THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Don’t underestimate the humble watermelon. It contains Vitamin A which is essential for healthy eyes and boosts immunity.

For today, I think I’ll be having watermelon for dessert tonight. It all depends if I can find a small piece at the grocery store for just me. They do have small watermelons, but even that is just too much for me.
It’s my day to the grocery shopping and as usual I’m making up a menu for next week to do my shopping from.
Monday - Lime Chicken Tacos
Wednesday - Rhode Island Hot Wieners
Friday - Linquine with Broccoli Rabe and Peppers
Weekend - Barbecued Picnic Chicken
I only cook every other day and eat leftovers in between.
On the menu for today is:
Easy Taco Pizza
Makes 2 pizzas 8 slices each
1 lb ground beef
1 envelop taco seasoning
1 cup water
2 prebaked 12 inch pizza crusts
1 cab refried beans
3/4 cup salsa
2 cups crushed tortilla chips
2 cubs cheddar cheese
Optional shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink. Stir in taco seasoning and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, set aside.
Placed crusts on uncreased pizza pans. Combine beans and salsa; spread over crusts. Top with beef mixture, chips and cheese.
Bake until heated through and cheese is melted. If desired, sprinkle with lettuce and tomatoes.
As this is a large recipe, I think I’ll only make half of this one. Even at that I’ll still have leftovers.
I hope you all have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
When one has tasted watermelon, he knows what the angels eat.

Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
10,486. for watermelon, delicious and refreshing
10,487. for an awesome dinner out last night
10,488. for stores nearby
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 ALL!
ADVICE FOR TODAY
Life is like eating a watermelon, you know you’re going to get some seeds, just spit them out and take another bite.

Watermelon is very refreshing on a hot summer day !
I'm not a fan, but oh my goodness how Tom LOVES his watermelon! On the other hand, that taco pizza sounds ah-mazing; all my favorite tastes on a piece of dough!
PS - I had my 2nd Shingles vax yesterday and feeling every one of the yukky after affects. Oh well, it could always be worse! Happy Wednesday!
I love watermelons and used to eat half of one all by myself! I like mine with salt, and I also make a good salad using cubed watermelon, feta cheese and mint leaves. YUM!

Watermelon is so refreshing on a hot summer day! I do like that taco pizza recipe. Will probably make it in the fall when we start cooking with the oven again.
