Just for Fun ~


The Secret of a Long Life . . .

Bless her little heart . . . how sweet . . . the secret to long life . . . this has been around, but it still warms the cockles of my heart . . .

 

A doctor on his morning walk, noticed the old lady pictured above:
She was sitting on her front step smoking a cigar, so he walked up to her and said,
“I couldn’t help but notice how happy you look! What is your secret?”
“I smoke ten cigars a day,” she said. “Before I go to bed, I smoke a nice big joint.
Apart from that, I drink a whole bottle of Jack Daniels every week, and eat only junk food.
On weekends, I pop pills, have sex, and I don’t exercise at all.
“That is absolutely amazing! How old are you?”
“Forty,” she replied.


And just for fun, I'm giving away these olive and pickle forks I've made.  Leave a comment on this post or drop me an email with give-away in the subject line.  I'll pick a winner at the end of the week.  Not exactly sure when because it's going to be another busy week :(   My only "rule" is that the winner will need to contact me within 3 days.   



Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)
Lauren

I never saw that woman! LOL! Love your creations but I avoid entertaining as much as humanly possible. I could use them to poke someone though. Best not include me.

Dat Phoney!! What a way to go! The little forks are
soooo cute. Just got back from Asheville to see the
Downton Exhibit at the Biltmore Estate. It was very
nicely done. It will be in 7 more places in the States.

Oh I do love your post. I use to live next door to an old man who took a shot of whiskey with breakfast lunch and dinner he called it his heart medicine.
I have won before so don't put me in but I am sure going to have to buy them from you.

Love all your silver garden markers and just about everything you do. However since I was lucky recently, don't include me in this giveaway. I just enjoy reading your blog.
