So often, when someone passes away, we say things like “You’ll see them again in Heaven” or “You know they are looking down on you.” These are comforting thoughts. I’ve said these same things. My mother, my brother, my daughter and now my sister are no longer with us. In my mind, I see them all together again in Heaven.

As Hubby and I changed into our Halloween Costumes, I reminded him that November 1 we needed to attend Mass. It was an obligation outside of Sundays. Even to the non-believer, the fact that Sundays, all Sundays throughout the year, are deemed Holy Days of Obligation comes as no surprise. The faithful are expected to attend Mass. There is no need to explain why.

Halloween Night takes some special planning. If you have young children who are going out Trick or Treating, it’s hard to get them to sit through a big meal. When kiddo was younger, it was a night for Corn Dogs. Quick, easy and out the door.

Is there an abundance of chicken roasters right now? A few months back, I noticed that the Deli Rotisserie Chicken had doubled in price. But lately the market seems to be running specials on whole chickens. Which is good. Roast Chicken sure hits the comfort button this time of year.

While I realize that the true focus of Christian Faith must always be on Jesus Christ, I do wish we knew more about the Apostles. Each was chosen by Jesus for a particular reason. If we knew more about them, perhaps we might understand better why each was selected. What did they have to offer? And we just might be able to see a bit of ourselves in them.

Today is National Navy Day, not to be confused with the US Navy’s actual birthday, which is October 13. So why is Navy Day not celebrated on the Navy’s birthday? Navy Day was established on October 27, 1922 by the Navy League of the United States. It is in recognition of Theodore Roosevelt’s Birthday.

Today is National Tennessee Day. We’ve talked about the Volunteer State, its roll in the Civil War, the strange laws that are still on their books. I wasn’t sure we could say much more about Tennessee in this, our 5th year to celebrate National Tennessee Day.

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.

Many moons ago, Hubby, Kiddo and I called Las Vegas Home. It seems a lifetime ago, and in many ways, that’s true. As you can imagine, there are an insane number of Italian Restaurants in Las Vegas, especially away from the bright lights of Las Vegas Boulevard.

It’s been a while since we talked Sunday Supper just for the sake of family time. We sure don’t miss a Special Sunday Supper, but we haven’t talked Sunday Supper for no reason in a while. And actually, even though today is Sunday, this recipe isn’t for today. Maybe next Sunday. Or even tomorrow.

Yah, I know yesterday we had Fruitcake and now it’s another dessert. I cannot help how the National Days are lining up this time of the year. Or is it that Hubby and I are watching our figures now that winter is coming and we aren’t as active.

Among other things such as Chicken and Waffles Day. Chicken and Waffles has an amazing history. That said, I don’t care much for syrup on my chicken or waffles without syrup. If you do, great – you’ll love my Perfect Midnight Meal.
