Hey Suga Suga....

Well I am wrapping up 
my first week
back at school.
I am tired.

Mentally and physically.

I teach high school English.
You've got to be on your toes 
to keep up with a 
classroom of 25 teenagers!

It wears me out, but keeps me young.
Does that make sense?

BUT 
to make up for my lack of posts
for the past week,
I searched my files and I found this picture.

Granted, it is not the best pic.
Granted, it is not staged.

BUT 
it is a great idea.

I was hosting a western dinner
in a barn.
I brought along my 
sugar mold.
Originally I was going to put 
candles in the holes.

Then it hit me.

What a great idea to hold
all the (plastic!!!) silverware
(let me interject here in my English teacher voice that 
plastic silverware is an oxymoron!!!!)

Nevertheless...
it worked out perfectly.
I have since used it to hold
silver silverware
and it worked equally as well.

Although, 
just like I said at the beginning,
there is no staged picture for that either!

Just use your imagination.
And your sugar mold.
Get one if you don't have one.

OK, I am off to make 
lesson plans,
blogposts....
and plans for the weekend!
