dad's birthday 2023

Issues regarding love and romance may be confusing today, Virgo. You should be aware that strong forces are at work to tangle the current situation. Try not to get too discouraged by whatever transpires as a result of this energy. Keep in mind that this, too, shall pass, and things will become clear again. Right now you should just sit back and take things with a grain of salt.

tarot card of the day;
Wheel of Fortune

Are you ready for a shakeup? The Wheel of Fortune indicates that one is coming. But don't be too worried. This card sends the message that nothing is permanent. Good luck, bad luck, love, and loss… All things change at the pace that they should. Regardless of the deck you use, the Wheel of Fortune's art makes one thing clear: The wheel is always moving. A period of good fortune may follow bad, and vice versa. Enjoy the good times, learn from the bad. You never know when your luck will change.

Tabasco Chipotle Pepper Sauce

 something we picked up after seeing it in the condiments isle of wal-mart.

the label says smoked & they're not kidding. overall, i think it's better to stick to the original tabasco sauce. or even the sweet & spicy sauce.

vanilla spice cheerios

 a new cerecal we discovered at wal-mart a few days ago.

sadly there was no vanilla or any spice. we don't need a lot of either, but some would've been nice.

and the size of the cereal pieces got smaller since the last time we had cheerios.

new hostess stuff

 discovered 2 new (most likely limited time stuff) at wal-mart.

chocolate lovers twinkies; chocolaty cake with chocolaty filling. not too bad.

ding dong & twinkie mash up; typical twinkie cake & filing in a ding dong shape with a chocolaty coating.  ok taste wise, bu the cake was very dense. almost like eating a sponge.

would not get either again.

the weather

 continues to be too hot for my tastes.

and now there is a sizable amount of rain. and, as always, i wish i could send it to places that need it.

wee needed it too for a while in the end of june/beginning of july, but i think we're good now.
