Dab of This and That

Decorative Touches ?!? Not !!
What? You don't like the latest decorative touch to my kitchen floor?!? Actually I didn't approve of it either, especially since I had to clean the mess up. Not sure how the jar landed straight up like that.
No picture of my other "decorative touch" (being sarcastic here) on the same day, as I was to busy rushing to clean it up before it ran down between the cabinet and stove. Lets just say if white vinegar cleans like they say it does, one section of my kitchen counter is spotless right now. Dang flip tops on vinegar bottles !!
Daughter called later that day and told me about the ketchup bottle that attacked her when she opened the fridge door, and sippy cup that went ballistic. Is there something in the air ??

Tasty Treat: Anyone else tried these little things? I don't usually buy food items in DT - Well I just don't. However, the last time I went I saw these little goodies, read the label and saw they were made in the USA, so bought a can.

Apparently whoever wrote the info to be printed on the container made a major "boo boo", as it says 2 cookies per serving - 5 servings. How do I know this? Cause I only got 2 servings out of my container - they are that good ! :-D
Bought some at the grocery a while back, paid a small fortune and not nearly as good - don't remember what brand.
I have already added a note on my errand list to go to DT for more.

Odds and Ends: Beautiful day here, in the mid 60's and sunshine, so hit the streets to run errands. Marked everything off the list except DT for more piroulines, and getting car tags renewed. Place was packed for car tags (end of month), and just did not want to deal with DT today.
Had some duplicate keys made 2 different locks. Second place I have had them made - total of 3 times, none of which have worked !?&J?%#$@
Some times I feel there is a sign painted on my forehead that says "Do Something to Aggravate Me!"

Lets have a great week!

Too funny! I had an olive oil bottle (big plastic kind) just jump off of the counter the other day. Not so funny.....

Attack of the killer condiments!

Lucky for you that mess didn't fly everywhere:-) Have you ever dropped a jar of honey on the floor? Not fun, it's like trying to wipe up glue.
Glad to hear you're weather is cooperating with you.
Those cookie sticks are delicious. I haven't had this brand, but have tried Pepperidge Farm.

I am clumsy to start with. Just open the fridge door and things come bounding out to attack me for no reason. Last week I reached up in a cabinet for the tea kettle and it fell and landed right in the middle of my glasses and of course left a scar across my left vision!

The mayo is the exact color I need in my hallway! :-) I'm sorry the jar fell but relieved it landed upright. Twice, a me

Oh Oh! Some days are just worse than others. Love those cookies! The ones I'm used to buying are called Pirouettes.

Well at least it didn't splatter all over the place!

Glenda, I bought a can of those one time at Big Lots and they were delicious! I ate the whole can of them in one sitting. Sorry about your spill, but glad it landed in one spot. Enjoying this warmer weather. laurie

Well they say when it rains it pours. I think that when little thing happens it seems to set of a chain of events. Thank goodness it wasn't oil that ran down between the cabinets:)

Oh I love those tasty little wafer things filled. You best watch your floor is not slippery in that area, YIKES! could have been worse, and at least it was not glass! Or is it? It landed perfectly LOL!

I love your blog and I appreciate you always leaving wonderful comments on my blog. I am not kidding - I was almost killed by a frozen pot roast. It fell out of the freezer and hit my foot - ouch!
