Here we go again with the 2012- 2015 Blogging From A to Z April Challenge a-to-zchallenge.com. it took me a couple minutes to figure out what picture to share featuring the Letter G because my theme is #thingsaroundthehouse.
Sitting at my desk I started to look around my living room looking for something that started with the Letter G and at first all I could think of what my mom and I. Because our names start with the Letter G. I didn’t want to show myself and didn’t have a picture of my mom to share.
I put this post to the side and went back to work. Then low and behold I figured out what I could share. it was Back In St. Olaf Mints from the tv show Golden Girls back In St. Ola featuring Rose and the Bold Viking Flavor After Geneuckenflugen Cake.
