ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
FOR TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20TH, 2020
5
The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

Today is National Suspenders Day which honors suspenders that have helping to hold our pants up in style for more than a century. Suspenders have made a comeback over the years as pop culture and fashion to give the vintage accessory some new life.
You can celebrate by digging down in your closet and donning your favorite pair of suspenders today.
If you can’t see the bright side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Long hair minimizes the need for barbers, socks can be done without, One leather jacket solves the coat problem for many years; suspenders are superfluous.
Albert Einstein
Yes, there have been times in my life when I owned a pair of suspenders. Not to hold a pair of pants up, but to hold a skirt up. They were quite popular at one time, but I’ve not seen any in a long time. Mostly they were decorative and not essential. I do remember when my grandfather wore a pair. He didn’t wear a belt, so the suspenders had to do the job. I don’t have any suspender pictures to share of any of my grandfather either, but I’m sharing some more pumpkin fun had by DD and family this last weekend.They ended camping season on a very good note.
For dinner tonight I’ve got a recipe for some cold weather sandwich fixings. It’s hot and tasty.
Creamy Pulled Chicken Sandwiches in the Crockpot
This recipe makes a lot. Serves 24. So I will probably cut in half.It’s still more than I need but I will have leftovers for lunch
50 oz can of white boned chicken
26 oz. can of cream of chicken soup
salt and pepper to taste
24 whole wheat sandwich buns
Optional : pickle slices
Drain your chicken and shred with two forks. Mix together shredded chicken and soup in your crockpot.
Cover and cook on low 3 to 4 hours. Very simple and very easy.
Salt and pepper to taste
Stir everything together until blended. Spoon mixture on your favorite bun and add some pickle slices on the side, if desired.
I hope you all have aTERRIFIC Tuesday!

I hope this season ends on a good note for you too.
I just ordered another couple pair of suspenders for Tom. He, too, wears them in lieu of a belt; and I think they looks pretty schnazzy.
Enjoy your pulled chicken!
The teens here wear suspenders :) That creamy chicken is super easy! I bet it was delicious!
