Oh My! I've Been Hugged By A Bear!

April 28, 2012

Good afternoon everyone.  According to the TV, it's only 49 degrees outside, but I just came in and I think it's a perfectly lovely day.  The sun is shining, and the temperature is just right for doing things in the yard. 

This morning I went to Stop & Shop with Deanne.  All the Marie Callenders and the Healthy Choice meals were on sale so I decided to stock up my freezer.   I got a lot of extra gas points plus the regular points, and gave these to Deanne.  Between us, we saved her $1.20 off per gallon on her next fillup.  I call that a bargain!

Just as we were nearing the register to check out, we spotted a very large, smiling and waving white bear.  You know me, I'm nosy and I love these characters.  When we got closer, we found it was a "Bimbo Soft White Bread" bear.  Of course I had to shake hands with the bear.  Even better I got a hug and Deanne took our picture.  We each got a free loaf of bread, and activity bags for the great grandchildren.  I'll post the photo when Deanne has a chance to send it to me.

Have you seen the latest Lowes' ad?  They show a pair of cardinals putting additions on to their birdhouse.  It's such an adorable and enjoyable ad.  I find it refreshing considering that at least half of the ads on TV are aimed at brainless mannequins. 

Today's photo was taken one evening while I was at work.  I spotted a couple of deer way in the back of the field across the street and tried to get some photos. 


I need to get out and find new places to take photos.  Maybe Janet or Eddie will come with me one of these days.  It's no fun going out alone.  I'll have to Google the area to see what new places we could try. 

Now I want to put in a load of wash, and maybe catch a little nap afterewards.  Tonight's a work night and I like to be bright eyed and bushy tailed when I go to work.  (Now that's a very old saying!)
Till tomorrow, Y'all have a fabulous day.

Hugs, Edna B.

I would have liked to see the photo of you hugging the white bear, but the deer were lovely also.
