The Liberation of Paris

 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

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.

KISS AND MAKE UP DAY is the best part of arguing. Hammer out a solution at work, make amends with your friend or show your significant other a little affection as the argument gets put to bed.  And if there is no argument, go ahead and kiss anyway.

Who’s ready for a bargain?  SECONDHAND WARDROBE DAY will steer you to some gently used clothing that you can get for pennies on the dollar.  Thrift stores, consignment shops and other secondhand shops might just have that perfect outfit you’ve been looking for.

Our dessert of the day is on overload with NATIONAL BANANA SPLIT DAY.  We are talking 3 scoops of ice cream with 3 different toppings topped with nuts, whipped cream and cherries – all stuffed between a split banana.  Wow, I’ll have a little insulin with that please – but they are good.

  1. That is one “over-the-top” banana split. Here’s a friendly correction to Arthur Ashe’s bio. He was the first black man to win the U.S. Open. Althea Gibson won the womens championship in 1957 to become the first black female to win it.
