Junk Food

No, my dear readers, your eyes are not deceiving you: this is truly a brand-spanking new post on Frantically Simple! Contrary to what you may have suspected, I am not a) in a coma, b) touring with the circus or c) recuperating from a terrible accident in which has rendered all ten of my fingers useless for typing. I’ve just been juggling too many balls to keep the old blog updated.
Remember these:
cookie time!
They weren’t really for me – although a few of the boxes managed to find their way to my thighs cupboard. I am in charge of cookie sales for Newt’s troop. The last month I have been literally up to my ears in cookie sales. Thankfully, this is the last weekend. Many of our unsold boxes will be sent to soldiers serving overseas. Anyone want to sponsor a box for $4? Leave a comment or email me and I’ll give you instructions on paying via paypal.

One day, while driving to pick up even more cookies, Newt screamed at me to STOP THE CAR! Have you ever had your child do that? I almost pooped my pants. What was wrong with my little lovely? She had seen the great white whale this:
OscarMayer_Wienermobile

Do you find it odd that most people go their whole lives without ever encountering the WeinerMobile, yet we have seen it twice by accident? I guess we’re just awesome like that.
hot dog!

Newt has added Hotdogger to her career goals.

And can you blame her?
She has quite extensive plans including an education at Oregon State and dual triple quadruple careers in physics, zoology, linguistics (for the military), and hotdogging. When she likes something, she loves it. Can you tell?
It’s been so long since I’ve blogged that I can’t quite remember how to end. So I think I will just stop typing.
Now.
Wait – I almost forgot! I’ve got a great review coming up next week. Be sure to watch for it.
Okay, now.

    I will sponsor a box via paypal :)

    My friendly neighborhood girl scout cookie seller missed me this year, we didn’t get a single box :(

    I just sent a package out to my son this morning (Iraq) that contained (among other things) boxes of GS Thin Mints. His absolute favorite. Thank you so much for sharing your ‘leftovers’ with our troops; I know they will appreciate it.

    Justin has only been there a few days so we dont really know what his needs / wants will be yet, but I knew he would ‘need’ GS Thin Mints no matter what!

    Oh, and my daughter and I were almost run off the road by the Weiner-Mobile once when we were in Nashville. It was quite frightening for a moment!

    (Side note: I’ve also seen an almond Hershey Kiss driving down the interstate somehwere in Ohio – as well. Now THAT was weird! I honked and waved at the driver, but he was so embarassed he wouldnt wave back!)
