Oranges and vinegar do not mix
It's been one of those days...actually, a really good day since not feeling well the two previous days. But, knowing I had to work today I prayed to feel better when turning my light out last night. To my thankful surprise, I did! And then, there were some very nice surprises before the day ended that made me feel happy. In fact, by the time I got home I was cherry and feeling upbeat and just well, maybe trying to do too many things at once. Because, that's when it happened. That's when somehow I managed to knock over the vinegar bottle. Life is funny isn't it? I've liven in my current apartment for the past seven years and never even ever had vinegar on the table before. But, in January, when visiting mom and dad in California, mom prepared fresh spinich a few times and served it with vinegar. So, I promptly came home and got into the "Popye mode" believing I'd become stronger...and found myself buying bag after bag of fresh spinich! Like mother, I wanted vinegar with it...thus taking out my cute little hardly used, eggplant purple vinegar bottle from my Ethan Allen Hutch. For some reason, in the middle of dashing off an email, I dashed off to the kitchen for some important reason...which now escapes me...to retrieve something...which now escapes me...and somehow manged to tip over the apple cider vinegar bottle which totally surprised me! The watery liquid oozed over the dollar bills and change I'd set out for the car wash tomorrow and all over my coveted Steven Covey papers on, "Find Your Voice." Wtih a dramatic reach I saved my date book. As I was saying earlier about oranges...I'd just sliced some fresh oranges and had sprinkled them with walnuts for a late night snack...but the sweet aroma of oranges and the tart smell of vinegar do not mix. Oh, well. Tomorrow is a new day and in spite of spills...flops, or lack of memory, see you at the top:-) Top Blond taking the day...!
