Grocery shopping last night, and standing there grinding up some beans, my husband noticed that next to all the coffee were the coffee filters. Perfectly sensible. Next to the coffee filters were the ash trays.
He asked, "Why are the ash trays here with the coffee filters?", I said, "Because that is how a Mormon arranges things!"
Apparently, we were in the 'Offenses Against The WoW' aisle.
LOL!

Love it.

Yeah, this quirky kind of stuff is what makes Utah a pretty great state. I really do get a kick out of it, in a good way.

Sometimes I miss Utah. I wonder if I lived anywhere other than where I live if I would also feel homesick. Who needs Utah when you have the Vestfold?

Ahh Spurven, you would love Wisconsin. We also have moss and tree-encrusted tall rock formations, lakes and rivers, and a fresh-water ocean on our east coast.
I wouldn't live in Utah for all the coffee and tobacco in the world.

Sorry for the "off topic" Spurven Ten Sing, but how did you get from Utah to Norway? Did you start in Norway and go back? I don't think I have heard the story, but I would like to.

I understand how the culture in Utah might put you off (does me, too), but the natural beauty of Utah is beyond comparison.
