Say Happy Birthday with Kremówka Papieska
Never, ever did I imagine I would live to see an American selected as Pope of the Roman Catholic Church. When I was born Pope Pius XII was the Bishop of Rome.

Today is Nutty Fudge Day. It’s also less than a month from a very big deal birthday for me. Since Hubby wants to take me on a wine train in the Napa Valley to celebrate, I want to look my best for a sassy old broad. So fudge is out.

Today is National Washington (State) Day, Shrimp Day and a beautiful Spring Saturday. I don’t know what spring is like in your neck of the woods, but here in the low-lands and rolling hills of California’s Gold Country, Spring Festivals are in full swing.

Okay, maybe not that far back, but you get the general idea. I’ve been so busy lately that I didn’t plan a proper Friday Share for today. Rather than skip a day (today marks 1,510 consecutive days together), I thought I’d reach back a few years and shake the cobwebs off a recipe we’ve shared before. More on that in a moment.

As I prepared for today’s share, I found myself deep in prayer. Dear Lord, I’ve never suceeded at making New England Hot Dog Rolls before, please let this time be a charm. Saint Honoré, patron saint of baking, do what you can to guide me.
