Good 52º clear sunny morning. Again, another 94º
yesterday.
Yesterday breakfast was a warmed cinnamon raisin muffin with
butter and Laney honey, two hard boiled eggs with bacon salt, and some decadent
whipped cream topped coffee!
The honey is Laney Honey (cousins of mine, Dave Laney and his
daughter Linda, and the BEST honey ever!) back in Indiana.
Here is a short video of their production...
And the two hard boiled eggs with Bacon Salt..
The honey can be purchased from the Laney website. The salt can be
purchased from the JD website or Amazon. If you have free shipping with Amazon
it's cheaper.

Pal Ike Saben (LASD ret) sent this. I LOVE it. What a great story of a
little girl and her pet duck. Put a smile on my face!!!
Later I went into RR to drop some "stuff" at Goodwill. Then to Grants Pass to take the Crock*Pot to Leah. I told
her I had my casserole crock that I use all the time now and don't need the big
one. She wanted it. Also Leah got some of the wine glasses. Then to Safeway for
groceries...
When I got off the freeway heading into GP there was a young man just
getting on his skateboard and heading down the hill the same as me.
(I didn't take this picture.. it was on Google Earth) As he headed under
the overpass he hit a bump and went flying head over heels! I stopped
immediately and asked if he was OK. He said he was, and I said, "Are you sure?
I'll give you a ride." He said he was sure. OMGOSH! What a jolt for him!
At Leah's salon there was a lady and we started talking. She said something
about Hillary and I made a face and a remark. She smiled, high fived, and
totally agreed. She had gone to the same high school with Hill-liary and said
several things about her character.... back then. She was spoiled rich, acted
like she was a total bitch, entitled, self-centered, etc. What a surprise!
Back when she was young she went from being Republican to Democrat.
Then at Safeway my "cat purse" got a conversation started with a lady.
(That purse always gets people's attention and garners
comments!) This lady showed me a picture of her cat and told me she and her
husband had just moved up here from Orange County. She was in LOVE with our area
here. Here name was Janet. Nice! Woulda coulda shoulda given her my card with my
email on it! We had a nice chat!
It's not a good thing to shop in the late afternoon in the summer when the
temps are high. After unloading the car I was a soaking wet mess!! Whew. Good
thing for Mr. Carrier and his invention AND ice and wine!!! Then a nice conversation with my California pal, Linda.
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Hump Day. Ciao.

Waffle Iron Day
23 things you can cook in a waffle iron:
Grands Cinnamon Rolls, hash brown nuggets, and brownie mix are a few favorites of
mine along with Grands Biscuits, slit and stuffed with cheese!
Waffle Iron Day celebrates
this great kitchen gadget that makes tasty waffles. Waffles are cooked between
two metal plates. A waffle iron is powered by electricity to heat the plates and
create, light waffles ready for you to top with syrup, and/or your favorite
fruits.
Waffles are not just for breakfast. They are good for lunch or dinner,
too.
The origin of the waffle: The waffle dates back to the 1300s in
Greece. Greeks cooked flat cakes between two metal pans. At the time, they
topped it with cheeses and herbs. Pancake syrup wasn't around back then.
You do know how to celebrate this day.......don't you!? If you don't have a
waffle iron, today is a good day to go out and buy one. If you are too busy to
make waffles yourself, buy some frozen in your grocery store, or order them out
at a
restaurant.
