Aaah, peanut butter. I can not help it; I love the stuff! Therefore, it's only just and fair ... or at least logical ... that out of my love of peanut butter, a story was born. Yup, here's the whole mouthful of a title, "Children's Short Story: Funny Mystery Story for Kids About a Missing Jar of Peanut Butter."

Or, if you want the shortened, highly imaginative subtitle, "The Case of the Disappearing Peanut Butter."

Barry Anderson discovers that the peanut butter jar is missing. He suspects his twin brother, Scooter, is swiping the lovely, creamy, delectable, yummy ... oh, sorry, I got carried away at the thought of peanut butter, and peanut butter cookies, and peanut butter toast ... and oops, still carried away.

So, Barry suspects his twin brother is the thief. But would Scooter really do such a thing? To find out, head over and read the "Children's Short Story: Funny Mystery Story for Kids About a Missing Jar of Peanut Butter."

And hey ... it doesn't really matter if you're no longer a kid and you read it. Or even if (gasp!) you don't like peanut butter.

Until next time ...

I just put on the "Google Friend Connect" button here at the site, so now you have two cool ways to follow ... by Google or by email. Which is your favorite?

Even though you didn't ask, I'll tell you mine. (That's one of the perks of being the blog owner, right?) I prefer to follow by email, because I find that it catches my attention when an email comes in. I bat my eyes and say, "Ooo, so-and-so must love me. They sent me an email telling me they have a new blog post up!"

Well, okay, maybe I don't really bat my eyes. But, I do prefer email notification.

So, there you have it ... all the thoughts from my brain for the moment.

Oh! If you're looking for a fun, tongue-in-cheek article to read, try, "5 Reasons to Arrive Late for Your Own Funeral: Elizabeth Taylor Did It, so Why Can't You?"

I've posted a new article for foodies out at Associated Content: Bible Verses for Foodies.

Those who like to eat (yes, we foodies know who we are!) will find it fun to know that there are Bible verses about food. For example: Luke 15:22-23. In the Parable of the Prodigal Son, the father rejoiced at the return of his son, whom he had previously considered lost. "But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry ...."

There you have it. Confirmation that there's nothing wrong with enjoying food ... just the kind of reassurance any foodie would love! Take a minute to head out to Associated Content and read Bible Verses for Foodies. Oh, and don't forget to look at the picture. Ooo, such a luscious hamburger!

Until next time ...

Tornado Hits Churchill Downs ... by Cindy Lynn

Thoughts by Associated Content Contributor, Cindy Lynn
Tags: Triple Crown, Churchill Downs, Kentucky
Derby, Associated Content




While sitting in a restaurant and eating a burger, I noticed a news bar announcement on the bottom of the TV screen ... a tornado had hit Churchill Downs. The television showed photos of some of the destruction, and although it didn't look like everything had been damaged, it was still somewhat shocking. After all, the Kentucky Derby took place there just last month and for horse racing fans, Churchill Downs is the first step in the Triple Crown ... a victory that no horse was able to claim this year.

And then the show went back to something more important, like a commercial, or some political commentator who wished to opine. Well, ok, I'm being a little sarcastic here, but you'd think Churchill Downs experiencing a tornado might constitute a little more exposure than a news bar.

Just in case anyone's wondering ... yes, they did cancel the horse races until Friday.

Until next time ...
