experiencing pleasure
to help deal with what may come

Cooking Tip
Soak peeled, sliced potatoes in water for 1 hour before baking to achieve maximum crispiness. Soaking the potatoes makes them more rigid by removing the excess starch
Boring Town Ballad
In a town where the folks found it boring,
They danced to the sound of their snoring.
With a yawn and a sigh,
They waved dreams goodbye,
And entertained thoughts that were soaring!

Fun Fact
To preserve the length of the holiday shopping season, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed legislation in December 1941 that decreed Thanksgiving would always fall on the fourth Thursday of November. Thanksgiving had been celebrated on the last Thursday of November, which in some years was the fifth, since 1863.

Lazy Hunger

I am so hungry
But I do not want to cook
Find me some takeout
Pizza, sushi, or maybe
Some spicy noodles will do
