For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16
Tool Time
NATIONAL TAPE MEASURE DAY extends as long as we need it to. We have been measuring things since…well…for a long time. Celebrate this invaluable tool today and count how many you have.
Belly up to the Bar
NATIONAL GRAND MARNIER DAY brings us a nice after dinner drink that will ease you into the night. This orange infused cognac not only makes for a delicious nightcap but will add a little citrus to your recipes.

How about a little comfort with NATIONAL MAC AND CHEESE DAY? The original Kraft is hard to beat, but there are a lotta varieties out there including some pretty fancy dishes. My wife is the official Mac & Cheese chef at our house, and it always turns out delicious.
