PAY IT FORWARD

BART AND I HAVE TRIED TO LIVE THIS MOTTO.

WE HAVE BEEN HELPED THROUGHOUT THE YEARS

AND HAVE ALWAYS TRIED TO PAY SOMETHING FORWARD.

I AM MARRIED TO A VERY GENEROUS MAN

THAT IS ALWAYS THINKING HOW HE CAN HELP OTHERS.

THIS IS A FUN WAY TO SHARE OUR TALENTS.

TELL YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS TO TAKE A LOOK.

SO.... LEAVE A COMMENT... PLEASE

I WANT TO SEND YOU SOMETHING.. !!

Pay it Forward Exchange
This is how it works: Pay It Forward Exchange is based on the concept of the movie "Pay it forward". I will send a hand made gift to the people who leave a comment to this post on my blog requesting to join the PIF exchange. All the gifts will be made and posted out 'sometime within the next year'. How exciting to not know when your surprise package will arrive! What you need to do in return, is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog. This Exchange is only open to those with active websites or blogs. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS PROMISE TO POST THIS SAME 'PAY IT FORWARD' MESSAGE ONTO YOUR BLOG, WHICH MUST BE ACTIVE IN ORDER TO PLAY. YOU WILL PAY IT FORWARD TO THREE PEOPLE WHO COMMENT ON YOUR BLOG. I'd love for you to join me! Will you? Other comments are welcome, but only the first three will be my Pay It Forward recipients. Come and join me who doesn't love a gift or giving gifts???

I will say that I changed the wording... It was to the first 3 that left a comment.. But I changed it to ALL those that leave a comment.. This is going to be so fun... I can't wait ... What I have in mind to make is a personnal item for each person that comments.. not generic.. So leave a comment and I will pay it forward... :)

IF YOU DON'T HAVE A BLOG, MAKE ONE, IT ONLY TAKES ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND IT IS A WONDERFUL WAY TO KEEP IN TOUCH WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS THAT ARE NOT CLOSE TO YOU.

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED

NOV. 1ST 08:
I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS PART TIMERS OR WHAT BUT.. A FUNNY THING HAPPENED THIS DAY.. I WOKE UP AND SAW THAT WE HAD 4 BANANA'S THAT WERE GOING BAD.. NOT WANTING TO WASTE THEM, I DECIDED TO MAKE SOME BANANA NUT BREAD.. SO I STARTED MY RECIPE.. I EVEN PUT THE BUTTER IN THE MICROWAVE TO MELT A BIT FASTER.. I GOT TO THE VERY LAST INGREDIANT (NUTS). AND THERE WERE NONE IN THE FRIDGE.. I COULD HAVE SWORN I HAD NUTS IN THE FRIDGE.. I ASKED BART IF HE THREW THEM OUT.. HE SAID HE DID NOT TOUCH THE NUTS.. HMMMM I CLEANED OUT THE FRIDGE JUST A FEW DAYS BEFORE COULD I HAVE THROWN THEM OUT ACCIDENTALLY..?? I MUST HAVE OR SO I THOUGHT.. WELL I DECIDED THAT WE WOULD HAVE OUR BANANA NUT BREAD MINUS THE NUTS.. AND SO I PUT THE BATTER IN THE PAN... AND BAKED IT ON 350 FOR 45 MINUTES... JUST RIGHT.. WE ATE SOME OF IT WHILE IT WAS WARM AND ALTHOUGH WE MISSED THE NUTS.. WE THOUGHT THAT IT WAS OKAY... WELL LATER THAT EVENING I WAS COOKING DINNER AND OPENED A CUPBOARD THAT I DONT OPEN VERY OFTEN.. AND A WHOLE BAG OF WALNUTS FELL ON MY HEAD.. I HAD PUT THEM AWAY WITH OTHER ITEMS.. I PRECEEDED TO COOK DINNER LAUGHING AT MYSELF FOR BEING SO FORGETFUL... WENT TO THE MICROWAVE TO COOK MY BEANS.. BUT HAD TO MOVE A CUP OF ONCE MELTED NOW HARDENED AGAIN BUTTER.. HMMMM WHO PUT THAT IN THERE... ??? GHESSSSSSS...

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON MY WAY TO WORK.. OKAY MAYBE IT WASN'T THAT FUNNY.. I WAS GETTING GAS ($2.76 A GALLON).. AND A LADY PULLS UP IN AN OLDER TEAL COLORED CAR.. I AM WATCHING A LITTLE KID SPITTING SPIT WADS AT AN OLDER SIBLING.. I SMILED THINKING OF MATT ANTAGANIZING LORA.. THEN I HEARD AN ENGINE START AND A SCRATCHING NOISE. AS I LOOKED UP THE LADY IN THE TEAL CAR HAD DROVE AWAY WITH THE GAS HOSE STILL IN HER CAR... I WHISTLED AND WAVED AT HER.. SHE WAVED BACK AND PROCEDED TO THE STOP SIGN... I LAUGHED... AND LAUGHED.. HOW COULD SHE NOT HAVE HEARD THAT HOSE HITTING HER CAR ALL THE WAY DOWN AS SHE PULLED OUT.. SHE IS GOING TO FEEL REALLY SILLY WHEN SHE GETS HOME AND SEES THE GAS TANK STILL OPEN AND SCRATCHES ALL DOWN HER CAR.. FUNNY STUFF.. OKAY I GUESS YOU HAD TO BE THERE...
