Today is National Spanish Paella Day. In all honesty, it’s been years since I whipped out my Paella Pan. I know it’s collecting dust somewhere around here.

Tuesday’s Warm Embrace
In our house, Tuesday night’s dinner typically means something we can have with a salty margarita. If my guys had it there way, we’d rotate between Burritos, Enchiladas and Tacos. Not that I can blame them, those are among my favorites, too.

What it is about Southern Food Day that makes me crave fried chicken. I know, there’s more to Southern Cooking than just fried chicken. Yet it ranks right up there among my favorite things to eat.

Don’t ask why. I have no idea but recently while making Fried Chicken in the oven, a song by one of my favorite Country performers kept running through my head. We’ve all done that I’m sure, have a thought and suddenly a song is playing in your head.

It seems fitting that the Way of Saint James and Scallop Day share the same date. After all, the Scallop Shell is a symbol of the Way of Saint James.

Welcome to my kitchen on this amazing Saturday. Hubby and I plan to spend a little time this weekend shoring up the raised beds in our garden. It had been our intention to build all new beds this year. The ones we have now have seen better days. I’m not sure why we chose to make the best of what we have for one more year. But we did.

Today is National Parents’ Day, Vanilla Ice Cream Day and Gorgeous Grandma Day. We’ve talked about Parents’ Day before, and we will again, but not this time around.

Let’s face it, dogs know a thing or two about the value of a stick. As does a child. Simple pleasures in life are often the most rewarding. That said; Something on a Stick Day isn’t so much the stick as it is foods that are served on a stick.

Growing up, without a doubt my favorite Sunday tradition had to be when Dad made fried chicken. It was the crispness of the skin, the amazing gravy and all the trimmings that made a down-home staple such a hit.

The first Columbus Day celebration in America took place on October 12, 1792, when the Columbian Order of New York held an event to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the historic landing. Ironically enough, Columbus never “discovered” North America. His first landing was probably in the Bahamas.

Life is always changing. Two years ago Walk in the Park Day had all sorts of strange restrictions. We were in lock down. People only went out when absolutely necessary. While walks were encouraged, local parks were closed.

Today is National Hearts of Artichoke Day. Now I must admit, my original plan was to completely ignore Hearts of Artichoke Day. After all, I’ve done 3 postings since 2019 singing the praises of Artichoke Hearts. Just how much is left to say?

Today is special on so many levels. It’s National Popcorn Day. I swear, this day was created just for my Pops, who happens to live on Popcorn. And today just happens to be his birthday. Hum, I wonder if the Powers that Be had a hand in National Popcorn Day and Pop’s birthday being one and the same.
