The Chicken or the Egg?


23 or 26? Mayo or butter?

I’m such a goober. The capacity of my brain rarely disappoints, with the exception of two things. One doesn’t matter much. The other makes me wonder if I have too much testosterone. 🙂

First, the big one, is that I often can’t remember when my anniversary is. Isn’t that male of me? (No offense, guys, but remember that every cliche started with truth.) Kevin and I married twelve years ago on March 23rd. My dad’s birthday is the 29th. I think of them being six days apart, and it swirls around in my brain and comes out March 26th. So if I cast a furtive glance at my husband before answering, you know I’m fifty-fifty on which day is right.

The other thing, teensy-tiny in comparison, is not remembering the correct order of making a fried egg sandwich. Dumb, huh? For some reason, I always forget if the mayo or butter goes on the bread first. Sounds healthy, doesn’t it? 😉

Lunch today found me staring at the bread, staring at the condiments, bread, mayo, butter, mayo, butter, mayobutter. I put the mayo on first. Wrong!

I’ve been doing a little updating on our website, Ashberry Lane, so please go check out the changes. We’d had reports that our “contact us” links weren’t always working so I redid those. Added new pictures on the “About …” pages. Then I figured out how to put our picture in header–so exciting!

Let me know what you think.

    LOL! You’re not alone. I have trouble remembering how long it takes to cook fresh corn on the cob. Oh, and that red stuff you put on hamburgers – oh yeah, ketchup.

    Blessings,
    Susan 🙂
