Good 55º clear sunny morning. We hit 93º yesterday. Heading
towards triple digits this week.
Oh happy Monday. Schools are getting back in gear in So Cal.
Kristen is back to work at Coolidge Elementary.
She has a new principal. Hope that works out. Her former
principal Patty, took dancing lessons from my pal Judy (Nichols) Seielstad
Houston. Judy passed away a few years ago. Judy was the daughter of June
Nichols, who had a dance studio in Alhambra where I took lessons...
And Patty is the niece of Judy's husband Kenny Houston. Small
world.
Breakfast yesterday was another egg baked in bread, cinnamon muffin with honey, and tomato. As I said, these eggs are so good!! I love them. Crispy crunchy bread and perfectly cooked egg, topped with a thin slice of butter and a little cheese.
If you didn't see or get the recipe, check my blog on July 19th:
My high school pal, Nancy's (Kujala) daughter Stephanie and her mate
Derek Hunt run Sable Ranch in Santa Clarita. The Sand Fire just about destroyed
the ranch. Lots of movies and commercials have been filmed there.
The fire completely destroyed the western town.
The Ranch website:

My pal Trish, who was a delegate to the RNC in Cleveland, took this picture because she knows how much I like our Congressman Greg Walden!
Later in the afternoon I went over to Jennifer's on the river. Her deck
view looking towards the Rogue:
She made a rotisserie chicken and salad. I took some fresh cut up
pineapple. We sat on her deck and drank wine. Her dogs joined us on the
deck...
Sugar Fox:
Heaven:
Keeper:
These dogs are sooooooooooooo sweet and loving. Just a pleasure to be around them!
Jennifer had bought this wine:
This is the wine maker's dog, Aggie. It's a Viognier made in Jacksonville
at Devitt Winery.
Anyway, Jennifer didn't like the wine and she asked me to try it. I liked
it! She gave me these two bottles. Lucky me!!!! As it turned out I was wearing
this shirt yesterday:
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Monday. Ciao.

July 25th
July 25, 2016 is
National
Hot Fudge Sundae Day
Today
is National Hot Fudge Sundae Day! A sundae is the perfect treat to enjoy on a
summer night. The cold ice cream paired with a warm, chocolate topping is one of
the most delicious combinations known to man. Add some nuts, whipped cream, and
cherries on top and you’ve got yourself a world-famous dessert!
The
Guinness Book of World Records has documented several record-setting sundaes.
For example, the most expensive sundae can be ordered at Serendipity 3 in New
York City for the hefty sum of $1000. In 2009, the Kids Club in Brunswick,
Georgia created the world’s longest sundae. It measured over 130 feet long!
To
celebrate National Hot Fudge Sundae Day, you don’t have to go to such great
lengths. Just treat yourself to a scrumptious hot fudge sundae with all of your
favorite
toppings!
