They say that the reason certain smells can stir up old memories is because the "smelling parts" of our brain are sitting right next to the "memory parts." Today at work, it was not a smell that brought back vivid images of grade school, it was an act of kindness. You see, I have many allergies that require lots of ingredient reading when I shop for groceries. However, every once in a while I just "ASSUME" something looks safe enough to eat. Well, you know what happens when you ASSUME (so I won't tell you). Anyway, after preparing a Lean Cuisine for lunch, I quickly noticed that there were nuts in it. I mean, really, who puts nuts on butternut squash ravioli? Apparently Lean Cuisine, so now my lunch will only consist of an Activia yogurt, which also contains questionable allergens like strawberries. As I pulled out my spoon to eat my sad lunch, a friend from across the table offered to give me her lunch so I could eat. I admit I DO love penne in cream sauce....so what happened next brought back floods of Catholic school memories. My friend and I traded lunches. Yes, we actually switched lunches so I could eat and she could enjoy the plethora of veggies that came with my nutty lunch. (she had been eye-ing those veggies since I opened the package) It was a win-win situation and it made me feel young again :)
In honor of "feeling young," I have found some old digital images that I don't remember making, but are just plain silly. K and I had begun dating and we must've found some program that allowed you to insert faces. When I found these pics, I laughed so hard.... Enjoy.
I don't want to feel your groove...feel it yourself!
