Thank you for the beautiful graphic and poem!

When I saw the title, it reminded me of a poster I had many years ago that was so precious to me.
I have looked for another one, so many times, as mine got lost in a move.

With a little search this morning - THERE IT WAS!
I had to share it with you:

[JustAmy]

Good morning, Rus. Thank you for sharing the DB message.

Have a great Thursday.

[JustAmy]

Good morning, JOHNN.
Your poem is Right On.
Thank you for sharing it with us.

Have a beautiful Thursday.

[JustAmy]

Good morning, Yorkie.
Thank you for sharing your poster with us.
It does have the same message as the Opener.

Hope you are having a Terrific Thursday.

DANG! I missed Caturday!

I forgot my password, asked them to email it to me, & finally remembered it. So I hope I will continue to be able to get on here!

Lunch time, TTYL, Tina

[jaycee]

I am going out for a while. May get to check in later! Have a wonderful day!

[yorkie]

That is so cute, JC!

I’m going out, too. Should be back later today. (Hope to find a couple ‘cheap’ outfits for summer - that make me look younger, thinner and prettier.) LOL!

[JustAmy]

Hey ... Pal! Welcome back!!
We've missed you.

Another Caturday is coming up on the 16th.
Hope you will be able to come by to visit.

Have a Terrific Thursday! Hope to see you again soon.

Thank you Amy. Happy Frog Jumping day to you!

[JustAmy]

Hello, Jaycee.
Your Simple Hello brightened my day. Thank you!

I will be leaving in a couple of hours; I need a haircut.

Wishing you a Terrific Thursday.

Happy Hopping Day to you, Yorkie.

Looks delicious and sounds easy.

Thanks, Yorkie.

Heck - I'm a day late and a dollar short! OK - so it is NOW National Buttermilk Biscuit Day, eh? Well Luvie makes the best buttermilk biscuits ever! And, Jaycee makes wonderful SAUSAGE biscuits. Bet they will share their recipes........ Especially if we BEG them!

[JustAmy]

I didn’t mind you being late since I was so late in posting the holidays yesterday.

I’ve been drooling over your recipes.

There is one more food holiday but I didn’t post it because I don’t know what it is. Let me look it up again.

I’ll be right back.

Good afternoon from
the lush green northeast.

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Still no internet at home, & I’m not here at work on “Caturday’s”, LOL!

I’ve missed you too!

PAL

[JustAmy]

Ooops .... I was wrong. The food that I am not familiar with should be celebrated on Saturday. May 16 is National Coquilles St. Jacques Day.

May is verdant, May is exciting, May is filled with fun food holidays:
National Asparagus Month
National Barbeque Month
National Chocolate Custard Month
National Egg Month
National Gazpacho Aficionado Month
National Hamburger Month
National Salad Month
National Salsa Month
National Strawberry Month

These may be celebrated anytime this month.

Happy Asparagus Month.
