ON THE BRIGHT SIDE 

WEDNESDAY, MAY 28TH, 2025

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 Hamburger Day which have been a staple in the American diet for decades.  Americans eat almost 50 billion burgurs a year. That’s about three burgers a week for every person. 

Hamburgers originated in Hamburg, Germany,but eating a burger on a bun is actually an American tradition,  The hamburger as we know it was likely invented in Seymour, Wisconsin  Each year the city has a Burger Fest. That’s where the world’s largest hamburger made its debut in 2001,  It weighed 8,266 pounds.  

Celebrate today and grill up some tasty burgers for dinner tonight. Don’t forget all the delicious ways you can make your own burger.  Add bacon, ketchup, lettuce, tomatoes, onion m mayo, and what ever else you may like.  Enjoy!  

If you cannot see the bright side polish the dull side 

THOUGHT  FOR TODAY

 

A hamburger is a gastronomic icon of modern times,

Phyllis Richman

 I do love hamburgers.  I like mine with cheese, mayo, onion, tomato, and lettuce.  We have them often here.  My SIL cooks them outside on the grill and they are always delicious.  

We do a lot of grilling in the summer and I love it all.  I like grilled  chicken, hot dogs, sausage, and veggies too.

Early this morning we had another heavy rain with lots of wind.  It woke me up but I stayed in bed until it was all over.  Now it’s only partly cloudy outside.  They say it’s possible that we could get more rain later on today.  It’s appreciated for sure.

I saw my first hummingbird of the season yesterday.  It liked my daughter’s hibiscus plant here on the porch. It’s fun to watch them and they are beautiuful. 

  

I hope you all have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
