Lovely rainbows.  Some years ago, I started looking for the double in every rainbow picture.  If the main one is near the center of the image, the double is always visible.  It can be seen in all three of yours, Kim.  Great pics. :)</p>
<p><b>(kim on

You're right... I can just barely see it, but it's there. I hadn't notice that. :)</p>

Cute.  Hope that's all he's doing ... or that plant's growth may accelerate. :)</p>

haha we had a few of those at work but management wouldn't allow them! pfffft :shake</p>

@boogaboo Spoil sports! lol

@k-sue I woulda thought only in Texas, but Boog says they have them in Canada, too! heh</p>
<p><b>(boogaboo on

They weren't exactly like that, they didn't have the ribbon thing around them. And I'm pretty sure that what it says on the front wasn't the same either. However we did have them floating around, and management said they were not certified "safety wise" so none of us were allowed to wear them.

The shape is exactly like the ones we had tho, so I am thinking it's from the same company wherever that may be

I've had a hamburger with a fried egg on top.  My brother-in-law's restaurant serves one.  It's great but my cholesterol-conciousness, which I hardly pay any attention to, sometimes won't allow me to order it. :P</p>
<p><b>(kim on 
Nov  1, 2008 10:09 AM)</b> 

I think I read about that burger on your blog before. I think I saw one at the Hometown Tales podcast message board, too. Does it really add something to the flavor? With the egg on the pizza, it didn't add much and tasted conflicting.</p>

my office window faces west and i get to see some awesome midwest sunsets in the winter.  about the only perk of working late on cold, blustery days.
