Currin Power

The annual gingerbread house construction is set for tomorrow after church, what a wonderful time of year, and such a great time to sit with other families and enjoy fellowship with others. What started out a few years ago as a way for me to teach our youth, or actually retain a little attention, while teaching Sunday school has evolved into a lovely event. I usually buy the kits a few days before and set them on the tables in the fellowship hall, which the tables are sort of like the church pews in that they are self assigned and you better not sit in someone else's spot. I knew the competition (did I say that) was going to be fierce as the other day. I noticed Mrs. Lemon from the church dropping off her children at school and as I rolled down the window, our eyes locked and I spoke with my sweetest voice. "Hi..don't forget sunday is the gingerbreadhouse building at church.." Mrs. Lemon was quick with "..Oh don't worry, we would never miss it.." Well I replied "Glad to hear it.." Eyes still locked.. "Well good luck" I responded.. Mrs. Lemon was now squinting a little "..You are gonna need a lot of luck..we have Lemon Power.." Rolling up the window..I made a mad dash to the local store..need little side items to make our gingerbread house shine..Hummm..Little does she know that we have Currin Power..
