bubbles....

I can't believe it has been a week since I wrote last.

That is just way to long.

I have been working nonstop for the last 

10 days and finally am taking a late

morning to get a little sleep and blog.

It is Wednesday and that means it's 

"Advice" day and I wanted some

fun advice since I haven't had much time

to have fun in the last 10 days.

I found some good ol' 1923 advice

to having fun that really has lasted the 

age of time.

You don't have to be a kid to enjoy this,

you just have to be a bit of a kid at heart.

Sometimes the simplest things can be the most fun.

Glycerin Soap  Bubbles

"Having two small sisters, I am often called on,

in case of their illness, to help entertain them.

And I have at last found a sure way of keeping them

contented and happy when they are well enough to permit it.

I place a woolen blanket on top of the bed coverings

and provide each child with a clay pipe.

Then I prepare a cupful of real soapsuds,

adding to it a small amount of glycerin.

The children can blow bubbles to their 

hearts content, and the glycerin makes the bubbles

tough so that they settle on the blankets and 

often remain four or five minutes before breaking."

Let's hear it for finding the joy and fun

in the simplest of things.
