Fried pies!!!

I am a HAPPY girl this week... not just because life is great.... but because I found out that KFC has started a value menu which includes apple turnovers. So what's the BIG deal?!?... Well... I will tell you. You might have to be as old as dirt to remember this... but years ago McDonalds had apple pies that were deep fried and flaky and crunchy and oh so WAY yummy. I loved those things.... THEN McDonalds decided they had to be health conscious (McDonalds and HEALTHY in the same sentence?) so instead of fried pies they did a big promo on their new BAKED pies... oh so NOT the same... not even close! So I thought I would live out my life fried pieless... UNTIL THIS WEEK!!!... I was going through the Wednesday junk mail and came upon this flyer. I looked and exclaimed... yes EXCLAIMED... LOOK!!!... those look just like those great little pies I used to love!!! and pointed to the picture of little pies and told my story to the fam. So to make a short story longer... I HAD to check it out right away... AND... I've been to KFC twice since Wednesday (I live AND work very close to KFC's) and have savored each bite of my long lost yummy treat! Yep... they are almost EXACTLY like the pies of my younger days (and cheap too!). Thank you KFC!!!!!

About Me

Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!
