Hallmark Holiday:
National Vanilla Milkshake Day
Before milkshakes were ordered at diners and malt shops across the country, they were ordered in bars. That's because the name "milkshake" was first given to an alcoholic concoction of whiskey and eggs (ew, by the way). We're not sure who decided to take out the whiskey and the eggs and add the ice cream and the milk, but thank you, whoever you are. So order yourself a milkshake today. And since it's specifically vanilla milkshake day, skip the crazy flavors and cookie chunks and keep it simple.

I think this is what Ethan Wate was trying to quote in Beautiful Creatures - “Some lose all mind and become soul,insane.
some lose all soul and become mind, intellectual.
some lose both and become accepted”
The FedEx man dropped the large envelope off today. I signed on the dotted lines and mailed it off to the Big Guy in VA. Sent a little box to OH also.
Picked up BK on the way home, got Vanilla Milk Shake.
Worked on making an Old Glory in Excel. I'll show it in 14 days.
Big Girl got an invite to use ooVoo.
Sent Netflix Disc back in today's mail. Next up is Mr Poppers Penguins. I told the kids it has nothing to do with the book. It's a "get the dad back" movie. It has nothing to do with us.
