Now I will be honest with you, when I was revamping this meal, I seriously considered what has become my Go-to Ain’t That Pretty potatoes, aka my Faux Roasted Mushroom Tops.

As many of you have gathered by now, I’m a list maker, a planner. Making lists, having a plan, knowing what to expect from one day to the next is my security blanket. Most people who don’t know me intimately assume I’m a lot of things that I’m not.

I’ve been around more years than I care to count. In all that time, I’ve visited pretty much the entire Western United States, a few places in the Mid-West and South. But I’ve only called two states “home” for more than a vacation or lay-over to someplace else.

Today is National Pancake Day. My Dad made the best pancakes ever. And that’s a good thing. He worked construction. If you know anything about construction, you know it’s not a year-round job. The rains of winter signaled a tightening of the belt as construction work came to a crawl.

Today is National Muffin Day. When it came time to share a recipe for today, I will admit it was a struggle. Do I go with a traditional muffin or something wacky? In the end my traditional senses won out.

Have I mentioned that my guys are big burger fans? Saying that a guy likes burgers is redundant, isn’t it? Sure, girls like a good burger too. But guys could live of pizza, burgers and brew. The fairer sex needs more, much much more.

While the Universal Catholic Church will not celebrate the Feast Day of Saint Bernadette until April 16, in France they celebrate today. Typically a saint’s feast day is the day they died. It is not to honor their death, but rather to celebrate their new life with the Lord.

Today is a big day for the mattress, furniture and car industries. It’s Presidents Day – one of several three-day weekend when Americans are encouraged to buy new big ticket items. Yeah, it’s a strange American custom.

One of our favorite ways to start the day is with a simple, uncomplicated breakfast. Scrambled eggs, toast and fresh coffee immediately comes to mind.

Today is National Wisconsin Day. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I’m not really featuring National State Day as I have in the past. I did want to acknowledge Wisconsin and say thank you from the bottom of my heart. Wisconsin gave me Hubby. The love of my life.

If Valentine’s Day were any other day of the week, a South of the Border Tampiqueña Surf -n-Turf is just what Hubby would want for Valentine’s Day. However, today is Friday. In this Traditional Catholic Home there’s a No Turf rule on Fridays.

Today is Thursday. In our house we tend to turn to something Italian on Thursdays. How convenient, since today is also National Italian Food Day and Tortellini Day. Talk about the menu writing itself!

Oh what a beautiful day. Spring is trying to break through. The days are not as chilly, while the nights are still a bit cold. Perfect weather to get a jump on our spring cleaning projects and start thinking about resurrecting our garden.

Often non-Catholics are under the impression the Vatican dictates every aspect of Catholic Faith. While we do have our Dogma and Decrees, not everything acknowledged by the Church as true must be accepted by the faithful.

Every time Hubby and I do the shopping together as we wander through the produce section, I glance longingly at the Fingerling Potatoes. It seems they never fit into our menu plan. And there was only one solution.
