Three Bits O' News

Three news bulletins on a chilly, cloudy day:

1. The wee Peanuts and I visited Mr. at his store today, and enjoyed a lunch date together. The store is coming along quite nicely, and they are gearing up for the big grand opening celebration. Apparently they have hired someone named Pineapple John to be the DJ for the big celebration. Apparently Pineapple John often talks about Pineapple John in the third person. Apparently Pineapple John's best man was Tiny Tim. Yes, *that* Tiny Tim. Should be an interesting grand opening, to say the least. Tune in here on May 15th for pictures of the store and reviews of Pineapple John's performance.

2. The ballots have been cast, and we can officially declare Master's first word to be (drumroll, please) . . . . "no." As I chastised little Master today for trying to operate the stereo, he turned to me with a wry grin and said "noooooo . . . nooooooo." I'm quite sure that he knows the meaning of the word, and has been repeating it often. It makes sense that it would be his first word, since he hears it umpteen times every day. Here is Master practicing his new word:



3. Miss had her hair trimmed today. We went to an establishment called Kids' Hair (clever name, eh?) near our apartment. The people were nice, the cut was good and greatly overpriced considering it took a total of 2.5 minutes to complete. Oh well, Miss watched Elmo while the nice lady snipped away, and enjoyed herself thoroughly.

A fresh, sassy cut and a green sucker reward:



Who could ask for anything more?

How we, Grandad and Grandma Peanut, wish we could be there on opening day! We will be thinking of you all, and do hope that you take lots of pictures, especially of the Pineapple person. It is hard to miss, but we know that it will be a wonderful day for all the Peanuts, as well as for Trader Joes!
