You can’t BEET the PEPPER’s, but aren’t the EGGPLANTS just DANDE?
“LETTUCE MIX it up a BEET” was a close runner-up for opening line this week.
Don’t look now but it’s basically August. That means a lot of transition is happening...back to school, back to practices, BACK TO THE FUTURE marathons. (sometimes I just type free associations to see where they go...I’m going to leave this one because I like BACK TO THE FUTURE)
Couple event’s
