Burrrr ~ Sunshine ~ Picture of the Day ~ Driving in China ~ Easy Grands Biscuit Lunch ~ National Superhero Day


 
Good 32º clear ice on the barn roof morning.
 
 
Yesterday was sunny and we warmed to 78º. Dude was happy laying in the grass, as usual in nice weather!
 

 


Picture of the Day......
 
 
 

 
Interesting about driving in China...
Shared by my Brooklyn NY pal, Vivia....
Do you want to drive in China???

 
You are looking at is a photo from a drone that flew near the border with Hong Kong. It snapped a photo on the Beijing–Hong Kong–Macau Expressway. You are looking at 50-lanes that are filled with traffic to the brim.
 
 
 

Quick Easy Lunch
 
 
1 tube Pillsbury Grands Biscuits
8 thin slices of ham, or turkey, or roast beef, or any lunch meat
8 thin slices of any variety (your fav) cheese
 
Preheat oven to 350º. Lightly grease baking sheet with cooking spray, or oil, or butter.
Flatten each grand biscuit into a 6-8" round.

Place a slice of meat and cheese on each flattened round.
Fold the biscuit in half and seal the edges.

Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

National Superhero Day is observed annually on April 28.  This is a day to honor superheroes, both real and fictional.
Batman, Superman, Captain America, Wonder Woman, Iron Man, Hulk and Spiderman are just some of the superheroes whose names we recognize.  Even though they are fictional, these superheroes are great role models for our children.  They serve and protect while fighting evil.
Our real-life superheroes may not have super powers or wear capes, but they are also great role models who serve and protect while fighting evil.  Military personnel, police officers and firefighters are just a few of the heroes who protect us on a daily basis. 
HOW TO OBSERVE
Take your favorite superhero to lunch and say thank you for all they do. 
HISTORY
National Superhero Day was created in 1995 by Marvel Comics employees.
