Happy Easter!!
Hope everyone has a nice, relaxing Sunday, and enjoy a peep show or two.
But the good kind of peep show.
Not the bad kind of peep show.
Have a wonderful day!!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
It’s awesome that we celebrate a snake wrangler by drinking.
Remember: this is quite possibly the only holiday where full-blown alcoholism can go undetected.
Have a good one!!
Another Year, Gone
Thank goodness!
Tonight marks the beginning of a new year. Not sure why that is a cause for a party, but whatever. I have two parties to attend and can’t get out of either one, so I will make sure to drink water and enjoy the spectacular sloshing that people will be undertaking. At least that will be fun for me.
Believe it or not, I saw this happen once. And no, I wasn’t the perpetrator.
Take care this evening, be responsible and watch out for the idiots.
And have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Heartfelt Thanks
Today we celebrate Veteran’s Day.
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. --John 15:35
The most prominent debt we owe, is the gratitude we owe them.
HOOOAH!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE USMC!!!
God Bless them for their service, duty, and sacrifice. SEMPER FI!!!
Girlie Drink of the Week
First up is Hurricane Sandy, and I have been sending prayers up to my East Coast friends. Next, we have Halloween, and my girls just informed me this past weekend what they wish me to do for their costumes. After that, we have Día de los Muertos which coincides with All Saints Day, which means I have a cake to make for the feast of All Saints and prepare a few gifts for friends to take to their loved ones’ graves. Though I don’t observe Day of the Dead, I help my friends with decorations. Oh, and lest I forget, after that it’s All Souls Day, which means going to Mass and praying for those departed as well and honoring their resting place.
By the time those three days are over, I will feel like one of these.
Zombie
- 1 oz pineapple juice
- 1 oz. orange juice
- 1 oz. lime juice
- 2 oz. light rum
- 1 oz. dark rum
- ½ oz. apricot brandy
- 1 tsp. sugar
- ½ oz. Bacardi 151, or other strong rum
Pour all ingredients except the Bacardi 151 into a shaker with ice. Shake well, and pour into an old fashioned glass with ice. Pour the Bacardi 151 to float on top, and garnish with orange slice, mint and cherry.
Too bad I can’t hand these out during Trick-or-Treating
Hooker of the Week
UPDATE BY AGGIE BECAUSE I CAN AND I WANT EYE CANDY TOO:
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!!
Enjoy your day, and give a thought as to why you can
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!!!
Y’all may not get as much hype as Moms do, but you deserve that, and more.
Vader had a tough job, ya know.
Have a wonderful day, and make sure to reign like the Sith Lords you wish to be
Happy 237th Birthday, U.S. Army!!
On this day, in 1775, the Massachusetts Provincial Congress appealed to the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia to assume authority for the New England army, because as we all know, THE BRITISH WERE COMING!!! So, allegedly at the behest of John Adams, Congress voted to take the NE Army and conscript it for use in all colonies (though no written record exists for that vote). However, they did vote to “to bring in a draft of rules and regulations for the government of the Army,” thus, the birth of our U. S. Army.
Being an Army wife, I am partial to this military birthday, for it is two-fold.
Today is also Flag Day!! On this day, the Second Continental Congress passed the Flag Resolution of 1777, which officially adopted the flag of our new found country.
When I arrived in Texas, it was the summer of 1976. Everything was red, white, and blue, and I thought this was the most color-coordinated country in the world. My dad explained that we were celebrating a very important birthday, and so began my love affair with History.
Long may she wave!!!
We Remember
To those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, thank you.
Words are inadequate, but our gratitude is never ending.
