Lincoln is now the proud owner of a corral. I should probably say I am the proud owner of a corral. For those of you who think I'm referring to something for horses, let me explain. It's a contraption where several baby gates are connected to make a secure play area. I think it is also called a play yard. It is great! Lincoln is still not sold on it, but I am!!!

TLC (the learning channel) runs these commercials called "life lessons." I had my own lesson last night. I went into the kitchen to make a snack. I noticed that I had some bread, so I decided to make a peanut butter sandwich. When I reached in the bag to grab a piece, I noticed that it felt different. I pulled the bread out, and it was GREEN! The lesson is, if you've had a loaf of bread for a while, you should examine it in the bag before reaching your hand in.
