Things on My Mind

 Simeon
Lots of you have been asking how he's doing!
He's been more like himself, since New Year's day!
He's happy and busy 
 I tried to watch Downton Abbey yesterday 3 times...Just couldn't do it
with crawling, giggling playful babes around!
You can see it here though, online,
 I am watching it during my evening pumping
(don't tell me what happens, I'm only half way through it)
Does anyone out there NOT watch Downton Abbey?
Just curious...
 Laundry soap
Just curious
(I titled this "Things on My Mind)
I've heard of lots of people making their own
Why?
What's wrong with Tide or this Era stuff?
Do you make your own because of money?
 Made these muffins yesterday for breakfast
Got them off Pinterest
There's lots of ideas on there, you just never know if they work or not
baking eggs in muffin pans--check!  It works, hard baked eggs!

Pumpkin Muffins

yellow cake mix
1 can of pumpkin
bake 350 for 25 minutes

2 ingredients done--check!  
Not as good as homemade pumpkin muffins (regular recipe)
but great for something quick!

 OK, another curious thought
Minnesota gives lots of benefits to Somalis I guess
so we have lots of them living here.
(and lots of smoke shops now)
I see them mostly in the grocery stores (Wal-mart)
and at parks
I'm not prejudiced here, just noticing something
they do not acknowledge we exist
(unless they have a question or they happen to be a teen working at said Wal-mart)
Unlike the Hispanic community here, they are friendly
and seem give smiles and eye contact.
Even the Somali mamas don't talk when their kiddos are following my kiddos 
all over the park

Why do we never see them 
On vacation anywhere
or 
in any restaurants?
In fact whenever we go out to eat,
(which isn't that often, but over a years time, I've noticed this)
there are no Somalis there. 

I just find it  odd...is it because of their faith?
Is it because of lack of money?

Curious minds want to know, but they won't talk to me.


I also found this on Pinterest
I'm am so doing this!  

Any curious questions out there like mine?  
Is my mind the only one that things odd things all the time?

I'm sure I'll think of more as my day goes on...


Making a Comeback!

 Wow! So, it's been a few years since I've been on this old blog! I have some updates to work on but thought I'd start today! Ab...
