In Jodie's Brain

I love things that are innovative. My poor boyfriend has to put up with my info-junkie ways; far too many times during the day, while he is steadfastily working away I interject and inturrupt his thoughts with a very uncivilized “OMG! You need to see this! This is awesome! Brilliant!”

Now, my criteria for “brilliant” is probably akin to “amusing” or “possibly of note” to some people, but I like to give kudos where I believe kudos are due.

Mass mailing or “tree spam” isn’t something normally seen with glee; however, when I checked my mailbox this morning, there was this lovely die-cut brochure from Cobs Bread.

It has a scratch-’n-sniff square inside. How brilliant is that!! Our connection to fresh-baked goods is very much based in the olfactory realm. Good for you guys for doing this.

Also; damn you. Now I want cinnamon buns.

I just noticed that the dates for the seminars were one day off due to the fact that I was using a calendar that had Sunday as the last day of the week as opposed to the first. Those corrections have been made and are as follows:

May is now the 30th and 31st

June is now the 27th and 28th.

Hope that makes it easier for everyone!

You bet!
