Grab the nearest book . . . .

2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don’t you dare dig for that “cool” or “intellectual” book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.

Here's a meme I saw on someone's knitting blog, from a post in February. I can't remember the blog, though.

So, here I go, from "Teachings of the Presidents of the Church: Spencer W. Kimball" (This is a lesson manual for this year in the LDS Church.) Twas the nearest thing (After a Barbie hardcover called Sea of Friends, but that book only has pages in the double digits.)

Page 123 is the footnote references for the chapter/lesson, referring to sources of various quotes used in the lesson, so I went to its facing page, page 122. These Notes weren't sentences.

Here's the 3 sentences:

"Consider these ideas as you study the chapter or as you prepare to teach. For additional help, see pages v-ix.

Given that our lives are connected with family, friends, the Church, and the community, what do you think it means to be self-reliant and independent?"

Well, there you go. Lol. It's a good question, though! I guess I'll do some thinking on it, read the chapter/lesson, and maybe post more on it this week.

Who shall I tag for this meme? How about Crafting Jen, Tea, Annegb, and Dr. Anonymous.

Please, everyone else play along as well if you like! I'm curious! This was fun to do, although the first coupla books my eyes fell upon were that Barbie one, a Magic Treehouse one, A Cam Jansen one, and other short books of my daughter's.

Japanese Meiji Rich Straberry Bar

Okay, so I'm merrily reading the blogs I read in Bloglines, when I come across the newest Candy Addict blog posting. It's about a foreign candy, as they frequently do. Meiji is apparently Japan's biggest chocolate company. This bar doesn't seem to be chocolate though, or at least doesn't have a chocolate taste. Which is just fine considering what it IS!!

A Strawberry bar! And it contains 70% fresh strawberry pulp, yummmmm!!! The Candy Blog gave this bar their highest score, and their seal of approval - Candyaddict.com Awesomely Addictive Candy Award!

They said it REALLY tastes like juicy, sweet fresh strawberries! Sounds GREAT to me! This is definitely on my MUST list, now . . . . even if the color is a little scary, for a candy bar (since it contains so much strawberry, though, I'd hope most of the color was natural . . . )
