Bells (not silver)

Just back from Europe.

Yes! We went to Europe for the holidays. My dad had to work over Christmas, so we decided to go on his trips with him. Spent a day in 's Gravenhage (The Hague), one in Amsterdam, and 2 in Kobenaven (Copenhagen). It was excellent!

The most amazing part was hearing every church bell throughout Copenhagen declare the birth of the Savior on Christmas Eve.

Peels

I like to eat, eat, eat, apples and bananas...

Bananas are easy to peel. I like them.

I hate peeling oranges, tangerines, and other citrus fruits. They are oh so refreshing to eat. I would eat them more often if they weren't so dag-on-difficult to peel.

When I was a kid I got bleach in my eye while cleaning our swingset. The eye doctor said my cornea looked like an orange peel.
