The Sunday Funnies

We heard a Taylor Swift song in a movie, and later another song of hers in a commercial.  "Taylor Swift is getting really, really famous!" Dorothy exclaimed.

We've been enjoying the Who Is/Who Was book series.  Dorothy mentioned that she has a copy of Who Was Anne Frank that she got in the school book swap, but she hasn't read it yet.  "I don't want to read it," I said, "because it's so sad.  She died really young."  Dorothy countered, "Well, it's as long as any of the other books, so she still had a lot of interesting events in her life."

Dorothy watched a movie years ago in her first grade class and came home talking about it.  We couldn't find the movie she described online, but by looking at the stills on YouTube we found and enjoyed its sequel, Rabbit School:  Guardians of the Golden Egg.  Today, Brian was flipping through movies available on our current streaming service, and Dorothy ran to me.  "Mom!" she said.  "I finally found out the name of the movie that I liked in school, the first one before Rabbit School:  Guardians of the Golden Egg.  It's called Rabbit School."

I stitched an embroidery kit that reads "Coffee, please."  The packaging was printed in both English and French.  "Do they think the people who need the French words can read Coffee, please?" Dorothy asked.
