Eliza: Oh, OK

Our Garden

Eliza and I planted our winter garden in October.

Right now we are getting carrots, spinach, and lettuce.

She is very proud!

Christmas Break

My friend Annette gave us a puzzle for Christmas and we spent the next few days putting it together.

Survey Says

When I was a freshman at BYU I have a distinct memory of sitting alone in the basement of my dorm watching TV when The Family Feud came on. As I watched the show, naturally I played along. A question came up that said "Name something that you would do on New Year's Day..."

The people said things like, "sleep it off", "go to the movies," and "clean up Christmas."

They couldn't come up with the #1 answer.

But I knew it!

I yelled it at the TV screen!

It is what we did EVERY New Year's Day growing up!

Surely everyone else did it too!!!

I couldn't believe those people were so dumb that they wouldn't think of it themselves!

Over and over I yelled at the screen!

Go on a picnic! Go on a picnic! Go on a picnic!

That was about the time it dawned on me that, most likely, the people they interviewed for the survey were not ALL from Phoenix, AZ like myself, and most likely, they were not out enjoying the amazing, most perfect, sunny weather that we enjoy here on New Year's Day.

I don't remember what the #1 answer was,

I am sorry for calling those people dumb (even though no one heard me)

But mostly I am sorry for the rest of the world, who doesn't get to enjoy an incredible New Year's Day Picnic.
