In Bloom


On a very different note:
I wanted to post a photo or two of my rose bush in bloom! We have had several roses now... some more yellow in color and some more pink in color. Amazing!



This was the very first bud!


And this is what it looked like when it opened a little bit more.



This is one of the first fully open.


Another.
So Beautiful.

Mmmmm Chocolate...

So, I thought I would return to telling a few clumsy stories. I have many I've been waiting to post, just haven't had it in me to sit down and write. Here goes...

A few years ago I was in with one of my good friends and my husband (boyfriend at the time) at a cute little coffee shop in a cute part of town. We had all ordered our coffee drinks and had managed to snag a table in the corner. We were all sitting around, talking, playing some cards and enjoying the evening in general.

Midway into one of our card games I noticed something on one of the playing cards in my pile. I looked closely, wiped it off and quickly realized it was chocolate. I thought to myself, "That's strange, we haven't had any chocolate." We continued our game... shortly after that there was more chocolate on my cards and upon closer inspection all over my arm and hand. Next I was informed there was some on my face. What in the world!!

I can't explain why these things seem to keep happening to me! Can't a girl sit down with some friends and not be smothered in gooey chocolate that shows up from who-knows-where???
