Good mornin’, Lucille! Beautiful fall foliage pictures, but you might want to find out when they moved those Wasatch mountains to MS. Coffee’s ready, ma’am, and I’ll bet you will have some cups to match today’s coffee making machine.

Pumpkin Whoopie Pies
By Ivy Odom
It’s no secret that Southerners are enthusiastic about all things pumpkin dessert. In fact, we can’t seem to get enough of it. With pumpkin in mind, we’ve created the ultimate fall treat: pumpkin whoopie pies.

Good mornin’, and Happy Taco Tuesday, y’all! Time to take a trip back to a time that was a little saner than crazy time we’re in today. A time when our fridge, range top, oven and carpet all were the same color. Keep your head on a swivel and Carpe your coffee this last week of nonsense.

Good mornin’, Menage! I knew someone would come through with the color coordination. IIRC, the big 3 were Harvest Gold, Coppertone, and Avocado green. Am I missing any others? We were a Coppertone family. Dark colors in a small kitchen. Good combo.

I kind of like this pink kitchen! One house I lived in had pink countertops (they were Contact paper). That wasn’t lovely.

You might say pink countertops are why I became a faux painter and opened a business of my own.
The lady who built our log cabin with her husband loved pink, wallpaper, and cutesy bear collections. The countertops in the kitchen were Pepto Bismal pink.
We put all the money we had into buying that cabin before it sold, and we had two house payments for about a year (9/11 happened!).
I taught myself various painting techniques before going to Atlanta for classes. One of the first things I did was paint the cabinets and, believe it or not, those pink countertops. No one except us ever knew they had been painted.
We also had perfectly good oak wood flooring, but in those days it was often made with those fake plastic pegs in the boards. To my artistic eye, it looked like I had polka dot floors.
So, I painted the floors to look like old, reclaimed wood floors. No one ever knew that was paint either. Took me two months of grueling work down on my knees.
Those days are over.

Pink kitchens were started by Mamie Eisenhower. My father painted our refrigerator pink, then later back to white, at my mother’s request. The countertops were pink and grey Formica. His station wagon was pink and black.

The NYT is going after prominent pro-Trump commentators. They are apparently threatening to pressure YouTube to demonetize them because of “misinformation” that Media Matters has earmarked. Here is the tweet from Tucker Carlson, but I have also seen the same sort of thing sent to Ben Shapiro and others.

Dodger Fans Celebrate in East Los Angeles Despite Police Presence After Game 3 Victory
EAST LOS ANGELES, Oct. 29 (KNN) – Los Angeles Dodger fans gathered in East Los Angeles at Olympic and Atlantic boulevards around 9 p.m. after the team won against the New York Yankees in the World Series Monday night. The KNN video from the location shows a crowd waving Dodger flags, cars doing donuts in the intersection, and expressing joy despite the police presence. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department units and California Highway Patrol officers blocked intersections to try to prevent fans from celebrating recklessly and attempting to possibly contain the celebration.
