THIS AND THAT * One afternoon while I was playing superhero with my sweet Trent, he started getting out his Marvel action figures, which include Captain America, Black Panther, Ironman and Spiderman. We started playing and had an entire scenerio worked out about how we were going to fight off the villain Thanos, when Trent said he remembered that he had another hero who could help fight.

* Found out my sweet niece did the same thing that I did for the Fourth of July holiday! I didn’t have time to mow my entire lawn before that weekend, so I only mowed the front lawn to make it look presentable. My niece did the same thing! We must be related!

A LITTLE OF THIS AND A LITTLE OF THAT! * At the end of the day I am thankful that my blessings are bigger than my problems. * Dear Optimist, Pessimist and Realist, “While you guys were busy arguing about the glass of water, I drank it!” Sincerely, The Opportunist.

THIS AND THAT * I hate when people tell me I’m lollygagging when I’m clearly dillydallying! But if I am honest, I really love to dawdle.

* June 11th was my Dad’s birthday so I thought I would celebrate it this year by passing along a simple recipe for Beer Bread. Why I am doing this? Because Dad liked nothing better than a cold MGD on a hot summer day, and Mom loved to bake bread, cinnamon raisin being one of her favorites to eat!

* I am going to brag again about my niece Jenny. She was commissioned to paint a large mural in the new elephant exhibit at the Kansas City Zoo. Pretty cool!
