Here’s a couple of comments, thanks

I just watched the news. Does anyone else think it is ironic and disgraceful that our olympic teams uniforms (Ralph Lauren) are all made in China? You would think we could keep that money in the U.S.A. The uniforms are also ugly.
I haven’t seen the uniforms yet but do agree it’s ironic that they’re made in China, especially with the economy they way it is now. Grandma Annette has always been a big proponent of Buy American which actually is a big thing. In fact if everyone would only buy American for just 1 month, it would do remarkable things for our country! Sadly that’ll never happen though as people seem to care until it affects them. We’re even guilty as we buy french milled soap! It’s just so good.
Now to politics, God Bless the U.S.A. There, that’s it! I’m sure my constant rantings have offended some of you so I’m really going to try hard to stop, so there ya go, that’s all for the day.
Yesterday the boys had a friend over and Mom took them all to the pool. I had a long call in the am and then had to get a new phone. Boy does technology advance fast. My new phone is incredible. It seems to do just about everything. That right there is one of the main problems with us as a society. We advance technologically faster than we do mentally! We can’t mange our own inventions. Think about it. Oh well, time to move on.
Aunt Robi reminded me of Mom’s tuna salad. It was sooo good. I also remember chipped beef on toast, goolash and those english muffin, cream cheese, tomato sandwiches she used to make. For today, let’s hear about some of your favorite meals your Mom made for you when you were growing up! Maybe we can do a family cookbook! That’d be fun. First I would include Grandma Dixie’s blueberry pie which the misses inadvertently told her not to make me when we were there for the reunion a few weeks ago. I’m still not over that one!
Today I’m in Boulder from about 12 until 4 or 4:30 and the misses has a PTA meeting at 3 and then book club at 7pm. Meanwhile the boys and I will organize our fishing gear for tomorrow. We’re headed up to Eagle to Sylvan Lake where we took Grandpa Bob and Grandma Eleanor a few years ago and it rained hard on us. They just stocked the lake a few days ago. Hopefully we’ll catch something.
The news just said Denver is running the 4th most political ads in the country. It’s no wonder we can’t get away from it! Don’t worry, I’m staying away from it, just thought you should know why it’s so much in our minds.
Have a great day and let’s hear about those favorite meals. In fact, if you can, post the recipe with your comment and we’ll start to compile them. If it’s easier, you may send it in a separate email to Lori1654@cocmast.net. We expect everyone to participate, even if it’s a cocktail recipe (that’s for you Aunt Robi, ha ha)
Have a great day,
As as I said before the trips to Gma and Gpas were the best summers! Also mom’s tuna salad is a good summer memory! Just gotta say you have some funny boys – as they say “outta the mouths of babes†– it’s priceless!
