You know, once upon a time Hump Day meant something to me. I’ve been retired for so long, I’m lucky I know what month it is let alone what day of the week. Well, that’s not entirely true. Since I still see my guys off to work in the mornings, I do know the difference between a work day and the weekend.
Continue reading “Kicking Back on a Hump Day”Fathers Matter
A belated Happy Father’s Day once more. Men are such an important part of family life. They are the examples that boys will grow up to be. Rodney Atkins put it so well in his song Watching You. But it’s not just the influence that a father has on his son.
Continue reading “Fathers Matter”Eat Your Vegetables – Not!
Way back in 2022, we had a little chat about National Eat Your Vegetables Day. In our house, vegetables are a touchy subject. I know we should eat more but darn it, burgers made from cows are so much better than just about any plant based thing.
Continue reading “Eat Your Vegetables – Not!”Perfect Father’s Day Grill
While this amazing supper is the perfect way to tell Dad we love you, it’s not what I’ll be serving on Father’s Day. After all, to get the pictures for posting and tweak everything just right, I needed to test drive the recipes long before Father’s Day.
Continue reading “Perfect Father’s Day Grill”Oh What a Beautiful World
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Today is National Photograph Nature Day. What better way to share this day than to sail away to Hawaii and Mexico. Enjoy!
Continue reading “Oh What a Beautiful World”And the Winner Is – Who Cares!
There is a reason why most women do not know a thing about sports. We simply don’t care. In the greater scheme of things, who wins the Super Bowl will not impact the world at large. Hubby finds my way of watchig sports amusing.
Continue reading “And the Winner Is – Who Cares!”Welcome to New Mexico
Today is National New Mexico Day. I suppose I really should talk about how awesome New Mexico is (and it really is) but I’d rather talk about something else if you don’t mind. Hubby and I have vacationed in New Mexico twice. We loved it both times.
Continue reading “Welcome to New Mexico”Warning: Klutz in the Kitchen
Some klutzy kitchen moves can be avoided. Eliminate the use of knives is one way. Order in is another. But then, if you are prone to spills, drops, blender disasters, there might not be much help for you. Except to spend more time in the kitchen. With practice comes perfection.
Continue reading “Warning: Klutz in the Kitchen”Remembering Dad’s Peanut Butter Cookies
Today is National Peanut Butter Cookie Day. We’ve talked Peanut Butter Cookies before, and I’ve even shared this very old recipe before. So today’s share is going to be more about the memories surrounding Peanut Butter Cookies.
Continue reading “Remembering Dad’s Peanut Butter Cookies”Saint Barnabas, the Nearly Forgotten Apostile
Today the Catholic Church celebrates the memory of Saint Barnabas. Although considered an apostle father and missionary, he was not one of the original twelve chosen by the Lord, Jesus. Traditionally he is counted as one of the 72 disciples and among the most respected in the first century Church.

You really don’t need to spend a ton of money or do anything fancy to celebrate the day of your birth. Hubby and I use to play that over the top celebration day. But now it’s more about quality time and just being together.
Continue reading “Sharing Belated Birthday Celebration”It’s Cocktail Time!
Every picture tells a story, don’t it? And this story is funny. At least I think so.
Continue reading “It’s Cocktail Time!”Donald Duck and Pirate Rides
Today is National Donald Duck Day. Gosh, we haven’t talked Donald since 2022. Hum, maybe we should. But then again maybe we shouldn’t.
Continue reading “Donald Duck and Pirate Rides”Mary’s Heart Most Pure
Immediately following the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Church celebrates the Immaculate Heart of Mary. These are two vastly different celebrations. So often non-Catholics are confused by the way Catholics hold Mary in such high regard. She is not to be worships, but rather to be admired and emulated.
Continue reading “Mary’s Heart Most Pure”The Sacred Heart of Jesus
The Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus – also the World Day of Prayer for the Sanctification of Priests – is celebrated on the Friday after the Solemnity of Corpus Christi. This suggests to us that the Eucharist (Corpus Christi) is none other than the Heart of Jesus himself.
