Good 45º cloudy morning. Rain supposedly coming
back in a couple of days.
A year ago today it was 24º and that crazy guy
Christopher Dorner, former LAPD, was on a killing spree... Then on the news last
night they talked about the wrong way drunk 21 year old female that caused the
death of 6 people on the 60 Fwy at Diamond Bar...... Horrific! The freeway was
closed down for 8 hours! One
of the dead was the subject's sister.
Yesterday the sun did come out for a short time.
Nice. Then it got cloudy again. Warmed to 58º.
My pal Linda told me about these socks... called
Heat Holders... They come in men's and women's sizes and colors. Just what you
folks need in those snowy places!!!
Here is a favorite simple side dish recipe of
mine...
Sue's Polish
Noodles
small onion
4 cups shredded cabbage
8oz pkg egg noodles
1 T. caraway seed
Salt Pepper
1/2 cup sour cream
Chop onion and sauté in butter. Add cabbage.
Sauté. Cook noodles, drain, and add. Add caraway seed, salt pepper to taste and
mix in sour cream, heat 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Voilá. If you like, mix
in some cooked chopped bacon and/or sauteéd mushrooms. YUMMMMMY!

Yesterday I went to the road to take the trash...
I had purchased this "adult beverage holder" a long time ago. Never used it and
thought it would be fun to put my wine in. Well, the danged thing doesn't work
any more and it also says to empty the alcoholic beverages out of it every time
it's used and rinse it out. Fuey. So I put it on top of my mailbox. Ha ha ha...
someone will come along and take it...
You can dispense (supposedly) liquor from either
nozzle.
Looking from the driveway up towards the road and the mailboxes. It won't be there today!!
Last night I watched most of the Beatles show.
Interesting. Good music. It was "The Night That Changed America: A Grammy Salute
To The Beatles" ... recorded January 27th and aired last night. They showed the
debut performance by the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show 50 years ago. Yoko Ono
was in the front row and she looked high on something. Weirdo! Indoors at night
and wearing dark glasses. Can't stand her!!! Here she is with her son, Sean.
Weirdo also!!
All I know. Happy Munday... Nuff said.
Ciao.

Umbrella
Day
Umbrella Day is in
honor of one of the world's most invaluable inventions. On a rainy, day, we are
sure glad that someone was smart enough to invent it. It's also increasingly
popular to use umbrellas to shade ourselves from harmful UV radiation, and the
heat of the sun. Umbrellas come in all sorts of sizes,
colors, shapes, and, designs. Businesses and organizations use them for
advertising. The smallest umbrellas fit inside a purse or glove compartment.
Golf umbrellas are popular sizes. Then, there are lawn and beach umbrellas.
There's one (or two) made just for
you.
