I found a Gunsmoke series being played on a local channel here on my DirecTV. OH MY GOODNESS, what memories that brings back....
Dennis Weaver and James Arness:
I certainly enjoyed watching it and have the rest of the shows ready to
record.
So, of course Bruiser was sleeping on my lap the whole time...
He has become sooooo much more clingy lately. In bed he reaches over and
touches my face with his paw, sometimes he licks my nose, and sometimes grabs my
arm with both paws (and claws) and pulls it towards him!
It's Autumn! How about a simple yummy Autumn Chicken Salad....
3 cups chopped cooked rotisserie chicken (from your local
market...so easy!)
1 cup chopped seedless red grapes
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 med Red Delicious apple, chopped
½ cup pecan halves, toasted
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup honey mustard
salt and pepper to taste
lettuce leaves
In a large bowl stir together all ingredients except lettuce
leaves.
Chill until ready to serve and serve on a bed of lettuce
leaves.

Later for dinner I heated some Alfredo Sauce... chopped up a couple tomatoes and added in along with some drained canned peas...
Then I put some gnocchi in a pot of boiling water and cooked until they
floated and drained them. Added them to the sauce mixture.
Next was to cook some mini crab cakes (Omaha Steaks http://www.omahasteaks.com/product/Mini-Crab-Cakes )
drizzled with olive oil in the Air Fryer for 7 minutes.
OINK OINK! Really good!!!!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Sunday. Ciao.

October 15, 2017 is
National Grouch Day
Today is National Grouch Day! This is a special day for all the grouchy
people out there to celebrate. Grouches are typically miserable, grumpy, and
irritable. They thrive off of others’ misfortunes, and only then are they
“happy”.
National Grouch Day allows all grouches out there to celebrate their way
of life. Not a grouch? This day also gives all the normally chipper people a day
to complain for once! For those everyday grouches, here are a few ways to live a
happier life: do a fun or silly activity, allow yourself only five minutes of
negative time, do something to benefit others, or enjoy some healthy
foods.
Celebrate National Grouch Day by being pessimistic, cranky, and
irritable, and then be nice tomorrow! You can also celebrate by watching an
episode of Sesame Street in honor of Oscar the Grouch, or by sending one of
ourfree
Sesame Street online invitations for an upcoming party.
