The Customary Sniff

I just completed the customary sniff. You-know-the-one-where you hold a wash cloth that could contain an unpleasant odor, between your forefinger and thumb, with the remaining three fingers fanned away as to not acquire the possible stench. You exhale, but only slightly, because the likelihood of inhaling an unwanted odor. You draw the suspected stench laden washcloth up to your nose, and sniff briefly, pulling the washcloth away immediately. Then wait for the overwhelming indication that the washcloth needed to be laundered, yesterday. Luckily for me, this ONE time, I actually avoided the toe curling nastiness that normally accompanies the customary sniff. So I ask, is there anyone else, out there, who chooses to stimulate their nose hair by performing this task?

Caption Challenge

I love to scrapbook and to make my own cards, some even call me “crafty”. If I had a little more confidence I would create hand made home decorations to hang around the house, that is if I were allowed to “poke holes in the walls,” but I digress. When scrap booking I normally have an idea in mind long before I begin a page, but every once in a while I come across a photo or two that I want to scrap, and can’t figure out what to do. So I am soliciting the advice of my faithful few (and possible a few “lurkers”) who I know are full of creativity; to help me come up with captions to some great photos. I get to be the judge and all decisions are final. There may not always be a winner, but if one is chosen, their idea will be scraped and posted here, and the winner will receive a box of handmade cards.

Here is the first installment of Caption Challenge…
