I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Education and Organization
ANOTHER LOOK UNLIMITED DAY asks us to take stock of our “stuff” and see what needs to go, what can be repurposed and what needs to be organized. It is easy to let our “stuff” get the best of us, but we have to show it who is in control.
For Fun
U.S. BOWLING LEAGUE DAY rolls right down the middle as we celebrate spares, strikes and turkeys. Three strikes will get you a turkey and a whole lotta points. Back in the 1800s, it would have gotten you a real turkey, which was a huge deal, seeing as how the bowling clubs made this offer around Thanksgiving.
On Today’s Menu…
WELSH RAREBIT DAY comes to us from across the pond. This cheesy toast was originally called rabbit – someone’s idea of humor – and soon came to be known as Welsh Rarebit. Melted cheese over toast makes the rabbit. It is supposed to go pretty good with ale. Add a poached egg and you have a golden buck. Add some bacon and it turns into a Yorkshire buck. Seems like a good day to try one.
