What's for Dinner

In a couple of hours I'm closing the shop and will drive home and make tacos. Maybe, if Sweet Wife is lucky, I'll also whip up a mess of refried beans.

Ya'll come on over and join us.

I Want

This little baby, just because.

It's a USFA M4-410. All steel, six shot.

The details can be found here.

The Next Depression

It isn't often, or I should say extremely rare for me to link a news article - but you should read this.

You decide.

It's The Little Things

Our weather has turned cool with a fairly stiff breeze. Nice.

On our ride to school this morning, Little Bit, all happy and filled with song, said, "Papa."

"What, Sweetheart?"

"I want you to promise me something." Uh-oh...

"Honey, it's hard for Papa to make a promise when I've yet to hear what you want me to promise."

She thinks about it for a moment or two. A few cars zoom pass. I count my usual morning flight of geese, 6, then she turns back to me and, "Papa, really, I promise to give you the biggest wet kisses, and I promise to hug you all hard as possible, and really, Papa, I won't forget to wave goodbye this morning if you'll only buy me a Caramel Hot Chocolate this morning at McDonald's."

I did as requested. She fulfilled her promises too.

I mean, whom among us could refuse big wet kisses from their grandchild....
