Today is National Eat What You Want Day. It’s a free pass to indulge. So what’s up in my kitchen? A Roast Dinner? Where are the cupcakes? Roast dinners are a lot harder to come by than you think.

I'm a wife, mother, grandmother and avid home cook.I believe in eating healthy whenever possible, while still managing to indulge in life's pleasures.
Washington State and the Tastes of Mexico
What can I say except “Lucy, you got some ‘splaining to do.” National Washington State Day and Mexican Food? Really? Yes, really.

All I can say is it’s a good thing today is Tuesday. It’s also Butterscotch Brownie Day. Great for me, not so much for Hubby who is not a fan of Butterscotch. I like to suck on Butterscotch Candies and drizzle butterscotch over ice cream. A Butterscotch Brownie deserved it’s own special day.

Today is National Have a Coke Day. I actually had to look that one up – you see, when I was a girl if someone said “Have a Coke” they didn’t necessarily mean Coca-Cola so much as a soft drink. There was 7-Up and Coke – the generic name brads for clear and colored sodas. So for the record, National Have a Coke Day is in reference to the All-American beverage, Coca-Cola.

Good morning and welcome to the 5th Sunday of the Easter Season 2023. Has the Lord blessed you today? If you are awake, the answer is yes. If you have a roof over your head, someone who loves you for you and can put food on the table – you have been quadruple blessed.

Today is National Play Outside Day. It seems that whoever it is (those mysterious unknown powers that be) who decide these things have designated the first Saturday of every month National Play Outside Day. I find that amazing. Growing up, we would have needed a National Stay Inside Day since every day was a day to play outside.

Welcome to the 5th day of May – better known as Cinco de Mayo. It is a celebration of Mexican Pride, Mexican Culture and Mexican Cuisine. You would think it were their 4th of July, but it isn’t. As a matter of fact, Cinco de Mayo isn’t even a major holiday in Mexico.

It’s been a while since I’ve had a good rant. I know I’ve been sharing my faith daily in both little ways (the passages at the end of each post – most are part of our daily readings), and in big ways, acknowledge days of great religious significance. For me personally, today’s recognition as National Day of Prayer really doesn’t affect me. Every day is a day of prayer.
Continue reading “The First Thursday in May”The Feast of Two Saintly Apostles
Today we celebrate the Feast Day of two Apostles, Saint Philip and Saint James the Lesser. Often Saint James is called the brother of our Lord in Protestant teachings, but not in Catholic tradition. The confusion, according to the Catholic Church, stems from the fact that James’ mother was either a sister or close relative of the Blessed Virgin, and for that reason, according to Jewish custom, he was called the brother of Jesus.

Here it is, the second day of May. This year really seems to be flying right along. Today is World Tuna Day, Foster Care Day, Life Insurance Day, Truffle Day and best of all; Teacher Appreciation Day. Can you believe this is the first time I’ve given a shout out to Teacher Appreciation Day?

Today is International Workers Day, Loyalty Day and most importantly, the Feast Day of Saint Joseph the Worker.

This share is a long time coming and only half complete. Hum, maybe I should explain a bit more.

Tails or no tails. So often that is the question. From a pruely presentation prespective, tails on is always a dramatic statement. But when it comes to dining, no tails is a much cleaner approach to eating shrimp.

I love the fact that both National Brave Heart Day and Super Hero Day are celebrated together. It is almost as though they were one and the same. In many respects, they are.

Today is National Prime Rib Day. Now I know what you are thinking, Italian Mac and Cheese is a far cry from a beautiful Prime Rib. And you would be right. While Hubby and I are far from rich, we manage and can even indulge for the right reasons when it comes to the food budget.
