darn it...I had a camera in my purse and forgot to use it. Proof that Lisa and Merelyme were in the same place at the same time. I'm so glad that my Sweetie and I went on a roadtrip for the holiday weekend and ended up in the Land of Synchronicity.

    We had a very nice time indeed. I'll have to share more later.
