My west coast brother informed me that today is "Columbus Day" and "Indigenous Peoples Day" which you probably knew and have already celebrated in your own ways. What you might not have known is that today is also "National M&M Day" and "Silly Sayings Day."
I'm not sure why it's M&M Day, singular, when I've never know anyone to eat only one. Maybe you're supposed to focus on your favorite color of candy shell coating. I like blue.
I decided, after some consideration, that I would focus this blog on silly sayings instead of candy - fewer calories. So here are some of my favorites. You may notice that several of these have farm themes. I readily admit that I grew up in the country.
..;..slow as molasses in January...
....like herding cats...
or one I just heard ..... like wrangling cats in a rat convention...
....wait 'til the cows come home...
.....when pigs fly....
.....when your chickens come home to roost....
Have an M&M...
...famous last words...
This looks like it should be easy.
That last one refers to this 1000 piece puzzle which my spouse and I just finished. It wasn't.
