...i'm a person of faith...
...take things at face value...
...and expect the same from others...
...is that expecting too much?!
i got this BOX at a yard sale...
...for two bucks!
...i had a bargain...
...i stored it in the garage cupboard...
...for two summers...
...this week i wanted to make apple crisp...
...sooo...
...i retrieved the BOX...
...opened it with great expectation to do quick work of peeling apples...
...the BOX says on the outside...
- recipe & instruction booklet inside -
...i'm a sucker for recipes...
...though i don't like to spend much time in the kitchen..
...i know - it's a paradox!
...instead of a peeler...
...i got this!
...someone's christmas present -
...from uncle Bill and aunt Esther!
...two pair of ear rings...
...one monkey sling shot...
...one lb of homemade taffy that was rock-hard!
...let me tell you - my first reaction was -
...a tad miffed...
...and disappointed...
...i was a sucker for that one!
...guess i deserved it for not opening the box at the yard sale...
...but like i said...
...i'm a person of faith!
