ReplyDeleteI like that term, 'hangry.' I'm not a fun person to be around when I've skipped a meal. Yikes!
Just yesterday the three of us were in the car listening to 104.1 (The Fish). There was an ad for Portland Rescue Mission. On it was a testimonial from a homeless man who hadn't eaten for 5 days, and was so grateful for the meal PRM provided. It was heart warming, but my reaction was to turn to Brent and say, "If I hadn't eaten for 5 days, I'd be a huge bitch!" He just chuckled in agreement. Brent knows how hangry I get.
Ooooh, they're pretty!!!! Go Matt!
