thirsty thursday & fat sock craziness


so, starbucks has unveiled their new logo!  personally, i think i like the older ones better.  the cup usually has a sleeve on it anyway, so is the logo on the cup even seen?  i wonder if the cup sleeve has changed? Since our town has NOT ONE Starbucks, I guess it will be a while before I know the answer to that question...

dinner last night didn't turn out to well.  The kids decided that soup and grilled cheese sounded good, so after sticking the sandwiches under the broiler I turned to Words with Friends on my iphone, and when I turned around the kitchen was filled with smoked.  Needless to say, mom got to eat burnt grilled cheese tops for dinner last night....

everyday my kid complains about his "fat socks".  they are no show socks that are a little big, but fit perfectly fine in my opinion.  he has a couple of pairs that are  little small and those are his favorite.  so on those days instead of hearing the whining about the fat socks, he shouts, "yay, NO FAT SOCKS!!"  i seriously dream about fat socks!

this morning:

me: Ethan, get your bottom over here and get dressed for school! you are going to be late!
Ethan:  I DON'T WANT TO GO TO SCHOOL.  NONE OF MY FRIENDS GO TO SCHOOL. I AM THE ONLY KID THAT GOES TO MY SCHOOL.
me:  You're going to school (as i put on his socks).
Ethan:  Oh, my gosh, I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!!!
me: Can't take what?
Ethan:  THESE FAT SOCKS YOU MAKE ME WEAR EVERYDAY!

    Oh Ethan! Your kids crack me up. I remember when Jaxon and Ethan taught Jakob that his blankie was actually a "B". And then we learned that "B" is a girls, she has legs, and talks. The fat socks are funny but I would think fat socks would be big like tube socks.

Alas, Mexi Rolls

Could it get any better than this? Maybe, but not likely.  What are the odds that this small town in Wyoming, that we now proudly call home, has a Taco John's ?  Now, not everyone here has the same respect for the Potato Ole's, cheese dip, Pizza burger and Mexi Rolls that I do, mainly people that are from Texas and just don't understand the concept of Mexican fast food. However, all my Murray, Kentucky peeps who grew up with that six pack and a pound know where I'm coming from when I say Taco John's is on my "have to eat at list" every year when we travel back home.  And though we may not admit it, we all secretly get a little rage of jealousy when we read on Facebook about someone's trip home and they have 'checked in' at Taco John's. Or what about when somebody is on a road trip and they post that they have stumbled upon a Taco John's and they are now enjoying something out of that brown paper bag and then us folks that live in Taco...
