Presidential Frivolity

I did my best to get the children excited about watching the inauguration today. We made patriotic pretzel sticks:


and red, white, and blue mocktails:


but the Boy probably summed up their views on the event best when he suggested that the inauguration would be more interesting if there was a comedian. I have to agree that some of the poetry went on a mite long for my taste, but then I'm not cultured enough to appreciate poetry. Interestingly, the Poet Laureate of the United States lives about a block away from me. She is lovely and buys shoes from Zappos (I know this because there was an empty box in her recycling last week). I have this fantasy that someday there will be a Blogger Laureate of the United States. Of course it would be someone like Glennon from Momastery, but maybe I could work in the coat room at her coronation or something.
