    Good mornin’, and Happy Friday, kids! It’s been quite a week indeed! I think we need to go with volume after the fun we’ve been having with the Dough-boy and Cackles. They remind me of the movie……..Catch Me if You Can! Pinning them down is like nailing Jell-O to the wall. Carpe your coffee!

    I saw this article and thought it was a joke, until I found a bunch more about it. Olympic medals look like caca a week after they were awarded. When I searched about this, it is apparently not the first time either. There were numerous articles about the same thing from several previous Olympics.

    National Passion Fruit Day – never ate any

    National Rice Pudding Day haven’t made this. In years. I like it with raisins.

    National Book Lovers Day – I know there are a lot of us out there

    National Veep Day – I hesitated to put this up, since I don’t want to think about her anytime today. Or tomorrow.

      Mama used to put butter and sugar, and raisins, in leftover rice and we called it rice pudding.

      My two oldest granddaughters love books. They love to play outside and when they come in, you will find them on the couch reading. I think the 4 yr old will probably be the same and I sure hope the baby boy will, too.

      Morning, czarina! I love the rice pudding that you bake in the oven. Definitely a book lover!

      Good day, Czarina! Be fun to see how many U.S. Veeps we can name from the 20th and 21st centuries. Haven’t a clue who was Woodrow Wilson’s Veep. Harding’s is easy since he died in office and his Veep became Pres…Coolidge. Same with JFK. But who was Teddy Roosevelt’s…maybe Taft? Or FDR’s in 1933?

      Unfortunately, I hardly read books anymore. Just prefer to read items online. One of my cousins had over 6,000 books, mostly history-related, in his home library. Even though listening to audio books sorta drives me nuts, I love to hear professional actors like David Suchet (Hercule Poirot on TV), who has beautiful Bible readings on YouTube.

      Would passion fruit taste OK in rice pudding? Mom used to use raisins.

      Czarina,

      I believe “Hawaiian Punch” fruit drink contains passion fruit juice. If you’ve ever tasted that then you’ve had some “passion fruit” flavor sneaked into your diet.

      Along with a large amount of sugar.

      Have a good weekend.

    Mornin’ All. Another beautiful day here. I understand Trump is coming to Montana for a rally today and the weather should be good. I am not sure where it is supposed to be, though.

    My kids are coming over this afternoon. So, I have some straightening left to do and then I will make veg soup. My granddaughters may get to play with some new little girls who moved in near me. They are in the same age range and seem very sweet. We will see how it goes.

    Hope everyone has fun today.

    This is disheartening and disgusting at the same time. Of course a California watchdog doesn’t want to make paying for child sex a felony because it would cost too much. Sheesh!
