Happy Friday Guys and Dolls:
The weekend is approaching and I hope all of you have a great one. For those planning a visit to the Sunshine State the weather calls for Partly Cloudy to Sunny skies. Highs will be in the 80’s with lows in the 60’s. Chance of showers next Tuesday and Thursday so it looks like a good week for your vacation. Let us take a look at the weekend celebrations:
TRADING CARD DAY – I wish I had my old baseball cards back from the 50’s.
MILK IN GLASS BOTTLES debut in 1879 – There was something delicious about drinking milk from a glass bottle. Just pulling off that little tab and taking a big swallow was refreshing except getting yelled at from drinking from the bottle. I still remember the milk man delivering to Granny’s house.
NATIONAL GOLF DAY – I played golf a few times and could never get the ball off the ground it just dribbled down the fairway. I also missed it completely a few times. Golf is not my game; hence I never watch it on the tube. I’ll stick to Putt-Putt.
INTERNATIONAL EMPANADA DAY - An empanada is a stuffed pastry baked or fried in many countries of Latin America and the south of Europe. Empanadas are made by folding a dough or bread patty around the stuffing. The stuffing can consist of meats, vegetables, or even fruits.
Well Speakies that is it for today have a great weekend and please be careful out there.

Hi JoeZ:)
There were still milk trucks in my day..when I delievered paper on my second paper route on Liberty Street in Villa Park I used to see the milk truck dropping milk off on peoples porches by putting the bottles in those square aluminum containers on the porch.:)
Milk now it's 1%. 2%, whole milk or some kind of special blend. Give me plain old white milk. Thanks Mack.
