    Bloomsday – for anyone who read the book. Or maybe for those of us who didn’t…

      Morning czarina! Fudge – but only if it’s homemade Hershey’s fudge, like my mother made.

        I’m going to find that recipe.

        Homemade fudge is such a treat when it’s made by a skilled fudge maker.

          I warn you – it seems like a simple recipe, but not simple to execute correctly. Mine is either hard as a rock, or runny. Getting the temp right isn’t easy. My mother got it right every time, and I don’t know how she did it.

            My husband makes that recipe, never fails at it. I’ve never attempted it. There were times the kids wanted it, and he told them the weather was wrong, it wouldn’t set. Never understood that either, but he either played his cards very close when he didn’t want to make it, or he just knew.

            I met him when he was 18, and he’d already mastered it.

            Also, he know if the temp is right with some in a bowl of water or something? I don’t remember exactly, it’s been a long time. But I do remember him using a bowl of water and doing something with it several times until it was just right.

      I love fudge, all kinds, chocolate, peanut butter, and whatever.

      Kudos for Universal Father’s Week. I am seeing so much support for fathers on YouTube videos.

      Pray for the African children.

      I don’t know what Bloomsday is. I have never read it.

        Bloomsday is the annual literary celebration of James Joyce’s 1922 modernist masterpiece, Ulysses. Observed every June 16th, the date marks the exact day in 1904 when the entire novel is set, chronicling an ordinary day in the life of its protagonist, Leopold Bloom.

        The book is known to be virtually unreadable.

          I read a small amount of a James Joyce book once and bailed on it. Long time ago.

          I am currently reading Cannery Row by Steinbeck, and really enjoying it. That man can write. We don’t have voices like that now! I don’t know how I missed it before.

    Good afternoon All. We are in the middle of June and it has warmed up a mite. Actually a pretty nice day. I was talking to a yardman who said he has been here 20 years and this is the wettest weather he has ever seen here. It is kinda smelling like it might want to rain here soon.

    Hope you enjoy your day.

    If you’ve never seen this guy on X before, he was the aide that carried the nuclear “football” for Bill Clinton. He has lots of Hillary stories.
