Ditty and Poonch II came down last night and babysat for us so we could go out for Zippy's 26th birthday (we went to Buca's and then to IKEA where we spent $230, thanks for asking). This morning we got up and went downtown for Nickle Dickle Days.
Yes, Nickle Dickle Days. I don't know why or who came up with choosing Dickle as the only word that would rhyme with Nickle, but someone did. So, what is Nickle Dickle days? After attending the event, I'm still not sure. There was a car show, which Baba, Zippy, and Poonch II attended. Ditty and I went to the scrapbook store where we purchased paper for a nickle! Hooray!
Then we went to Pizza Ranch for lunch where the lunch buffet (pizza, salads, chicken, potatoes, etc) was $5.55 a person. We walked past a bar with $.55 domestic taps. The candy store had candy for $.05. The library had a book sale, but no books were for a nickle, apparently they didn't get that memo.
What people in small towns do for excitement.

Nickel Pickle? Nickel Sickel? Nicker Rickel? Nickel Lickel? I guess Dickel really is the best choice.
