THOUGHT FOR TODAY
He that scatters thorns, let him not go barefoot.
Benjamin Franklin
While I do enjoy sinking my feet into the sand on the beach, I really don’t go barefoot much at all anymore. My feet are old and need the support of comfortable shoes now.
I also love the feel of my comfy carpeting on my feet. It’s easy walking these days. I much prefer carpet to wood floors.
It’s Wednesday and my day to cook and on the menu today is:
Quick and Easy All American Hamburgers
Makes 4 servings
1 lb. lean ground beef
2 Tbsp. finely chopped onion.
2 Tbsp chili sauce.
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp prepared mustard
4 slices American cheese, halved diagonally
2 slices Swiss cheese, halved diagonally.
4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
Optional Lettice leaves, slice tomatoes, sliced onion, cooked bacon strips, ketchup and mustard.
Combine the first 5 ingredients, mixing lightly but thouroughly. Shape unto four patties. Grill burgers over medium heat until a thermometer reads 160 degrees and the juices run clear.
During the last minute, top each patty with 2 triangles of American cheese and 1 triangle of Swiss cheese. Serve on buns. As desired top with lettuce, tomato, onion, bacon, ketchup and mustard.
You’d think I would have had my fill of burgers for now, but they are always quick and easy to fix and make for a delicious dinner sandwich.
It’s also my day to make up my menu for next week and on the menu is :
Monday - Hearty Chicken Gyros
Wednesday - Confetti Kielbasa Skillet
Friday - Crunchy Tuna Salad with Tomatoes
Weekend - Turkey Stuffed Bell Peppers
The pictures today are of my favorite place to be, the beach.
I hope you all have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.
Khalil Gibran
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
10,297 For a new month, a new week, a new day, a fresh slate
10,298. for my feet that still get around
10,299. for warm sandy beaches
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters and EMT’s.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU!

Enjoyed the pictures. YOu are looking good! We too enjoy carpet... We don't plan to scatter thorns either. LOL Beaches cause smiles...
Planning on traveling. From Florida.... ;-)
It's been many years since I enjoyed sticking my toes in (beach) sand! Our home's about half-and-half carpet and ceramic tile. Tho' I love going about the house barefoot, I have to watch where I'm going -- the other night the hallway jumped in between my 4th and little toe. OUCH!!!
Enjoy your day, Ma! xo
I like that quote from Ben Franklin.
