I realize the subject of today’s post isn’t a song title. I just don’t know what song I’m going to use at this point.

Took a little day trip today to visit friends. Lunch at Monical’s Pizza, home of the bizarre yet strangely tasty thin crust pizza that tastes great with their special French dressing. Yes, I know… weird as HECK. I hate French dressing… but this actually makes it taste even better.

Hung out with Sara and Mike in the afternoon and had a great home-cooked meal — ham, mac & cheese and corn bread muffins. Sara really outdid herself. And unfortunately, I think I outdid myself — ATE. TOO. MUCH.  

Played some games after E retired for the evening and headed home around 10pm or so — it was a long drive back, but thankfully uneventful. It was a great day.. except for…

THE GREAT PACKAGE FIASCO.

Tried early in the AM to send a package out to Mom and Dad that had a bunch of Feb birthday gifts — but FedEx Kinkos was closed at 9:20am, USPS was sold out of large boxes, and the UPS shipper wanted $30 to send the stuff… so against my better judgment, we waited until we could send from Indy… except I showed up at 4:20 — 20 minutes after the UPS Store closed. ANNOYING.

Now, for the song of the day, I could give you a song about Pizza, or a song about Mac and Cheese, but that would be a little silly and a little too obvious. I’m sure there are plenty of songs about ham as well, or maybe even some about crockpots. I’m not going there — besides, I’m saving my food-related song post for the 16th. Just you wait…

I can’t even use “Code Monkey”, a song Mike V turned me on to, cause I used it yesterday. ..

No, today’s post is going to be a song I heard in the pizza joint on the radio as part of some compilation smooth jazz kinda thing… great song originally recorded by Stevie Wonder called “As”. We did a version in France at our coffee house when we went over there as part of a mission trip back in 2004. If you don’t know this song, you should get familiar with it. Beautifully written… another Stevie masterpiece.

Unfortunately LaLa doesn’t carry the version we did  by Nicole Nordeman — so I’ll try to link to it on iTunes.

And here’s the original by Stevie Wonder
