So, in the words of the WWI slogan, I&#8217;ll knit my bit.<br \/>\n<br clear=all><br \/>\nBoo&#8217;s first day of second grade went reasonably well, although she refused to eat any lunch.  This has been a recurring problem.  I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s that her sandwich gets smushed in the baggie or that it&#8217;s so incredibly loud and overwhelming that she just can&#8217;t think about eating.  Lord knows the times I&#8217;ve visited the cafeteria it&#8217;s been utter chaos.  I&#8217;m going to get her a hard-sided case for her sandwich.  Also, her teacher wrote me with a suggestion today, that since she has &#8216;resource center&#8217; right after lunch, she can snack there if she doesn&#8217;t eat any lunch.  Her resource teacher is fine with this.<\/p>\n<p>I read somewhere recently that one of life&#8217;s little pleasures is to use a knife to carve your initials into the top of a fresh jar of peanut butter before you use it.  I&#8217;d never heard of this before, but sure enough, it does bring a smile to my face.  Is this a strange little quirk, or one of those things I&#8217;m the last to know?  Do you play with your food too?  Regardless, I share my little moment of day-brightening with you, in hopes that you&#8217;ll smile too.<br \/>\n<center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tvini.org\/images\/misc\/peanutbutter.jpg\" \/ border=\"2\"><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the list of things I thought I&#8217;d never say, &#8220;I&#8217;m knitting a golf club cozy&#8221; ranks up there with &#8220;I&#8217;m voting Bush.&#8221; Nonetheless, I&#8217;m knitting a golf club cozy.
