It is the last week of April, and we have been having April showers, but we haven’t yet today. Looks like we will be celebrating another family birthday in quarantine. My husband’s is on Sunday, May 3rd. Think we will go out …. to the back porch! Perhaps if its a nice day, we can have a campfire in the evening. Roast some S’mores. Yum, right? What can be a better combination than graham crackers, golden brown marshmallows and a chocolate bar? Brings smiles to my taste buds. Enjoy the following quotes, and may they bring smiles to your heart!

Ha Ha! I knew it! When I chose that quote, I guessed that you would make a comment about it “burning your eyes” . Then I saw that you chose the one about love and wind and I was like, Oh, I was wrong, but…. LOL! Nope, I wasn’t! 🙂

Love resembles the wind…. Let me see if I can strain that metaphor.
If it is too strong it can cause serious damage.
You can harness it and produce electricity?
It is a product of severe storms.

to quote Willie Nelson (Graceland)
And she said, “losin’ love

I am a Willie Nelson fan, which is actually a legal obligation in Austin. That song kind of resonated with me when I was getting divorced way back when, so I remember it well.

I do like the words so you may have made me curious enough to look it up and listen to it now. I can see how those lyrics would have resonated with you during a divorce. Sorry you had to go through that. My friend went through a divorce a couple years ago, hard times, but she really is much better off.
I may not be a fan of his music, so I guess I am not moving to Austin, but he does have some good songs. My favorite of his is his version of an Elvis Presley song. You Are Always on my Mind.
LikeLike
He and Elvis sang a lot of the same songs. I always preferred the Willie versions as I like his voice better. But I like Elvis as well.
The divorce is remote enough in the past now that it all mostly seems funny now, though I don’t recommend it. And I get to listen to some of my favorite songs again.

I can’t think of Elvis without thinking of his “Love me Tender” song. I was 17 or 18years old and a Camp Counselor over the summer. The song was dedicated and sung to me in a talent show. No, it wasn’t performed by a staff member. It was by a camper! No, the staff did NOT forget it!

I just don’t like marshmallows, the stickiness or the pure sugar. So, I guess graham crackers and and melty chocolate for me.
