Word of the Year - slop

"Quiet piggy, no slop for you!"

Feast of Our Lady Guadalupe and the memory of early morning free tamales after the mass of overwhelming rose fragrance and rose petals descending from the rotunda of the Mission Dolores Basilica.

If only a devotee, but I'm not, it's cold & dark in the early morning; 3 block walk to the church.

Unearthing mementos of our parents' holiday decor, packed away without dispersal. The forgotten gift of their creative influence sold at New Mexican art markets.

In 2025, the United States federal government did not formally recognize or commemorate World AIDS Day, breaking a tradition that had been in place since 1988.

No indication that other sovereign nations have officially stopped recognizing World AIDS Day; Europe, Africa, and San Francisco.

One must pickup the spent blossoms, where ever they fall, no litter with Zen.

The northern exposure street front of the childhood home of boxwood, ferns, camellias, and rhododendrons; the shade garden.

Clean up aisle nine = hand pick after the shake or the lawn is ruined.

I as well, remember my braised celery. Celery was grown in collars to keep it pale and more tender.

One day we'll all be posting food pictures.
Until then, thank you for all your contributions.
Happy Thanksgiving... I made the cranberry sauce.

Thanksgivings are special with the turkeys that got away.

The "meaning" of the day is to have fun with the concept, with the crucial disclaimer that you should avoid consuming anything that could be harmful or has obviously expired, and the importance of not consuming products with broken seals is a critical safety rule in real life.
National Sardine Day?

Butter during the depression, lard was the substitute. Ice water was popular in that era to keep the pie crust flaky.

No one today talks about :
The Panic of 1873
The Baring Crisis of 1890,
The Panic of 1893 and the ensuing Depression, 
Those born in the 1880s felt the before and after effects.
