A Shamrock Kind Of Sunday To You And A Little Limerick

There once was a Nana named Diana,
That had a grandgirl named Anna,
To honor the sweet miss,
She set up a dish,
But forgot to put out the banana.

Ah-yes---I might have neglected to get a
BANANA
but I did remember to make 
SHAMROCK COOKIES!
they are the blob to the left on the plate
Bet you want to see more of that
cute little table,
don't you?

Well, that is not gonna happen today.
I do, however, have another 
LITTLE LIMERICK 
for you.

MyHero said- Let's go for a ride,
We'll rent a room-it'll be exciting inside,
So I said, Yes, with a grin,
but found much to my chagrin,
He had forgotten the TV guide.
Welcome to MY EXCITING life..

Have a wonderful EXCITING Sunday!
Hope you remembered to set your clock ahead.

    My first chuckle of the earlier-than-usual morning! :-) Love those plates... and cookies... and limericks! Thanks to you, my brain will be busy making limericks all day. I hope it takes a break while I'm in church this morning. Lol

    oh Diana, you are such a hoot!!!!!!! what more can I say????? -loud, belly chuckle-

    (from your comment on my blog).... now as to liking the "longer" summer evenings.... (with DST) those long summer evenings are always there, my Dear! the sun rises, is over head, goes down, and sets..... according to the sun's "time".... all 365 days of the year. so the long summer evenings are always there. to enjoy. to be so happy about. always-there.

    the government's DST, does not *give* them to us.

    nature and the sun, gives us dawn, day, late afternoon, and evening... 365 days a year. on her lovely schedule.

    bahhhhhh-humbug on the government's DST!!!!!!

    sorry, I got a bit carried away, there... at the end... -giggggles-

    Diana, You always make me smile or laugh. Just where would men be without their remotes. Ours sleeps with us in the middle of the bed!
    Love your poems too. Lovely Irish table scape.

    Too funny! I still haven't set my clocks forward yet. I have so many clocks that it may take me awhile. I wish we didn't have to change them in the first place. Ugh!

    I worried...the limerick lends itself so well to naughtiness, but you persevered and did well both times! You're the pro!!

    Thank you for a good laugh today... but my sides are still aching from laughing so hard last night with dear friends we had dinner with in our neighborhood. Shamrock cookies, I think it would be funny if the green icing made green tongues. One Halloween I made Bat cookies and yup you guessed it iced with black. My Grands after eating lots looked a fright!
    Happy Sunday!
    xoxo,
    Vera

    Oh, Diana, too funny as usual, and I did forget to set the clocks until I got up at 9:00 and thought I had gotten up really early for a Sunday morning!!! I pray that you never lose that remote or the excitement will be all over! And your little blobs look very appealing!!..Happy Sunday..Judy

    Confession ... the clock in my bathroom has finally caught up with daylight savings... I never changed it last year. I know! I can't believe it either. I'm such a rebel! LOL! That blob cookie looks tastey.

    You are so funny! There's always one clock that I forget to set when we have the time change. There's just so many between the house and cars. Anyway, your shamrock cookie looks delicious and your table is so pretty. Enjoy your week!
