It’s National Have a Coke Day. That would be great, if I liked coke. I don’t. In all fairness to coke, I’m really not a fan of sodas to begin with. We didn’t drink sodas as a kid.

A Different Kind of Burger
Many, many moons ago, you could find Johnsonville Bratwurst Burgers in the frozen food case of the grocery store. I don’t know if they don’t make them anymore or if the stores around here don’t bother to carry them. Regardless, I sure can’t find them. And that simply will not do.

Although the calendar might not officially agree, Spring has finally arrived in our neck of the woods. The first sign of Spring is how beautiful a drive in the country can be. You know spring has arrived when the fields are green, the poppies are in bloom and mamma cows with their precious calves can be spotted grazing everywhere.

They call me mellow yellow. Great, now I’ve got Donovan singing in my head! Guess being a fan of the Hurdy Gurdy Man is letting my age show a bit. But not as much as his. Donovan released a new album last year, at the ripe old age of 76. Good for you!

Today is National Retro Day. The name alone can mean different things to different people. In it’s original inception, Retro Day was created to encourage us to pick a point in time before the world was plugged in. Imagine what the world was like before the internet and instant news. Maybe even try unplugging for the day.

Every year for Christmas Hubby received an Omaha Steak Package as a gift. You know, the ones that come with an assortment of goodies. One year it was Chicken Breasts and Filet Mignon Steaks with a couple of sides. Another year it was the Steaks and Pork Chops with various desserts.

After taking last year off from National Greasy Food Day, we’re back again with another yummy burger. Not all burgers are dripping with grease. But when we think of Greasy Foods, we tend to think unhealthy. Let’s face it, Burgers rank right up there in the don’t eat this every night of the week category.

Yeah, I know, it’s Columbus Day. So where are all the celebrations? The history? The purely Italian dishes? Like so many things in America, Columbus Day means a day off for some, long hours for others and great deals on bedroom furniture. It makes no sense.

Today is National Cheeseburger Day. When you hear the word “Cheeseburger” does your mind wander? I know mine does, especially now, with the recent passing of the greatest beach bum that ever lived – Jimmy Buffett.

Has summer ended in your neck of the woods? Are schools open, and family summer vacations fading into memory? It seems the school year begins earlier and earlier. But then, summer vacation also begins earlier and earlier. In America over half of the states mandate that a school year consist of 180 days.

Today is National Junk Food Day. No offense to Diners and their down home cooking, but diner food isn’t typically your healthiest choice for dinner. Oh sure, you could order a salad with dressing on the side and a glass of water, but really? It’s a Diner!

Depending upon who you listen to, today could be National Veggie Burger Day (no, thank you) or International Ketchup Day. While not my favorite condiment, I can work with that.

As Kiddo put his dinner plate in the sink, he announced to no one in particular that “This was the best burger I have ever had in my entire life”. Wow, considering how many burgers he has had, that’s saying plenty.

I love the City by the Bay. I miss the city that stole my heart so long ago. While I am very much a card-caring Republican Conservative, that hippie teen is still a part of me. And that part of me will forever love San Francisco.
