Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Today is Just Because Day. Finally, you have a chance to do something without a rhyme or reason. Most often in life, we do things because we have to, or we want to, or it's expected of us. None of those reasons apply today.
Is there something you'd like to do, but there isn't a reason or logic for doing it? Well, today is the day to go out and do something just because you want to. It is most enjoyable if it is an uncommon, or unexpected activity or action. Perhaps, you have something in mind. If not, just go with the first thing that comes to your mind. Just because activities often come from a whim or a what if I type of thought. We know you will quickly get the hang of this day, and have a lot of fun with it.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost.
H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
I do a lot of things just because I want to. And today I want to share some more back to school pictures because the grands are all headed back to school. Just because I love them, I’m wishing them the happiest and best of school years ever !
Just because I love to cook, I share lots of recipes too. Today I found one that sounds like one that might just appear on the table when I have my next 3rd Sunday dinner
Honey Glazed Chicken Legs
2 1/2 lbs chicken legs
3/4 cup honey
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup ketchup
2-3 cloves minced garlic
salt & pepper
Preheat oven to 350. Just lay legs on a foil lined high sided pan. sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. In a bowl, mix well honey, soy sauce, and ketchup. Once mixed well, add minced Garlic and stir. Microwave for 30 seconds and stir again. Pour the mixture over the chicken . Bake for 45 minutes and rotate the chicken so the bottom of the legs are on the top, raise heat to 425 and bake until sauce is bubbly, about 15 minutes. Remove and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Serve with side dishes and lots of napkins!
Just because I love flowers, I plan to do some separating of some that have spread their borders here at my house and since the weather has been cooler here, it’s the perfect time to get outside.
Just because there are so many things I love to do, there is never a dull moment here at my house.
I hope you all have a GREAT day. Happy Thursday !
COUNTING MY GIFTS
