    Labor day Thursday 227!

    Since this is the last huge holiday for the summer We are going to have a giant picnic!

    In the U.S. we celebrate the workers of the country -Kinda like May Day - with out the communism!

    It's a three day weekend with lots of food, fun and relaxing.

    Not to be totally void of the reason for the celebration, take a second to remember all the people who have worked to make your life a little bit easier!
    We owe them that much!

    DOTD?

    Lemon Drops, Fresh Squeezed Lemonade, Limeade and my favorite- Watermelon agua fresca! It means fresh water in spanish. It's pureed watermelon, water and sugar or sweetner. It has chunks of watermelon cut up to float in the final mix!

    And for the grill?

    Ribs, Dogs, burgers, salmon steaks.

    Potato, macaroni and green salads, not to mention a greek olive salad with feta in it....Dang, now I'll have to make some for the house!

    Ambrosia or fruit salad for dessert - Cold fruit ice pops to keep everyone cool!

    ---------

    We have lawn bowling, badmiton, volleyball and softball to play.

    I wanted lawn darts, but that Orc is not to be trusted.

    The pool and hot tub are open!

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    Horn IN on? --- Never!

    Wish we take up a Kollek-shin and fly your butt out to Findlay ...
    complete with your Thursday's Set-Up.

    THAT would give "the Locals" sumpthin to remember!

    Even though I won't be one of the lucky ones enjoying Labor Day at Findlay, I can do my best to spice up the picnic here. Found a great local shop that makes the best hot salsa that I've ever had, so from San Diego here's some hot salsa and fresh made corn chips.

    Richard, the watermelon agua fresca sounds great! I'll have to have one.

    Today is national toasted marshmallow day! S'mores for breakfast anyone?

    As for Labor Day weekend, I'm headed off to Monterey for the weekend, meeting up with some friends and taking in the Monterey Bay Aquarium. I could watch those otters playing in the water for hours. Must see the pengers too

    Yes! The Monterey Bay Aquarium is known for their otter sanctuary. They're also wild in the area. One year I was having a luxurious breakfast at a restaurant overlooking the ocean and watching the otters cavorting in the waves. They are SO cute!
