Everyone knows I have always loved books and they know I love Mrs. Allen's. Anybody that knows me knows this. I have always liked magazines too. At a very young age I would say 13 but don't remember for sure I was reading True Story, True Confessions and True Love. I found a True Story back in April at a store and I hadn't seen one of those in ages. I didn't know they still had those. They cost a lot more than they did back then of course.
A few years later I was buying Sweet Sixteen, Seventeen and Teen. I read all those magazines faithfully as a teenager. Then in my twenties I started reading Good Housekeeping and Redbook. I still read True Story too.
The other day I looked on my ottoman though where I keep all the books I haven't read yet. I got a stack starting in March that I haven't read. Looking thru them I have Redbook, Good housekeeping, Oprah, Woman's Day,HGTV, Mc Call's and several others. Why can't I get to these books I have always loved? I am going to start looking thru at least three a day until I catch up on all of this. This cannot happen.
Tomorrow I plan on taking about five or six with me. We are going on a road trip and going by Sweetwater and eating at Mrs. Allen's . I can't wait! I love Mrs. Allen's famous potato salad. And I will be killing two birds with one stone. Actually three. Read some of my books, eat potato salad and see some friends maybe.
There is going to be an author there too from here and I read all her books. Most people from Sweetwater wont know her and I won't name names. She sent me a message the other day asking about Mrs. Allen's because she had heard of me talking about it. I hope she enjoys it as much as I will. Kind of weird we are going the same day. When she ask me about Mrs. Allen's the other day I had no plans to go. But it happened.....
