Easy Peasy

So my four year old munchkin has started using the term "Easy Peasy" to accurately describe something as easy or no big deal.  Where does he come up with these?  He is one of the funniest people I know.  I probably did not spell Easy Peasy correctly but you know what?  I do not particularly care.  I usually do, a lot. There are some things in life that wriggle their way under my skin and drive me up the wall.  A perfect example of this, one which many people can attest to, would be the incorrect use of "Their."

If you are referring to more than one person partaking in some action then "they are" becomes "they're."  Please do not confuse this with the possessive "their."  And of course who could forget "there" to describe where exactly something is among other uses.  So, if we wanted to correctly make use of these words, we could say that....
They're leaving their dog out to bark all night over there in the backyard.

I'm sorry, I seem to have temporarily forgotten that this is a food and living blog, not a grammar blog!  I will be the first to tell you that I do not have perfect grammar, definitely not.  But there are some common misuses that drive me bonkers!

We went with simplicity last night for dinner.  Chicken nuggets, corn, and broccoli with some Spanish rice for the munchkins as well.  After dinner Prince Charming and I watched the Robert De Niro movie Everybody's Fine.  I did not suspect that it would be such heavy emotional subject matter and I bawled my eyes out.  Yes, I cried like a big baby, sniffling there on my couch while Prince Charming tried his best to hide his laughter at my total emotional breakdown brought on by ninety-nine minutes of cinema.  The crying inevitably led to a headache, which generously decided to stay and keep me company through today.  Arg.  Be gone, headache, you are not wanted here!

We are already half way through Saturday and we still have yet to do anything.  I need to hand my second Topsy Turvy Tomato planter.  I bought another tomato plant to go in the planter that has been sitting on my kitchen counter.  Sadly, I am not sure if my first tomato plant will make it but I am hopeful.

One of my Blueberry plants is growing quite nicely, though slowly, while the other has yet to leaf out at all but also shows no signs of disease or decay which is good I suppose.  I want to make a little raised garden bed for another fuller Blueberry bush, using cinder blocks which are inexpensive.  But prince Charming has some reservations about killing the grass.  Oh well, we will see.
Love, Katie
