Teeny Bopper Night

Last night the Jonas Brothers came to town. All of Nashville’s teeny boppers were in heading to the Sommet Center in droves. Like the little lemmings they are.

Can you even name a single Jonas Brother song? I can’t think of a single one.

Pick Your Tater Salad

My mom made a great potato salad. She used fresh white potatoes, real Kraft mayonnaise, and a handful of other chopped vegetables and seasonings.

My step mother made a totally different potato salad. She used Miracle Whip – which I HATE -and yellow mustard and chopped hardboiled eggs.

My mother in law made hers even more different. She used Hellman’s mayo and put chopped sweet pickles in her potato salad.

Who knew that potato salad was such a specialty?

Karma

Some days you are a big fat, lazy June bug.

Some days you are the windshield.

Not sure if I want to be the bug today. I have a feeling that windshields are very threatening.

Toys and Movies

Are there any new movies coming out that DON’T have a complete line of toys associated with them? I mean, the Transformers, the G. I Joe, and even the G-Force gerbils have toys filling shelves at the WalMarts, KMarts and Targets of the world. And let’s not forget the “happy meals” at all the fast food joints that come with the movie promoting toys and PR tie-ins.

Summer Drinks

Around here we drink ice tea, especially over the hot summer months. I like to drink my tea unsweet but most every place around here will bring you sweet tea with a wedge of lemon on the rim of the glass unless you ask for unsweet tea. I like to add fruits to mine once in a while. The current favorite fruit additive is peach or mango. That makes it a fresher taste with body in the tea. But just about any fruit can be added to tea – it’s universal.
