Happy St. Patrick's Day!

In honor of St. Patrick's Day, I'm writing this post in green text color. Of course, I'm not sure how it is going to show up on the blue background on my blog...probably will just look black.

Nothing too exciting going on here. I spent Sunday cleaning out the freezer. It is done, but I still have to work on the fridge side some more. However, at least the fridge side doesn't have a colony of "sesame seeds" living in it. Those stupid little bugs crawled into every little space and crevice that there is in the freezer. The stupid things don't come off very easily either. I had to use a toothpick to flick them off of the shelves before I could run them through the dishwasher. There are a couple of the bugs that I just couldn't get to...and were still attached after the run through the dishwasher. S told me that I would just have to let it go and live with the fact that they are in my freezer. I guess I will, but still...yuck!

My brother did call me with a good suggestion on how to clean the freezer without gagging. He told me to put Vick's VapoRub in my nose. He has had to pick up a few dead bodies that were past ripe, and this is what they use to keep from smelling the odor (he's a part time EMT). Sure enough, the trick worked. Of course, it says right on the jar of Vick's to not put into your nostrils. Heck, it worked, and I'm still alive without any side effects of having it in my nose. So if you ever need to go near a refrigerator or freezer that has went out (or a dead body), stick some Vick's VapoRub up your nose first.

Today, besides working on the fridge, I need to pick up the rest of the house. My aunt and cousin get in very late Friday night/Saturday morning, so I have to get ready for their visit. Yesterday, I also got the Easter decorations out. Now, I need to figure out what to do for Easter dinner. I was going to make chicken, but my stomach is still turning at the mention of the word chicken. In fact, when I was in the grocery store this weekend, I almost lost it when walking past the freezer with the frozen chicken in it. The sad thing is that chicken is our main meat here, so I need to find a way to quickly get over this experience.

Well, I guess I should go look to see if any leprechauns left any pots of gold around my house. This is very possible with the messy state that it is in right now. I could be rich and not even know it! So, Happy St. Patty's Day to everyone! Don't forget to wear your green!

P.S. Happy Birthday to TB!
