+ I hate songs that have police sirens featured in them. They always catch me off guard. A song came on the radio the other day with a police siren, and I desperately looked for a place to pull off of the road, convinced that a high speed chase was happening, despite the fact I was waiting in line at a bank’s ATM.
+I love the Fresh Market’s almond pillow cookies. The almond filling in the cookies tastes exactly like the way sweet almond oil smells. That’s a rare feat. Very few things smell and taste exactly the same. I can’t find the words to describe it, but it is amazing. I think sweet almond oil is one of the most alluring and beautiful smells ever created. I have purchased almond scented shampoos before, only for one reason, the shampoo’s lovely scent. Still, when you think of eating almond shampoo, that sounds absolutely gross, but yet these cookies taste divine, and their taste is totally idiosyncratic with the smell of sweet almond oil. Try them, and tell me that I am not right about this.
+We have been picking up a lot of take-out food lately. I have started taking pictures of the crazy long car lines which I have waited in, in order to get our food. My husband says that waiting in long car lines for take-out at restaurants, has become the new waiting in line for an available table.
And a couple of good quotes by other people:
“People who don’t enjoy food, it’s like I don’t want to work with them or be friends with them.” – John Turturro
“I usually play characters who smoke and drink box wines.” – Allison Janney
“Whenever I need to decompress now, I take my dogs for a walk. They are truly the ultimate therapy.” – Tory Burch
That’s all for a Monday. Keep looking up, better days are coming!!!
I’m laughing so hard at the comment from Allison Janney. Although she played a very elegant character on The West Wing, since then she’s absolutely played the smoking/box wine woman. And she has mastered it! And I love her. She’s one of my favorite actors.
I love her, too, Kelly!
