Letter "J" -- Weekend Roundup

THE TENTH LETTER FOR THIS SERIES) - the Letter "J" Prompts are: (A) Starts with the Letter "J"; (B) "Jam" (Tom's Choice); (C) A Favorite; (D) A Lagniappe.  

 _ _ _ _ 

[A cute Thank You card]

(A) Starts with the Letter "J":   Just starts with "J".  Just is an overworked little four letter adverb telling when or how, often meaning recently or exactly.  Like just in time or just what I needed. 
Also as an adjective meaning fair, as the judge delivered a just opinion. 

I found these cute kittens on the Thank You card saying "Just wanted to thank you."  The card was in our World Market here in Katy on Fry Road near Hwy 99 yesterday afternoon.  I found some more photo op items also.

Just fine, our Houston area weather for next week.  Like we had it before the snow and power problems.


(B) "Jam" (Tom's Choice);   Lots of imported Jam over in the food section of our World Market.

(C) A Favorite:   I like Peach Apricot Jam, these are from Scotland.  But I like Seedless Blackberry better, it is one of my Favorites.  Blueberry also but I'm not sure with the pomegranate as I've never tasted pomegranate. 


(D.1) A Lagniappe:   Jelly Beans should have to fit in here but we will have to make do with Jelly Bellies because I couldn't find any Jelly Beans at the World Market.

(D.2) Another Lagniappe:   This "J" Word is Jump.  With the technology at this moment we might could take a spaceship to the Moon or to Mars.  But on the return when your spaceship first hits the ground you'd best Jump out real fast!!  Really fast!!!  The only three spacecraft tried out so far have burst into flames and lifted again from the launching/landing pad in a ball of fire.

Bonus Questions: 
 
(1)  Tell about your craving for Jam and if there is some experience you'd like to share that would be just fine. We I am fickle to my Favorite, Seedless Blackberry, that I stated above.  I equally like Home Made Fig Preserves.  

A story about those .  We had a friend who lived in Galveston and whom we helped when we could.  I will call her Flo.  Flo liked Ms. Jim's homemade fig preserves and always asked us to bring some.  If we were eating then with her we would watch as she ate about half a jar and all the fig pieces in the jar.  She also would do that at our house with our fig preserves.  Flo died the same year that my dad and Mrs. Jim's mom died, she was fairly old.

(2) What is your favorite Word starting with  "J"?   Mine today will be "Jim, James, Jimmy, Jimmie".   Because that is my name.  My Birth Certificate says James Vernon, my Dad's name was Charles Vernon.  But they called him Jim when around, or Vernon when it was more formal.  He liked C. Vernon.  Anyway, so I became 'Little Jim' to those around me.  I'm not that anymore though, Dad died in 2007 at age 97.  And I had several nicknames, none of which stuck into adulthood.  Oh yes, Grandpa H was Charles or Charley."

(3) Anything else you were reminded of here that you  would like to tell about?

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher

[Chorus]
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

[Verse 2]
The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre

[Chorus]
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
Yeah... 

[Verse 2]
The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre

[Chorus]
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
Yeah

[Verse 1]
You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher

[Chorus]
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
