This past Sunday we had a lovely fellowship lunch after church.  As is mandatory with all Baptist churches worth a second look, everyone brought large portions of absolutely delicious foods - main dishes and desserts, salads, drinks, etc.  Yes, of course there was fried chicken (it was gone before we made it through the line) and yes there was pie.  Apple, lemon, cherry, pumpkin.

After we had lunch, my 7 yr old Jordan went up with me to the dessert table.  I let her dish herself up a few treats, and she turned to me and said:

"Wow mom, this is really nice, there are no flies!"

I nodded, in humiliated agreement, hoping no one heard her (as if they wouldn't understand - the church is in farm country, most there live on farms too).

Lord willing, I'm going to the hardware store Wednesday to buy an automated fly-be-gone-timed dispenser - the kind restaurants use. I've been assured by everyone who is in the know - that this little gem, fully loaded with KONK fly spray, is the thing to do the trick. 

We'll see. I sure hope so, these flies drive me nuts!
