Simple Sing-Song Sayings

 (These are to be read quickly, and with a strong dactylic emphasis. :) Just for fun...

Certainly turning the clock would collect a return on the time we have spent.
Possibly proving the proof in the pudding would lead to relieving the lie.
Nothing but noting the knot you have tied can unravel the reasons behind.
Anything ending in infinite bliss is suspect, be it fiction or fact.
Lonely the lord and the lowly have been, though embraced by a bevy of friends.
Simply imply that the thoughtless is wise and he'll thank you and think you're all right.

Feel free to write some of your own in the comment section!

A day in the life:

Last night I dreamt that I was shopping for yogurt in- and out-of my underwear. I was so excited, because apparently Yoplait had had a flavor contest, and I could buy all the winning flavors for the first time! Strangely, they were all vegetable-based, but the only one I can remember had to do with red pepper and feta. Anyhow, today at work I was gifted with 1/4 bottle of Cappuccino-flavored Kefir (a yogurt-like probiotic liquid), and a Greek yogurt! In addition to the other Greek yogurt I had already brought for lunch. I finished the Kefir, and ate both yogurts for lunch, since none of the other food I had on-hand sounded appetizing. I have prophetic dreams! 

In other news, I also dreamt last night that I believed I was pregnant, and had been telling everyone this for 8 months, when I realized that I had ZERO baby-bump whatsoever. "Whoops, never mind, I was wrong," I told everybody, when OUT POPPED A BABY! Whoo, I was right all along! Just a physical anomaly. And THAT, my friends, is not a prophetic dream, so...the only conclusion to be drawn from all this nonsense is that I really like yogurt.  

Finally, I will provide pictures later, but I have been tackling the monster that is macarons. Three batches=three entire evenings this week devoted to the project. Has anyone out there tried making these before, and if so, do you have any solution to the Giant Air Pocket problem?? I made one tray that turned out near-perfectly, but other than that...failures. There is some strange chemistry that goes on with egg whites/meringue, and I am not privy to that knowledge/understanding. HELP!
