Frugal Fun Day

Margie: Edna, did you remember that Saturday was Frugal Fun Day? That's a day when people are supposed to participate in fun activities that are free or inexpensive.

I suppose I'm dreaming if I think you did anything fun because you're a stick-in-the-mud person. I guess I should have told you to go fly a kite.

Edna:  Shows what you know, because I did fly a kite!  I got that old kite of Cousin T's out of the shed and had me a fine old time down at the park.

I suppose you did something frugal, too?  That'll be the day!

Margie: Don't you worry about what I did, sister. Let's just say many of the finer things in life really are free.

Fun Friday

Margie: Times sure have changed. I watched Beach Blanket Bingo last night. Remember those old beach movies with Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello? I thought they were grand when I went to the movie theater to see them.

I look at them now and think how silly they are and the acting surely left a lot to be desired. I can't talk about the music or I'll really get tickled.

Watch them sometimes and see what you think. I only regret that I can't get that good popcorn we had back then. It's not the same now either.
