Yesterday UPS came before I got dressed so told him just to leave by the
gate to the front yard. Dude got a cookie, so he was happy! I had ordered
from Amazon the dry cat food Bruiser likes that has been taken off the shelves
at Safeway (said they are changing a lot of things!) and our local Rays.
Grrrrr.... actually it was cheaper than at the market!
Here's a good recipe for summer... easy and in the crock pot! Chicken
Queso:
1 rotisserie chicken from the market... shredded
1 16oz jar fire-roasted salsa
3 cups Monterey Jack cheese, cubed or shredded
1 4oz can diced green chilies
Tortilla chips for dipping
Celery, carrots, bell peppers, etc... cut and for dipping
Mix shredded chicken and salsa in a 3.5 qt slow cooker. Top with cheese and
green chilies. Cook on low for 2 hours or high 1 hour.
Serve with veggies and chips.
Something you might not know...
The Olympic motto is made up of three Latin words: Citius, Altius,
Fortius, which is Latin for "Faster, Higher, Stronger." The motto was proposed
by Pierre de Coubertin on the creation of the International Olympic Committee in
1894. Coubertin borrowed it from his friend Henri Didon, a Dominican priest who,
amongst other things, was an athletics enthusiast. Coubertin said "These three
words represent a programme of moral beauty. The aesthetics of sport are
intangible." The motto was introduced in 1924 at the Olympic Games in
Paris.

National Rum Day
When Jerry and I were in Jamaica (for a Fabergé sales convention) we toured
the Appleton Rum Estate. On the bus there we were all served rum. Had more at
the Estate, and on the way back to the hotel most all of the men and women were
napping!!
