Happy Monday. I hope your week is grand.

Today is: World Tuna Day

I love a good tuna sandwich.
What do you put in yours?
Mayonnaise?
Miracle Whip?
Sweet pickles?
Celery?
Onions?
Anything else?

....and it’s National Truffles Day
I have never had a truffle. Have you?
If so, is it worth all the fuss?

Were you around when Burt Reynolds was the Cosmopolitan magazine centerfold?
If so, did you see it?
I had just had my second baby, and all the moms were passing the magazine around the hospital.

Do you Twitter?

I always say DH should have been an exotic animal vet in a zoo.
If you could have a do over in your career, what would it be?

What’s on the schedule for you this week?
Any appointments?
Any plans to do something just for fun?
Something you’ve been putting off?

What commercial on TV do you hate the most?

Today’s funny:
Why did the Truffle get invited to the party? Cause he's a fungi!

Who knew that there were actually truffle jokes?

Happy, safe, week, y’all, and remember the mothers in your life next Sunday.

Celery? <---- If I have it
Onions? <---- Finely minced
Anything else? <---- Maybe a bit of Dijon mustard

....and it’s National Truffles Day
I have never had a truffle. Have you?
It was probably truffle oil in a restaurant dish, but I don't remember the details.
If so, is it worth all the fuss?
No.
Were you around when Burt Reynolds was the Cosmopolitan magazine centerfold?
Yes, I was.
If so, did you see it?
Yes, I bought the issue.
I had just had my second baby, and all the moms were passing the magazine around the hospital.

Do you Twitter?
No, I don't.
I always say DH should have been an exotic animal vet in a zoo.
If you could have a do over in your career, what would it be?
I would be a librarian because I love books and read voraciously.

Go out to dinner.
Something you’ve been putting off?
How much time have you got?
What commercial on TV do you hate the most?
Liberty Mutual - all of them.
Mayim Bialik for some worthless overpriced snake oil supplement ("More brain performance - yes, please!")
The car commercial with the entitled rich mom rolling up her car windows while her daughter's screechy, out-of-tune school orchestra plays Strauss's "Thus Spake Zarathustra" (the theme from "2001").
The Charmin bears.


Thanks, gentlearts!

....and it’s National Truffles Day
I have never had a truffle. Have you? Chocolate ones, yes. Mushrooms...I don't know.
If so, is it worth all the fuss?

Were you around when Burt Reynolds was the Cosmopolitan magazine centerfold? Yes
If so, did you see it? Yes. What a disappointment because it was all hyped up that he was naked, made it sound so X rated, to find out he was naked but not in the way it was made out to be. He had something right in front of his private parts. I was young and got a lesson in MSM hype, that's for sure.
I had just had my second baby, and all the moms were passing the magazine around the hospital.

Do you Twitter? No

I always say DH should have been an exotic animal vet in a zoo.
If you could have a do over in your career, what would it be? I was blessed to be in the field of my interest in a way I hadn't thought of.

What’s on the schedule for you this week? I have a memorial service at church tomorrow evening, and a lab appointment on Friday. At home the rest of the week with chores needing to be completed.
Any appointments?
Any plans to do something just for fun?
Something you’ve been putting off? Yes, hoping to get it done. Been doing in small doses but it is weighing on my shoulders and needs to be completed. Why can't I just DO IT and finish it? (Hint: End of Life paperwork).

What commercial on TV do you hate the most? I don't watch TV much but will say anything with songs of my past that have such emotional memories for me being used in ignorant commercials for products. Gain laundry products come to mind. They are using "Maniac" from Flashdance. Sacreligious I say!

Today’s funny:
Why did the Truffle get invited to the party? Cause he's a fungi!

Who knew that there were actually truffle jokes?

Happy, safe, week, y’all, and remember the mothers in your life next Sunday. Mine are all gone, I am "head of the food chain" now with only one mother behind me/in my life (my daughter).

Happy Monday. I hope your week is grand.
Let's make it a good one.
Today is: World Tuna Day

I love a good tuna sandwich.
What do you put in yours?
I don't like tuna so I put chicken or ham or beef with mustard or bbq or other sauce, dill pickle slices, cheese, etc. in my sandwiches. Tonight I made a sandwich with sliced roast chicken breast, Swiss cheese, tomato, pickle slices and a light bbq sauce. It was good.

....and it’s National Truffles Day
I have never had a truffle. Have you?
Chocolate truffles, yes.
If so, is it worth all the fuss?
Chocolate, yes.

Were you around when Burt Reynolds was the Cosmopolitan magazine centerfold?
If so, did you see it?
Yep. Familiar with the content. If I recall correctly, he went on the Tonight Show with Carson the night before to troll the situation for humor and say he thought it was ridiculous. So there must have been advance press without naming who was photographed.

Do you Twitter?
Don't tweet.

If you could have a do over in your career, what would it be?
I have no complaints.

What’s on the schedule for you this week?
Get one of the vehicles inspected and re-registered.
Any appointments?
Dentist and doctor, for check ups.
Any plans to do something just for fun?
Always. A couple lunches out. This and that.
Something you’ve been putting off?
I don't procrastinate, I have things on the back burner due to time constraints.

What commercial on TV do you hate the most?
Insurance: especially medical and auto warranty and home repairs. At least the commercials make broadcast TV free.

Thanks, gentlearts.
