Much as I liked the Clint Eastwood "Twilight Years" piece, it's not
true.... Thanks Ed... http://www.snopes.com/politics/quotes/twilightyears.asp
I did like this part though: I
voted against that incompetent, lying, flip-flopping, insincere, double-talking,
radical socialist, terrorist excusing, bleeding heart, narcissistic, scientific
and economic moron currently in the White House!
Those are my sentiments exactly! Whomever wrote it was right
on!
My high school pal Annalee and her husband Led are now partners in a winery
in San Louis Obispo.

A couple years back I went to a gathering with friends and
brought fresh corn on the cob. I mixed a package of Lawry's Taco Seasoning with
mayonnaise and we spread it on the cooked corn. Everyone loved it! Try something
new besides butter!!!
Or slather on some mayonnaise and sprinkle on grated Parmesan
cheese! OMG!
On this date in 1980 my nephew Dr. Joe and his bride Denise were married.

Yesterday's breakfast... white cheddar rice cakes, egg salad from eggs
from Nancy and Dave's chickens, and one of Bill and Jeannie's awesome tomatoes!
Thanks friends!!!
And... last night's dinner was an Omaha Steak breaded veal patty, some
couscous/quinoa veggie mixture I had made and frozen, and some of Jeannie's
cherry tomatoes. OMGOOOOOD!!! The veal patty you can either thaw and fry in a
little olive oil or bake in the oven. I chose to fry it!
Excitement was rampant yesterday. I cleaned up my desk, went through the
check register, paid a couple on line bills, vacuumed, and did 3 loads of
laundry. Whoop.
I saw a deer go from the side of the house to the backyard. She has a bad
back leg and was limping. Sigh............ I felt so bad. Then came into the
kitchen and there was another doe and a little buck in the front yard. She found
one of my plants she liked and sniffed the bird feeder.
The quail were also back again, but no pictures. They move fast!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Sunday. Ciao.

August 10th
National S'mores Day
S'mores
are a favorite campsite treat for young and old kids. If you're at a campfire,
chances are, there's S'mores. Sticky and gooey, and loaded with sugar and carbs,
S'mores are nothing short of delicious. Who was the first person to create
S'mores? We don't know. But, we're all sure glad they did!
National
S'mores Day celebrates this tasty summer treat. It's appropriately observed in
August...campfire prime time. Don't limit your consumption of S'mores to the
campfire. They are popular with kids year round, and can be baked in the oven,
or microwave.
The
origin of S'mores dates back to the 1920's. It's believed the recipe was created
by the Campfire Girls. Girl Scouts soon discovered it, and found it to be
chocolaty delicious. Before long, S'mores became a campfire staple for
everyone. S'more folklore suggests that S'mores got its name right by the
campfire. After eating one, young kids chanted "gimme some more!"
While
much is written about National S'mores Day, our research has been unable to
verify that this is an officially recognized national day (which requires an act
of Congress). Don't let that stop you from celebrating this day with a few
S'mores.
But,
what about a S'more Pie!!!
