The Lord moves in mysterious ways. His ways are not always understood. Yet He has His reasons. Every human being in one way or another is called to Him.

Today is National Lobster Day. How convenient, since it is also a Friday. Lobsters are great served as part of a Surf and Turf ensemble. But on their own, unless you are dining at The Palms, the tails are way to small for a meal.

Oh my yes, please! Recently we came home to find a flyer on the door. It was from a girl scout who was going through the neighborhood selling cookies.

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.

Today is the Feast Day of Our Lady of Altagracia. In the Dominican Republic, it’s also a National Holiday. If every Feast Day were a holiday, then every day would be a holiday.

I have a dream. Standing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial before a crowd of over 250,000 marchers Martin Luther King Jr. shared his vision of the future.

Way back in 2018, one of my earliest posts was for Country Corned Beef Hash and Dirty Fried Eggs. Before I shared the recipe, I posted a picture on Face Book of my breakfast and got a lot of questions about Dirty Fried Eggs.

It’s hard to write hello to another beautiful day when I know so many out there, through no fault of their own, wonder what the heck is so great about today. It’s hard to think positively when my heart continues to break for people I have never met, and probably never will.

On the National Front, today is both Bootlegger’s Day and Hot Buttered Rum Day. Yeah, I know a great pairing of booze with booze. On the Church Calendar today is the Feast Day of Saint Anthony.

When I was a girl, we ate a lot of spaghetti. Mom made the sauce from scratch and let it simmer all day in a big cast iron skillet.

When selecting a Chuck Roast for supper, I like to think ahead. Groceries these days are expensive enough. If we can get a hunk of meat that will provide a nice Sunday Supper with plenty left over for later in the week, that’s always a good stretch of the food dollar.

More years ago than I care to admit, Hubby and I took a research vacation through Wyoming and Montana. I was interested in learning first-hand about the Indian Wars that raged through the Plain States at the end of the Civil War.

Twenty five years ago Hubby and I bought a simple stainless steal refrigerator to keep in the garage of our Las Vegas Home. When we returned to California, that same refrigerator came with us. It served as our only refrigerator for years.

Thus says the LORD:
Here is my servant whom I uphold, my chosen one with whom I am pleased, upon whom I have put my spirit; he shall bring forth justice to the nations.
Over the Moon Delicious!
