Hallmark Holiday:
National Blueberry Muffin Day
The closest you can get to eating a cupcake for breakfast, the blueberry muffin is a healthy-ish way to start the day and much more portable than a bowl of oatmeal. The people of Minnesota like them so much, they made the blueberry muffin their official state muffin. So, in a way, when you treat yourself to one today, you're celebrating the muffin and Minnesota. Kill two birds with one muffin.

National Cheer Up The Lonely Day
If this task sounds like kind of a downer, then you may be sitting on the cheery side of the fence. And you're just the kind of person we need. We can all get a little lonely now and then, and sometimes all it takes to brighten our day is a visit or a phone call from a friend. If you know someone who seems a little lonesome -- perhaps someone who celebrated Teddy Bear Picnic Day yesterday, for instance -- then send a little smile their way.

World Population Day
Quick: what is the current population on our planet? 1700? Really? Was that an actual guess? Jeesh, good thing we've got World Population Day to bring attention to this matter. The United Nations World Population Fund began this day to shed some light on the growing human population and the issues our communities face with each new baby we welcome to the world. To that end, this day focuses on sharing reproductive and family planning awareness to the global population of young people.

After Pancakes & Maple syrup breakfast we showered and dressed for an adventure. We drove out to the Fashion Center Mall. Walked to the Pentagon. Ate at Popeye's. Walked through the courtyard. Looked at different hallways.
Walked back to the mall. Big Guy had to visit the Microsoft store again.
Drove back home. Stopped in at Harris Teeter for a baking dish & Push-ups.
Big guy is mixing up and baking an easy recipe I found. http://www.graciousrain.com/2012/09/25/two-ingredient-lemon-angel-cake/
I pinned two other lemon bar recipes but they use larger cans of lemon pie filling.
I have just enough quarters for two loads of laundry. No jeans this time.
Our family is not good at the last instruction of the recipe directions.
Let it cool. We let it cool as long as we could hold out. Every one else wanted a second serving. I thought it was too spongie.
