Yesterday was over the top exciting. I worked on my taxes...organizing everything from the files. GROAN....... how I hate doing this!!!

My daughter Kristen, said she saw some coffee mugs that made her laugh. She told me about them so I ordered two and had them sent to Alex and Jack.

They also have mugs that say the same about wives, husbands, sons, etc. I got mine at Esty:

National Cereal Day

It’s National Cereal Day! Cereal is the most popular breakfast food in America, but that wasn’t always the case. Up until the 1860s, most people ate eggs, bacon, and sausage every morning. Cereal emerged as a healthier alternative at the end of the 19th century.
The invention of one of the most famous brands of cereal was an accident. In 1877, two brothers named John Harvey Kellogg and Will Keith Kellogg were experimenting with food made with boiled wheat. They left a batch out overnight and returned to find it stale. Instead of throwing it away, they rolled it out and discovered that each wheat berry formed its own flake. They tried the same process with corn, and created the first dry breakfast cereal, which we now know as Kellogg’s Corn Flakes!
Many people start their day with a bowl of cereal. Wholegrain cereals are an excellent source of fiber, iron, and B vitamins. Celebrate National Cereal Day with a bowlful of your favorite brand!
