Another Candy Bar Sign

Dear Paige,
You and Johnny sure are _Hot Tamales_! A little _Whatchamacallit_, 9 months, and the Guists will soon become the _3 Musketeers_. Get ready, though, for some _Shock Tarts_. You may _Skor_ an "easy baby," or a real _Crybaby_, or even a set of _Twix_! (We mean "twins" - ulp!) The lack of sleep may make you into _Airheads_, or it may make you feel like you took some _Numb Drops_. Rest assured, to the rest of us, you'll just seem like new parent _Nerds_. That's okay, you _Crazy Dips_. Those _Snickers_ you hear are just our way of saying that Momma Paige is worth _100 Grand_ and Johnny _Pop Rocks_. We hope you have _Mounds_ of fun raising you new little (non-_Heath_-en) child.
Love,
Jeanne and Louie


This is really old! The child in question will be a middle schooler soon, and I don't think some of these candies exist any more! One less piece of paper in that box I'm working on, though . . . progress!

Candy Bar wedding shower sign

Another in my attempts to clear out papers:

Dear ______ (bride),
The honeymoon may be full of "Sweet Escapes", but the "Symphony" won't last forever. Those "Carefree" early days will give way to the "Crunch" and "Snickers" of the reality of dealing with married life. When the little "Whatchamacallit" comes along, we'll just call you the "3 Musketeers". But don't worry! _____ (husband) will make the "100 Grand" and be the "Lifesavers" on "Payday". Best of Luck!

Fun to do these candy signs, if you can find the right candies!

Birdwing Spa

In my quest to get rid of clutter, I've found it amazingly difficult to recycle a brochure for Birdwing Spa, located in Litchfield MN. My sister-in-law Delavon gave me a gift certificate for my birthday four or more years ago. I spent a day being pampered and I *loved* it! It made me wish to be able to afford to treat other women, especially those much more deserving than I, to such an experience.

My reluctance to recycle this (in light of the fact that I don't even know if the place still exists) seems to indicate that I want to keep this info handy. Certainly, I could google it (and if it exists still, check out the current prices), but I cherish the memory of being treated so well and relaxing so thoroughly. I was the only guest that day, so everything truly was catered to me personally.

Birdwing Spa, 21398 - 575th Avenue in Litchfield. 320-693-6064. Healthy and delicious food, nice trails and workout facilities, excellent spa treatments . . . ahhh.

Tickle My Funnybone!


I saw this when I googled my name and it made me smile. A published author! Listed on Amazon! It's just my alternate plan paper for my master's degree, but I did write it. Funny.
