We did watch "Paddington Bear" tonight again, which again is an excellent movie. I have to say honestly it is my favorite movie so far this year, and yes that includes quite a bit I've seen since then. It's just really well done, that's all. The subject of marmalade came up again, naturally. It's something that we all enjoy rather much, especially the recent marmalade sampling we had in Florida at Nana and Ba-Ba's house. That marmalade was amazingly fresh and full of citrus flavor. This may be because of Captain Citrus.
We didn't actually see Captain Citrus down there in Florida, which might be a good thing, as I guess he only appears when there are emergencies related to the orange crops. Or, it could be that he's there to enhance the flavor somehow, which of course gives Florida an unfair edge over the products coming from California. It's my understanding that his power comes from the sun, which explains why he doesn't live in Washington state.
ANYWAY, the marmalade was strong. And good. And Madison likes it a bit as well, although not as much as Daddy does. He's not as crazy about it as Paddington Bear, of course.
So we're back. And we're getting used to being back, which takes a bit of adjustment. Marmalade helps. But there was a lot of work to be done, as we're getting ready for another big church conference this weekend. So we were back on the old grind, whatever that means. Maybe the grind is there to sharpen the implements they use to peel oranges and make marmalade.
Regardless, we were all back together tonight to watch a movie and pretty much go to bed rather quickly. Everyone is still tired from the vacation, and the weekend after that. It was a great weekend, and a great vacation. And that always helps. We're getting back to work after a change of pace, and a bit of rest on top of that. And, we'll get back to work with a bit of marmalade as well. It's what Captain Citrus would want.
