Go Kids Go!

There is a rising indignation among students about gun control after the Florida shootings. They plan a huge march on Washington and other cities, lobbying, and social media.

They are tired of being targets of bullets and tired of their friends being killed and wounded. Good for them! As long as it is non-violent.

Adults have been trying since Sandy Hook, especially, to get gun controls and for mental health limitations. Adults have had no luck, mostly because the NRA owns politicians and the President. Adults are threatened with their jobs, or hate speech, or just non-action.

Kids don’t have to worry with that. And what politician wants to be perceived as against kids that fear for their lives? Kids have off for the entire summer and they can do amazing things in that time. Why does anyone have to own an automatic rifle? Excuses don’t work on kids. It is a new day!


National Margarita Day – February 22

I love me a good margarita! I also like being adventurous and putting bizarre new flavors in the mix. My favorite is the Blue Margarita made with Blue Curacao. When it comes to your table EVERYONE takes notice. It is so smooth!!!

I have to admit that a Margarita Day is February is kinda strange. One in the heat of summer is so much better!
