I love M&M's. They are such a simple candy. If you think about it they are really just chocolate drips in a hard shell package. Its the same amount of chocolate that, when baking, you drip on the counter when you move the spoon you used to stir the chocolate from the bowl to your mouth.
Growing up we hated cleaning and so my mom always tried to come up with ways to make it easier and more fun. One thing we did was MM, or Minimum Maintenance. We would spend 5 minutes in each room, clean as much as possible, and move on to the next room. We used a timer. We raced. We laughed. It was over quickly.
I am going to go back to this today. My house has been fairly organized lately and today I need to simply do a quick pick up and sweep. I wonder if it will still be as fun without my mom or brother here to help. Perhaps I should invite mom over?
We also used to gamble with M&M's when we played canasta.

I am Back!
Week of 52, Day of 6Days to next Tea , Days to next dinner
I am back and I am raring to go! Above you see my typical format from previous challenges. I love the title that I picked for this blog because it describes me perfectly! The reason I have left the above format is because I, once again, as is my habit, want to tackle the impractical. I want to try this again. Perhaps, just perhaps, I can accomplish the impossible. The reason I have not filled in the gaps above is because I am not totally convinced that I want to tack the same old impractical. Why not come up with something new and impractical? What a great idea!
So this is me, coming back to the world of blogging. Letting the writer in me giggle as I tickle its fancy, and the fanciful in me to stretch and yawn and say, "its about time!"
