"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

Once Upon a Time...

Once Upon a Time, I bought a package of Miniature Reese's Peanut Butter Cups to make some Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcakes.

Then, I ate too many of the Reese's Peanut Butter Cups before I could make the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcakes...

So, now I cannot make them.

Once Upon a Time, GQ ate three sandwiches and 6 graham crackers for dinner.

The next day, at Church, all of this exploded out of him, his diaper, and his clothes.

So, GQ went to the rest of Church wearing a sweatshirt and M's tights.

When his sweatshirt unzipped, he looked just like Baryshnikov.

Once Upon a Time, E sat in the tubby and intoned:

"I own almost everything. I own almost everything. I own almost everything."

Then, she asked M to give her something.

the end.

I must say that you are very witty! And I'm sure that eating all of those reese's cups was worth not being able to make the cup cakes! At least, I think it would be...now you just have to buy more.
