In-between bread

Image from Citarell's Restaurant website. In-between two slices of bread, is the stuff of life some have said. Lunchbags are filled with salty and sweet, but not without grain filled, with lettuce, cheese and meat. Wrapped in wax paper, saran or in foil - this portable meal has a way of delivering joy. Perhaps peanut butter and jelly is the best, it pays no attention to age like some of the rest. Baloney, salami, capicola and spam - is it still lunch meat if it come from a can? Pickles of dill and mayo that's real, help to bring out taste that clinches the deal. Then there is banana, honey and Fluff, when you've had way to much of the other stuff. My tastes and flavors for sandwiches are many, you see. The love of a sandwich is something thats not on the in-between. The troubles of life can be many that's true, but sitting down with a friend over a sandwich, has a way putting things together and pulling you through. T.L. Eastman Oct 2011

Always look on the bright side of life

Image found at Immobilienblasen. Just in case you begin to take yourself too seriously - listen to some Monty Python. It's all good. Always look on the bright side of life Words and music by Eric Idle Some things in life are bad They can really make you mad Other things just make you swear and curse. When you're chewing on life's gristle Don't grumble, give a whistle And this'll help things turn out for the best... And...always look on the bright side of life... Always look on the light side of life... If life seems jolly rotten There's something you've forgotten And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing. When you're feeling in the dumps Don't be silly chumps Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing. And...always look on the bright side of life... Always look on the light side of life... For life is quite absurd And death's the final word You must always face the curtain with a bow. Forget about your sin ...

A little blarney is all you need sometimes.

About this time of year in the north east, it's necessary to liven up the cold and greyness around us with a little random fun. So the first Friday evening of March, I'm planning a "Darby O'Gill" movie and fun night at my church. The evening will be complete with a showing of the film, green punch, and a Pot-O-Gold treasure hunt. You never know, I may even need the help from an authentic leprechaun or two. Any takers? If so, come on by to First Lutheran on March 6th at 6:30pm. Be sure to wear green and bring a snack to share. Time has come to whoop it up with a little silliness and blarney cause spring is on the way! Hooray.
