Good 44ยบ very dark and cloudy morning.
Supposed to stay dry today. Hope so. Jason coming up to weed-eat, DirecTV
guy coming to fix cable.
ALREADY the first of May! The year is zipping along!
Here are a few more of Ike's puns.....
1. I know a guy who is addicted to brake fluid. He says he can stop any
time.
2. How does Moses make his tea? Hebrews it.
3. I stayed up all night to see where the sun went. Then it dawned on
me.
Mr. Blue Birdie guarding his house... and giving me "the look"...
Yesterday's progression....8am, 3pm, 4pm, 6pm
I receive the JD Foods weekly bacon report and in this weeks it has a
grocer request form. For those of you who want Baconnaise, bacon popcorn, bacon
salt, bacon gravy in your local supermarket...
Everything, everywhere, should taste like bacon.
Want a J&D's
product to be sold at a store near you? We've made it easier than ever with our
grocer request form. Just fill it out and hand it
to your local store manager - you'll be helping yourself and humanity (within a
20 mile radius at least). They really work!
.
I'm giving one to Ray's, Albertson's, Safeway, and any other store I can
think of.... Hmmm... Wal-Mart!
Historically this date...
1991 – Rickey Henderson of the
Oakland Athletics
steals his 939th base, making him the all-time leader in this category. However,
his accomplishment is overshadowed later that evening by Nolan Ryan of the Texas Rangers,
when he pitches his seventh career no-hitter, breaking his own
record.
2011 – Osama bin Laden, the
suspected mastermind behind the September 11
attacks is killed by United States special forces
in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Due to
the time difference between the United States and Pakistan, bin Laden was killed
on May 2 in Pakistan.
And births this date include....
... I like the smiling fact better!
Last night for dinner I made some orange chicken. It was 'good' but sure
needed tweaking. Followed recipe ... first time with this one. Baked not fried.
Nice, but will work on it before I share, because it has to be WOW to share! I
really LOVE Wanchai Ferry Orange Chicken*. But, would like to make from
scratch...
*a General Mills product.
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Tuesday. Ciao.
