In the mood

In the mood.Yes I am.Not for love not for romance not for excitement.

I'm in the mood for.... beans.

That's right beans.A big bowl of beans.

Don't matter what kind.

Pintos,big white butter beans,speckled butter beans,navy beans,9 bean soup.

Just soupy beans and a pan of hot corn bread and a big onion.

Keep your steamed carrots,cauliflower and that awful broccoli.

I need BEANS.






















Lived to tell about it

I played in the street.
Smoked cigarettes.
Chewed tobacco.
Dipped snuff.
Rode in cars with no seat belts or air bags or baby seats.
Hugged dogs.
Kissed cats.
Had a pet monkey named Jim and a duck from Farmers Supply.
Black eyes broke teeth and my share of skinned knees.
Got switchings and even cut my own switch.
Had a BB gun and knew how to use it.
Been in a few rock throwing  battles .
Hands have been dirty my feet rusty and I played in the dirt.
Swam in mud holes shared by snakes.
Long trips in cars with windows up with people smoking those Camels.
Camped out slept in tree houses and drinked water from creeks.
Yes these are some of the things I did as a kid .Bet you did also and we lived to tell about it.
