this is just to say

I fell in love with this poem 
by William Carlos Williams (quite a name right?!)
my first semester at BYU
we read it in my American Literature class
and i knew i wanted it in my kitchen

we just spent the last of the wedding money 
on ink for the printer the other day
which on that subject 
the ink was $55 
and we couldve bought a brand new printer for that much

but thus voila, i give you my poem in my kitchen


let me read that small font for you:
"This Is Just to Say 

I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox

and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast

Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold"


I just think it is one of the best poems ever 
and makes the best wall hanging for a kitchen

but maybe thats the English teacher in me
haha or maybe i am just weird

'modge' podge


i have had these letters for a while now
it has been my plan the entire time to recover them
so they could look cute on my bookshelf

i think they are okay 
i might re do them again

but it was just the wooden letters i found at the DI/thrift store
and then i put fun paper on them

so bobby and i went michaels and we each picked out a paper for our letter
it was funny because after they were done 
bobby asked why his had flowers on it 

he picked it out
its not my fault he doesnt like to shop and look around haha
so that is why his has flowers

and then when we went to walmart to get supplies
i stated that i needed 'modge podge'

of course bobby is a boy 
and said wtf is 'modge podge'
and then he asked how do you even spell that
and i told him t-h-a-t... jk bad joke

well he brought me to a sad realization that it is 'mod podge'

so now im with bobby and ask 
what is the world does 'mod podge' mean haha
