Has your week started well? I hope so. I’ve been keeping busy, but hope normalcy (whatever it is) returns soon. Because reciprocating is important to me, my apologies for being away from reading your blogs. Just want you to know that I’m going through a busy period.
Thanks for all the wonderful comments on my belated Mother’s Day post. My emotions got to me more reading your comments on Tuesday more than thinking about it on Sunday.
With Wednesday being Marshmallow Fluff Day, seems that would be a perfect day for a fluffernutter. For those needing to know more, here’s the recipe for the AFA Deluxe Fluffernutter.
Let’s more on to your mid-week dose of satire. As long time readers know, for those desiring an extra challenge with a twist of fun, rearrange the words from the headlines below to create your own satirical headline. “My combo” is at the end. Have a good rest of the week!
New app matches you to others in vicinity who wasted $2.99 on same app
Dad announces plan to honk when he’s out front
Newly discovered cave paintings suggest early man was battling a lot of inner demons
New employee still eager enough to pick up slack for co-workers
Area man cleans apartment once every relationship
Man attempting to determine whether restaurant closed without getting too close
Barbed wire industry protests negative portrayal in “Evil Within” video game
Bartender doesn’t mind taking picture with you and your friends
Movie-goer sneaks candy past teen worker earning $7 per hour
Report: Average American consuming 4 ounces of cheese right now
My Combo: Industry announces new video game with area dad battling average bartender in cave for $2.99 cheese
There seems to be a lot of busy folks these days, including me. That combined with folks posting more frequently, makes keeping up virtually impossible!

I know what you mean about reciprocating, I always feel bad that there are some people who comment on my blog more than I comment on theirs, but then it works the other way too, it’s never going to work out exactly is it.

I will have to try the AFA Deluxe Fluffernutter. soon. I’m over due on trying it. I usually have the stuff – just not all at once. We’re going to have some work done on the house next week. So- after we settle from that & stuff is back where it belongs – I will make it a point to have all the stuff on hand. I will be sure to post about it & let you know.
Also – as you mentioned the other day – It’s Chicken Dance Day. We’re gonna’ be sure to dance it today for my son’s bday. It’s sure to get everyone wound up – LOL
I can see us deviating & going the Arrested Development route on that too. We (ok – me) can get a little nutty sometimes.
