God Be With You

The book that I am currently reading ("The Christmas Sweater" : see 11/30 Picture of the Day) introduced me to an old hymn that was new to me. Maybe I've sung it before at Harmony or Delavan Baptist -- just don't remember it. God be with you till we meet again, By His counsels guide, uphold you, With His sheep securely fold you, God be with you till we meet again. Refrain: Till we meet, till we meet, Till we meet at Jesus’ feet; Till we meet, till we meet, God be with you till we meet again. God be with you till we meet again, ’Neath His wings securely hide you, Daily manna still provide you, God be with you till we meet again. God be with you till we meet again, When life’s perils thick confound you, Put His arms unfailing round you, God be with you till we meet again.

Picture 12/22: Honeycomb Knockoff

December 22 (picture 356 of 365) Growing up, we ate a lot of cereal. Cheerios, Rice Krispies, Chex, Raisin Bran, Bran Flakes, Corn Flakes, Wheaties. That type of stuff. The ones with not a lot of sugar. We did get to eat Honeycomb frequently, which was one of my favorites. As an adult, I have learned that Honeycomb is freakin' expensive. However, Sav-a-Lot has saved the day: What a stupid name. But the cereal inside the box with the stupid name is delicious. Long live Honeycomb..... I mean Hoot'n Honey!! Out for now..... Matt

Picture 5/30: Tomato Receipt

May 30 (year 4, picture 150) The lovely Mrs. Honnold and I ran errands today, including a run for groceries at Wallyworld. Boy, how nice would it be for all grocery bills to be this size? Let me explain....... Our first trip thru the check-out lane was $266. We got to the van and realized that we had purchased no T for our BLTs. Thus, I had to run back in for the missing piece of fruit. Out for now........
