Strawberry Picking, Killer Otters and a New Hobby

Gotta love Tuesdays. It's an opportunity to take all the fragments in you mind and put them together in completely random order to create a post. All the cool kids do it. Give it a try. Then go over to The Un Mom to link up and read more random from the other cool kids.

Why when I go shopping somewhere like Target I see a barcode scanner everywhere I look until I have a product that I want to check the price on and then they all seem to have disappeared? Is it just me? Why can't they just put a price on everything?

I want to go strawberry picking and make my own preserves this year. Anyone got a recipe? Puddin Pop also thinks we should make some Strawberry wine. She remembers how fun it was to stomp the grapes last year and would like to do it again "with her feet." I think we'll wait for the grapes.

American Idol is getting to the end. I really (now) want Lee to win. Love the sound of his voice and I could look at him all day.

Puddin Pop was having nightmares about killer-out-of-water otters attacking her in her room. I couldn't figure out where the otters were coming from. She said "from Barbie Rapunzel." Gothel has an animal around her neck named Otto and PP figured it was an otter. I'll admit I had to google "Barbie Rapunzel" to find out what it was. It's a ferret. We took her to the pet store to see and pet a ferret. She also isn't watching the movie right now. The nightmares have stopped.

I think I may have found a new hobby. This is pretty cool. I stole it from here.

I'm pretty sure it would take me a lot longer to get it to something I was happy with but it would be really neat as part of a Holiday table setting. I'll shoot for Thanksgiving. That should give me enough time.

I'm out of random. What do you have?

I'm looking for a good strawberry preserves recipe too, all I have is one for freezer jam, and a freezer that is too small.

That wine glass looks really neat. But I don't think I'd have the patience for it. Good luck with it!

I love Target. I think that is there only shortcoming. Clear price labels, people!

Killer otters sound scary. Heck. Even ferrets are just the teensiest bit frightening. The pointy face, the weasely eyes. They'll go right for your jugular every time.

Happy RTT.

The Joy Of Cooking has the best strawberry preserve recipe. Easy and very delicious.

I had to google Barbie Rapunzel too - never heard of that one. I'm going to have nightmares too - but about women with 36/24/36 measurements taking over the world.

The wine glasses look like a great girlfriend get together project - I wonder if you can wrap them while they are full? Something for the to do list.

Happy RTT.
