My MIL is a remote news flasher with the TV blasting at all hours. Too much bad stuff going on so I like a mind numbing romantic historical novel to read and not think. Some refer to them as Trash but I find them to be rather effortless reads. No thoughts to process just flow with the written word. Not at all like the book I just finished "The Devil in Pew Number Seven" which is a true story of the authors life and I only read it because she lives here in Franklin TN. I think I will jump back to a guilty pleasure. lol Peace Lady Di Tnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13314994067842063387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-10570741251132861232013-06-04T13:43:59.077-07:002013-06-04T13:43:59.077-07:00Hi Pat...I have a particular brand of ice cream th...Hi Pat...I have a particular brand of ice cream that is a pleasure of mine....other than a good homemade ice cream, Peters Ice cream is the only one I like...ummm....love!<br /><br />Nice to see you. :)Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-35048510189670483202013-06-04T13:41:39.113-07:002013-06-04T13:41:39.113-07:00They would scare me, too, Jerry if I found myself ...They would scare me, too, Jerry if I found myself up close and personal with one!<br /><br />I've cooked a few, though...Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-86385706175137646142013-06-04T09:48:32.867-07:002013-06-04T09:48:32.867-07:00Agree with you about guilt.

Although most of that turns out to be on the weekend.<br /><br />A coworker was recently knocking people who watch Dancing with the Stars, by saying that she is so glad she has "a life" and doesn't "waste time" with things like that. I told her I consider that I have a life, but that I watch that show whenever it's on and don't mind saying so. Shaking head. I agree - it's all good.
