breakfast butz

Since northern Delaware in functionally considered a suburb of Philly, football season has brought new Eagles cereal to our local Acme grocery stores. Unfortunately the all-caps font they chose for the box makes the title a bit ambiguous looking. I couldn't help snickering to myself like a middle-schooler for a few minutes after I finally figured out that it was supposed to be "Breakfast Blitz." Finding a pic was more difficult than I had the time/energy for, so here's the Fox Philly news clip

Is it just me? ;) I think not.

still alive....

Yes, world, I'm still here! The busyness/travel/lack of routine of the summertime morphed into a molehill-turned-mountain of pictures and adventures, and the thought of blogging, even when the free time presented itself, felt overwhelming. Then I remembered....this is not graded. Ha! There still lurks a little bit of 'if you can't do it thoroughly and well, don't even attempt it' bit of twisted perfectionist in me that comes out in the strangest ways sometimes. So...pictures are on Facebook, traveling and visiting with dear friends and family was marvelous, and we are now back in the comfortable routine of fall - complete with cooler weather and much raking (stupid tree next door).

My friend Jennifer had a funny online experiment on her blog, and I've decided to give it a go. Here are her instructions: Go to Google, search for "(insert your name) needs," and then laugh at the hilarious things that come up. Read below to enjoy some of the things that I apparently need:

1. Erin needs another miracle.
2. Erin needs to wear shirts that have straps. (uhhh...think I got that one covered. (no pun intended!)
3. Erin needs another cable access show.
4. Erin needs a Harley.
5. Erin needs a friend.
6. Erin needs a liver transplant.
7. Erin needs advice.
8. Erin needs your prayers!
9. Erin needs to do the dishes.
10. Erin needs a place to live.
11. Erin needs a makeover.
11. Erin need help.
12. Erin needs some posse love and support.
13. Erin needs some of her own medicine.
14. Erin needs a nap. (always!)

Some of these are definitely true, others, thankfully not. Let me know what your name turns up!
