2021 in Quotes


When our 16 year old beagle died during lockdown, I tried to write a post about her. I mean I did write it, technically, but I never finished it.  Then I didn't want to come back to the blog because it wasn't finished and I couldn't finish it. So I wrote nothing for over a year, but now I'm back with my list of quotes that the adults in our family have said out loud in 2021. 


  • If a restaurant has a jackelope that's usually a clue that it's not fancy. 
  • We're not avenging anyone today.

  • Please stop burping on my back.

  • I don't think people will pay for cow bones.
