"Autumn burned brightly, a running flame through the mountains, a torch flung to the trees."
~Faith Baldwin

The most ironic thing I heard today: Libby said that she got a lollipop today as a reward for good behavior. Then she told me which teacher rewards with candy...it's their P.E. teacher! Isn't he supposed to be teaching about physical education and promoting healthy living, etc? NOT that I'm opposed to candy...i just thought it was funny that the P.E. teacher rewards with candy. That's almost like getting a lollipop at the dentist's office after an appointment, isn't it? :-)

The funniest thing I saw today: Libby and I stopped at the little grocery store that is in our little country town that we now live in and as we were walking past the deli where they have premade food I noticed this sign "Peacan Chicken" There's no doubt how it's pronounced by countryfolk in the South, is there? Instead of pecan it's pronounced pea-can...and they even spelled it out that way. Now that to me was funny! :-)
