Captain Crunch or Lucky Charms? It’s a toss up for me. Which one get’s your vote?

Speaking of toss up . . . I came downstairs this morning and saw the kids had already poured bowls of cereal for themselves. I decided to follow suit and have bowl of Life cereal. I poured my bowl, added the milk and began to eat my cereal as I caught up on some e-mails. The first couple of bites tasted funny. I thought it was toothpaste residue conflicting with the cinnamon goodness of Life cereal. But the funny taste never went away. I just ignored it and assumed it was the toothpaste.

I finished my bowl and went to see if the kids were ready to go to the office. They said, “oh by the way Dad we think the milk is spoiled.” You know what it’s like when that light in your brain suddenly kicks in and all the puzzles pieces fit? Yeah, that’s what happened. I went and looked at the expiration date on the milk.

I’m severely college educated and I ate the whole bowl. The kids took one taste and new right away there was a problem with the milk and stopped eating. I think that’s funny.

Speaking of cereal, here‚Äôs a link for a new Cereal Caf?©

Have a good Monday and remember if it tastes funny it’s not the toothpaste!

   We’ll try to update our milk supply before your impending visit.

   ooo. ooo. ooo.

   I’m a “check the expiration date” junkie. I can’t stand spoiled dairy products.

   I really can’t believe you ate the whole bowl! You amuse me.

   Yeah, that’s gross.

   I’m a Cap’n Crunch man, myself. I’ve been eating a lot of Cheerios lately, but now that I’m back at work, I don’t know if I can afford the extra time that costs me in the morning…if you know what I mean.

   “Yes, Steve,” my wife says. “We ALWAYS know what you mean.”

   I got a chuckle out of that one! I love people who can make fun of themselves and let others have a laugh at their expense. That’s one of the reasons I love you, brother!
   I’ve got lot’s to blog about, but not on a computer that’s on a dial up connection. Still in Alabama (Talladega) but will be back to Long Beach, Lord willing, Wednesday night.

   Ha ha.

   Let’s hold hands and pray for the spirit of discernment.

   I’m thinking more along the lines of the spirit of working taste buds.
