Luee

Luee
We adopted Luee from the Humane Society in 1996. He was 2 years old, but still a pup. He has slowed down a bit; his age is catching up to him. He is the best dog anyone could ever have. Luee had to be put to sleep on April 15, 2009. Rest in Peace Pup.

HONOR THOU FRIES AND BEER THIS WEEK


Good Morning Guys and Dolls:

Hope your evening was a pleasant one and you shared it with the ones that you love. I will try to squeeze a few posts in this week but with all the stuff happening my mind is in a different zone. Then I must have at least four medical tests coming up and one can get tired of doctors and tests pretty fast as the years go by.

On a brighter note this week we celebrate two holidays of things I like National Potato Day and National Beer Day. I like my potatoes fried, mashed, baked, scalloped, hash browned and French fried. I remember down at the Jersey shore one stand on the boardwalk had thick crinkled fries in a cone cup loaded with salt, they were good and nobody thought about salt in take in those days. I just loaded them up with a little ketchup and chowed down. I told you my granny use to make salmon cakes and fries on Friday nights. She took a baked potato and cut it in fours, than cooked them in oil in a big pot, talk about big fries and good they were it. Oh yeah granny loaded them down with a lot of salt too.

Now it’s time to give beer its little spotlight. I like beer on a hot summer day and really prefer a draft beer to those in a can or bottle. I’m not an expert on beer itself but I loved those little bottles of Rolling Rock but they don’t carry them here. I did find Miller Light in small cans which is just the perfect size for me to gun down. When I use to go to the Phillies games nothing was better than seeing the hot dog man carrying that metal box giving you the dog with a slap of mustard and a cup of that watered down beer. I can still hear them call out “BEER HERE” AND HOT DOG, GET YOUR HOT DOGS HERE.”

So this week have some fries, a dog and down them with a beer. Have a great day Speakies and be careful.

So many local restaurants had good fries I cant pick a fave for that. But I think Golden Dawn has the best Onion Rings..supersized salty greasy bad for you but..DELICIOUS.
