Poison Apples & The 3 Keys To Success
Happy First Day Of Spring!
Well, at least here in New Hampshire, USA. 😊
Good time to think about the 3 keys to success:
1. You’ve gotta have the right materials
2. You’ve gotta put in the time
3. You’ve gotta be passionate about what you do
Wishing you all an abundant harvest!

Swooning, swooning, swaying, levitating, wafting off into the ether on a cloud of happiness– that’s what I’m doing with a beatific smile on my face, and a haunting, beautiful MK-O song in my heart!!!!😇☁️❤️🔊🎼🎶🌖👽
Thank you, thank you, thank you 1,000x, my dearest Marina, and do, do, please do forgive this terrible, embarrassing, and inexcusably late reply. Alas, I contracted some kind of flu bug, and was sick most of March and on into April. I even went to bed with chills just a few nights ago– and I hadn’t even been looking at your beautiful calendar, which always gives me thrills and chills!! I’m trying to battle my way back to good health by getting plenty of sleep, and eating only healthy foods… 😴😴😴💤👙😳😴😴🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨😊
Thank you for your beautiful comment! Hope you are well! Happy Spring! Happy Easter! And may blessings rain down upon you, and drench you with love and happiness!!! 👸🏻⛅️☁️💧💦💦💦🛀🏼🏊🚣🏄🎩👒🍨🌷🌸🌺🌻🌼❤️❤️❤️💥🚑😊

I’m trying to figure out the poison apple part. Isn’t more like medicine apples rather than poison?

Ha! “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”– unless it’s a poison apple served up by an evil queen or a wicked witch!! (ask Snow White— she knows!!)
Hi, Jean! Please excuse this terribly late reply. I’m afraid I got sick back in March, and it’s taken me a long time to recover– it must have been that Poison Apple Pie I bought at a bake sale… : )
Hope you’re well. I think spring has finally come to New Hampshire– time to put some air in my bicycle tires!! : )

That’s a very typical New Hampshire expression. You see it on men, women, dogs, chickadees, chipmunks. Very typical. OK, OK, I cleaned it up a little for publication, but it’s very close… : )
I wish I hadn’t used the word passionate, however. Be passionate about what you do. Yawn! That’s become such a cliche. Kids running lemonade stands are probably using it: “We’re passionate about selling this slop…” Right– and they only use locally-sourced organic hand-squeezed concentrate from the Sam’s Club Co-op!!
Thanks, RK– you’re already a big success because you’re you!! : )
