My Way
I am so guilty of having a particular way of doing things and confusing my way with the right way as if how I wash dishes were the only way to wash dishes. The object of course is to have germ free dishes to put in the cabinet, grease free and ready to use again.…

We went to the county fair yesterday. It had more rides than we expected and less booths. Not that this areas is lacking in vendors, or talented artisans, or innovative people looking to gain attention, but either they weren’t invited to participate or a booth was overpriced.
