Warning...

I thought I would share this because it literally made me laugh out loud. Just a little pearl of wisdom from my "Honest Tea" bottle cap...

Those who get too big for their britches will be exposed in the end.

Jen's Favorite Things

If you know me, then you know I pretty much adore anything that is wholesome and even corny in nature. Of course, this extends to all things Disney, made-for-TV teenybopper romantic comedies, and musicals. I love the movie "Sound of Music." (If you haven't seen it, run, do not walk, to you nearest video store or video pirating site and watch it. You will not be sorry). This was the movie of choice to watch on long car trips in my family.

In the movie, Julie Andrews is a governess who sings a song called "My Favorite Things" to the children during a bad thunderstorm.

Well, last night and this morning, the weather was absolutely horrendous here (e.g. my parent's chimney got struck by lightning and part of it fell in our pool)! In honor of thunderstorms and yucky weather, here is my own (obviously quite lovely) version to be sung to the tune of "My Favorite Things."

Jen's Fav Things

Flowers on headbands and a corny joke

DVRs, Republicans and cane-sugar Coke

Monograms on just about anything

These are a few of my favorite things

Burnt-orange longhorns and Jackie-O pearls

Audrey and Hitchcock and dancing with my girls
Sunshine with rain and the rainbows it brings

These are a few of my favorite things

Clean-shaven boys with cute, dimpled smiles

Color-coordination and organized, tabbed files

Windows rolled down as Taylor Swift sings

These are a few of my favorite things

When the test lurks

When the water murks

When I'm feeling sad

I simply remember my favorite things

And then I don't feel so bad!
