Good 33ยบ clear morning. Hopefully a nice 'outdoor' day.
Yesterday I got my new flags up.... finally!
God Bless America! God Bless the Marine Corps!
God help us all!
On Tuesday I left the Bohemian where I had lunch with the girls and stopped
to drop a prescription at my pharmacy in RR. Leaving there, a woman was walking
along and made a sudden right turn towards the car lane where I was driving. She
never looked up. She was far enough away so I just continued on... as I passed
her she screamed at me, "STOP!" I rolled down the passenger side window and
said, "What? You think you're at f**king Disneyland?" I know. But idiots think
everyone should pay attention to what they are doing and they don't have to be
accountable and they all think whatever they do they have the right of way!
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
Then she yelled..."BITCH! And your big black truck!" LOL. I said back, "And
your shoes are ugly!" (She was 30-ish, really heavy, and had on bright pink
tennis shoes.)
Then she just stepped right off
the curb immediately in front of moving traffic!! Two cars had to quickly stop
and sit and wait for her to cross in front of them. No crosswalk there! She
needed a citation, big time! And an attitude adjustment! I'm still smiling. That
was fun!
Every day the news is bad...
Boston carnage and now loss of life in Texas from the explosion. Seems like
our soldiers are being killed every day too. I'm becoming like a lot of people I
know, I don't want to know! Just sent a donation to the Red Cross and one to
DAV! And can you believe, some 'group' is angry that the suspect in the Boston
bombings was described as "dark skinned"! Geeeeeeeze people. What if he had been
"pale white" or "Asian looking" or ...... ???? How do you describe someone so
the police can look for him? "Oh, it was a man." Well gee whiz, shouldn't men
get mad about that. "Oh pardon me, it was a person". Duh. Ok, off the
box.......
Historically this date....
And births this date....
Yesterday afternoon I made pesto. I had a bag of spinach that was reaching
it's prime so I made spinach pesto!
Brown the pine nuts in a dry pan on the stove. Peel a bunch of cloves of
garlic and put that and pine nuts in food processor. Add spinach (pack it in)
and a good amount of Parmesan cheese and a pinch of sea salt. Turn on processor
and pour a thin steady stream of olive oil in until it's the consistency you
like. Got that done and some of the pesto in zip freezer bags and put in
freezer. Then made a ham and pesto sandwich on a cheese roll..... OINK!
I had a note yesterday from a friend who said that 4-17 was "Jerry's Day"
.... yes. He was the gunsmith extraordinaire ! AND my snivel for the day (yes,
Billy Boy....SNIVEL!) that nobody mentioned the funny from yesterday's blog....
"cross hares"!!!
:o(
All I know. Happy Thursday. Nuff said. Ciao.

National Animal Crackers Day
National Animal Crackers Day celebrates a truly fun food. When you were a
kid, did you eat the trunks off the elephants first? Or the heads and necks of
the giraffes? However you made your animal bites, these lightly sweetened
crackers (cookies, really) have been delighting
