Home-Made Humor

My darling boyfriend, Luke, and I were having a conversation that offend comes up.  It's regarding my favorite mexican restaurant which is Old Mexico in Berryville.  It is the only mexican food I can ever remember eating when I grew up.  That could be the reason why I feel it is the only authentic restaurant close to home.  But this is similar to how our conversation went:

Every time I go I end up gorging myself and carrying on about it's deliciousness.

Luke replies - I don't know why you like this place so much.  It taste like every other mexican place i've been.

Trying not to be offended I say - But everything here is HOME-MADE! Even the chips! They didn't just open a bag of chips in the back and pour them in this basket.  They are sliced tortillas and toasted in the oven to golden brown perfection.

Luke - They aren't home-made Mattie....I can see them making them in the back right now.

Mattie - .................. (speech less with my head tilted looking at him like a confused puppy)

Then I realized Lukey Dukey was taking the meaning of HOME-MADE too literarily.  In his head he must have been thinking that would be a lot of trips back and forth from Pedros kitchen to Old Mexico. Ohhh he cracks me up.  I tried to refrain from heavy laughter, I was so full it hurt too.

Mitt Romney for president!!!

Just wanted to show my support for Mitt!  He is the only one who knows how to get america out of this mess.   He has my vote! 

Feels like spring!

The weather has been so wonderful lately!  It puts me in a really good mood.  All I can think about is buying a swim suit and wake boarding.  I got Luke two tickets to a josh abbot concert for valentines day.  It was a blast, plus my good friend Jaime was there!  He danced me around so much I had blisters on my pinky toes the next day.  Oh yes...my Lukey... I can't resist his Resistol.  His birthday was Friday!  Happy Birthday to you doll!

Hike to Sweeden Creek Falls and Hawksbill Crag

My cousin Jason was back home for a little while so we decided to go for a hike in Boxely, AR.  It was a beautiful day, perfect for some refreshing time in nature.  The city seemed to be getting to the both of us so this was the ideal adventure.  Although I the last mile of our 6 mile hike was almost to much for me.  I guess the choice of muck boots was not to smart...needless to say I was sore for the next two days.

Thanks for going with me Jason!
