What is your favorite?
It's that time again for the Girl Scouts of America to sell their cookies. I believe that we all have our favorites but actually like them all. My favorites are the Dosey dos (which were originally called Savannahs), Thin Mints and Tag-a-longs. The other ones that I like are Samoa's and Trefoils. Is it possible not to love these cookies?

A morning cup of coffee
Every morning or sometimes only a few days a week I make a small pot of coffee. The reason for this is because I like the smell of fresh perked coffee as well as the sound of the coffee pot while the coffee is brewing. Other days I have hot tea and if it is really warm something cold to drink like orange juice or even lemonade and maybe even iced tea.

An Easter Bunny Tale
One morning while looking out at my garden I was amazed at watching what this one bunny was doing. It was a bright sunny early morning for the sun was just starting to rise and the sky was so vividly blue and the air was cool this early Easter morning. It seemed to be gathering something from the yards in mine and the neighbors as well. For some reason I went out and sat down on the porch and continued to watch him. He not really sure if it was a male bunny, as he continued collecting whatever he must have noticed me for he looked my way. He started hopping towards and when he got halfway in my direction, he showed me what he was doing. He had collected a few eggs that seemed to have an odd scent. This bunny has the most peculiar face when handling these eggs and he whispered these eggs are rotten and cannot give. There will be more fresh ones in a few minutes. I sort of just sat there kind of amazed for I thought the Easter bunny was made up for the little children to have something to look forward as we do at Christmas with Santa Claus. Never knew I would meet the Easter Bunny. He is almost like Santa for in a flash he was back and had fresh decorated eggs in his basket and no funny smell. He hopped to the other houses and replaced those eggs as well. The bunny came back my way and looked at me and twitched his little black nose and as he hopped down the street I thought I heard him say "Happy Easter to All and to All a Good Day."

There are Days
There are days that I feel like doing what the dog in the picture is doing, but this is an article about some special days that seems to be like holidays. We all know and observe days like Mother's Day and Father's Day, but did you also know that there's a day for children and grandparents. There are the federal holidays of Veteran's and President's Day, which the latter is coming up very soon for there is also an Armed Forces Day and a Patriot Day, as well as days for particular people or groups of people as Martin Luther King Day and Juneteenth that are also federal holidays, and I almost forgot about Columbus Day and St. Patrick's Day even though they are not federal days but are still days that various groups celebrate every year even like the one that just passed Valentine's Day for all kinds of relationships. I know there is Christmas Day, New Year's Day, Easter Sunday, Thanksgiving Day, Memorial Day and Independence Day and even Canada Day on the calendar, but these days are for everyone just about for the days I mentioned earlier are ones that usually do not get 'celebrated' quite as much with television specials and things like that. If any readers have anything that they want to share or want to mention a day I forgot please comment it would really be appreciated.
