I'm always amazed by how good you are at putting so much into so little. So good at words!

I’m a strange duck, I prefer Aunt Jemima syrup to Maple Syrup. I guess that makes me a bit unCanadian. Thanks for your visits Maureen.

Ha ha, I like it. Some people are pancake thinkers, a bit soft in the head and everything comes out flat.

...and definitely need syrup to be able to swallow ;), mmmm, maple syrup. I'm actually lucky enough to live a short walk away from a sugar bush. Sweet hugs! xomo

is that why my Graveyard shift (digging graves) had the advisory: dig just 6 ]feet?

Maureen Mcgreavy
Date: 4/25/2020 7:24:00 AM

I actually looked that up! London, 1665, they thought that burying plague victims 6' under would stop/slow the spread. We're going to need a bigger hole... ;),
