Our freedoms aren't free and today is when we honor those highest sacrifices.
I think this year has many of us thinking about the big wars and how much people came together, worked together and raised up the world. And here we are in a world crisis ... protesting mask wearing, refusing to social distance, gathering in big crowds. It's our right ... right? Isn't a big, drunk pool party what Memorial Day is really about? It makes me sick. As HUMANS, we need to do better.
Switching off my never ending soap box ...
Cobb salad was a welcomed change. I LOVE a big, full salad with all the fixings. I made a hot cream cheese dip from all the things I had in the frig ... cheddar, bacon, onion, hot sauce, mozzarella. It was good. Kids made brownie sundays for dessert and I made another French, lemon Granny Cake. I have the right size pan now and I only used half the top syrup -- this one was even better. It was a fun evening.
Today is nothing, like most days lately. We're doing some house chores and maybe taking Duke for a park walk. There's a ball field park that is obviously closed with wooded trails around it that are crowded, but the sidewalks are usually empty. We'll see how hot it feels later.
I have some rescue calls to make, bills to pay. Regular kind of day.
I was asked to re-foster a snarky, adorable little dog. I declined because I don't need that this week -- she HATES men. Still looking for a senior foster.
We'll keep going on Band of Brothers. It never disappoints -- so well done.
Short and sweet. Have a great day. Stay well. Later gators.
