Friday’s Seafood Medley Bake
As a working man, Kiddo looks forward to Fridays. It’s the end of the workweek. Two glorious days off. All he need do is get beyond our Friday Night Catholic Supper.

Why can’t we have reason if we have prayer? What is so unreasonable about the idea of prayer? I ask because on the first Thursday of May, we have both a National Day of Prayer and a National Day of Reason.

Just as Saint Patrick’s Day brings out the Irish in all of us, Cinco de Mayo has a similar cultural effect. Instead of pints, we consume shots. Instead of Corned Beef, it’s tacos. Just as most of the newly born “Irish” of Saint Patty’s Day have no idea what they are celebrating, most think Cinco de Mayo is Mexico’s 4th of July.

Today is National Montana Day. There is much to be said about Montana. Big Sky Country. The 41st state to join the Union, Montana offers explorers both a rich history and exciting adventures. From the beauty of Glacier National Park, Yellowstone and the Little Big Horn, there is much to see and do.

Today is the first Sunday of May, and that means National Lemonade Day. Lemonade Day opens us up not only to the conversation about the history of that refreshing summertime drink, but the insanity that has taken hold in the form of over-enforcing small business regulation. I grew up in a time when nearly every kid in America earned their first bit of money by setting up a Lemonade Stand. Legal or not, it didn’t matter.

Today is May Day. On May 1, 1886, in Chicago and other cities, a major union demonstration took place in support of the eight-hour workday. The Chicago protests lasted several days. On May 4, the strike at the McCormick Reaper Plant in the city turned violent.

Sometimes a full dinner just seems to be too much. Yet a sandwich just isn’t striking a cord either. What to do? A salad, of course.

Today is National Shrimp Scampi Day. If you are thinking sautéed shrimp with lots of butter, you are right. In America, often shrimp entrees are called Scampi in our Italian Restaurants. Scampi over Pasta. Scampi Salad. Is Scampi Italian for Shrimp? Or is Scampi a way to cook Shrimp?

Wild Card Wednesday. One of my favorite days of the week. On Wild Card Wednesdays I serve up whatever strikes my fancy. Could make Pancakes for supper, or Filet Mignon with Brandy Cream and Peppercorns. I’ve even been known to order a pizza.

It’s Tuesday – and for some that means Taco Tuesday. According to Wikipedia, Taco Tuesday is an American custom of going out to eat tacos. Seems restaurants offer special deals on their Tacos much the same way bars have Happy Hour. Taco Tuesday, according to Wikipedia, is especially popular in the beach cities of Southern California with Fish Taco Specials every Tuesday night.

Today is National South Dakota Day. The territory that would one day be admitted into the Union was part of the Louisiana Purchase of 1803. The following year, Lewis and Clark established the first permanent American settlement at Fort Pierre.

Once upon a time, a common enemy would unite people. World War II is a great example of a common enemy – Germany united Russia and America to fight on the same side. This common bond was never better demonstrated to the press than the reenactment of East Meets West on the banks of the Elbe River.

If there is one kind of sausage we seem to have a lot of in our house, it’s got to be Chorizo. Fortunately for us, we live in a community that sprang from an agriculture based economy. In California today, agriculture communities are often Mexican or Portuguese communities.
