Sweet Treats


Mason at one time wanted to be a chef. I'm not sure whether or not he has changed his mind, but I do know that he likes to work with food, perhaps because he likes to eat it. Boys  need those calories to keep active.  And that is no surprise.



What might be a surprise , however. is this quote.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, "the buck stops here." Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve  better."    
~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006

Are you still shaking your head?  Did he just hang himself on his own gallows?

Remember: "There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation.  
One is by the sword.  The other is by debt."
~ John Adams, 1826

  1. Both were made of graham crackers, but that's ok. He still claims he wants to be a chef. He has always been about food!
