ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
TUESDAY, JULY 20TH, 2021
The moments 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 Lollipop Day which elebrates the variety of flavors they come in. Lollipops are a traditional hard candy made with just four ingredients, sugar, water, corn syrup and the flavoring of your choice.
Culinary historians believe they have been around, is some form, since prehistoric days. It is presumed that humans often enjoyed.honey on a stick as a delicious treat.
No one knows with certainty how the modern day lollipop was invented. However it is known how it got its name. George Smith, the owner of a small candy store came up with the sweet's name in the early 1900’s. He coined the confection a lollipop after his favorite racehorse — Lolly Pop.
To celebrate today, go to you local candy store and get a lollipop to enjoy.
If you can't see the bright side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
There is no denying that candy is comfort food and it’s affordable.
Dylan Lauren
A lollipop is a piece of hard candy on a stick and I think it’s a good way to enjoy it as it makes it easier to enjoy it longer. It won’t melt like a popsicle would. And your hands won’t get sticky, if you take it out of your mouth for awhile.
I keep some on hand here for the grand babes when they visit. They are a treat everyone enjoys. Sone even have other candy in the middle like a Tootsie Pop with a tootsie roll inside.
A little bit of sugar can help you restore your willpower for tasks like yard work or homework. They help you to keep your focus better.
Some say they act as an appetite suppressant and help people lose weight.Having one before meals may help to reach your goal weight.
It’s my day to make up new lists and notes and get the paperwork in order for the week. I’ll pay bills and decide what I’d like to do the rest of the week. I’d like to clear off my desk top. Maybe sucking on a lollipop will help me get it done.
I’m meeting my friends for lunch today and we’re going to do a hot dog cook out here at the pavilion in our community. A grilled hot dog is a real treat for me.
I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!

Candy is a comfort food.
That's interesting about lollipops being appetite suppressants! Gosh, I've not seen them in years and years. I remember when executives used to keep them in glass jars on their desktops.
Enjoy your cook-out!
Have a fantastic time at the cookout with your friends today!
My son and wife gave multi-colored lollipops to our 3 and 1.8 yr.gr-sons those pops. Darn cute. Pure sugar.
