Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Always on September 12th, Chocolate Milkshake Day is an opportunity for chocoholics to savor. The weather may have cooled off. But, our appetite for chocolate, specifically chocolate milkshakes, hasn't cooled off one iota.
Simply combine a little milk with some chocolate ice cream, add some extra chocolate syrup, and mix it well in a blender. That's the fixins for mixin up a big, tall glass of chocolate milkshake.
On a diet? Not today. A lot of people celebrate Chocolate Milkshake Day with not one, but two or more chocolate milkshakes. Bottoms up!
Shake it up for Chocolate Milkshake Day!
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Life is at its best when it's shaken and stirred.
F. Paul Facult
Milkshakes are very easy to make and I often wonder why I don’t have them more often. But it’s probably good I don’t. Although milk is good for you, I really don’t need all the extra calories. Of course you can use healthier ingredients like the low fat and sugar free varieties of milk and ice cream but the real stuff is the best in my opinion.
Speaking of shaking things up a bit, the weather sure has change here. It’s much cooler and I’ve had to dig out some warmer clothing. No more shorts or capri’s here for the rest of the week and probably into next week too. We’ll be in the 60’s for the most part with a few days in the low 70’s. The lows will be in the 50’s. Never fear though warmer days aren’t over yet. We’ll still have a few more coming our way.
Today would have also been my Dad’s birthday so I fondly remember him today. It’s also an anniversary for one of my nieces and her husband today. I’d say it’s a pretty good day to have a good day!
I hope you all have a fantastic Friday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Sometimes your medicine bottle has on it, Shake well before using. That is what God has to do with some of His people. He has to shake them well before they are ever usable.
Vance Havner
I have counted at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for over almost 2 years and have now reached 2000 gifts. On my way now to 3000. I'm not stopping, but will continue on counting. There is always, always something to be thankful for.
2030. for milkshakes, mmmm good
2031. for things that shake me up now and then, that’s good too
2032. for long pants and long sleeve shirts too.
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Lord, hold our troops in
your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us.
Bless them and their families for the
selfless acts they perform for us
in our time of need. I ask this in the
name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT's
GOD BLESS YOU !
ADVICE FOR TODAY
Give and it shall be given unto you: good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over…
Luke 6:38
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,
ma
