The only problem with opening in a new window is, if sound is playing on the current page and is playing on the new page, it can get raucous.
The cartoon with Billie’s avatar for you has that problem. If they have “grandma got run over by a reindeer” playing when they click on your avatar, which changes to Ms Amy on mouse over; they will have that song along with the theme from “Twilight Zone” simultaneously.
I may have to bite the bullit and put a “target=_self” in the link. The problem with that is, if they return with a back arrow, they start back at the beginning of a long page. With the new window they come back to the same cartoon that they clicked on.

I will miss you, my friend! |

At a new place among unknown faces, with unsure destiny I came into your world, with thousands of dreams in eyes I recall my endless queries, that gave you countless hassles Now, as you set to go away, I ask myself, didn't I know you since eternity?
We laughed together in every success, & cried together during failure To help realize my dreams, you didn't get enough sleep, for sure! Thanks for all the wonderful memories, should I have asked for more?
For that you are aiming higher, I don't know if my best wishes help you But, with new ambition & enthusiasm, I too have great expectations from you
This place is no longer new to me, but people! they are still the same, & so are my dreams! I wish, you will find someone like yourself, I will miss you, my dear friend, as you are so special to me, by all means!

Hug Your Cat Day
National Frozen Yogurt Day
Cheese Day
I decided to also serve wine.
Old Maid's Day
Applesauce Cake Day
Butter Rum-Glazed Applesauce Cake
Cake:
1/3 cup butter **
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
Glaze:
2 Tablespoons butter **
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon rum flavor
3-4 teaspoons half and half or milk
Heat oven to 350. Spray 8-inch square pan with cooking spray.
In 1-1/2 quart saucepan, melt 1/3 cup butter over medium heat. Cook 2 to 2-1/2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until butter just begins to brown. Immediately remove from heat. Stir in granulated sugar, applesauce and vanilla.
In large bowl, mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Stir in applesauce mixture. Pour into pan.
Bake 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
For the glaze: In 1-1/2 quart saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat; cook about 3 minutes or until butter just begins to brown. Immediately removed from heat. Stir in remaining glaze ingredients until smooth and spreadable. Pour over warm cake. Cool 30 minutes. Serve warm.
**it is important to use butter in this recipe as it is the browned butter that gives this cake the wonderful flavor! Please don't substitute margarine.....it won't be the same!

Thank you, TCP. I’m happy that you enjoyed it.
