My son fixed us some pork chop sandwiches with lettuce and corn on the cob with honey butter.

What's up? Lots to celebrate on this Hump Day. For our baseball fanatics, today is the date for MLB pitchers and catchers to report for spring training. Many claim that's a much better sign that spring will arrive eventually than any groundhog foolishness.
Baseball is one of my greatest joys—the American pastoral game. With baseball's return, I hope that the world will start returning to a more normal place.
Go CUBS!!!

A cup of herbal tea and a couple of butterscotch marshmallow crunch cookies that Sara donated sounds great. I have never had a butterscotch marshmallow crunch cookie before, and it sounds like an epicurean delight.
BTW, Sara, it took 3 hours for my wife to get home on the train because of a foot of snow that had happened the night before in Chicago. I love snow!

For my mother. She died a few years ago. I wish I could remember her face.

You scared me so badly that I jumped back, further back than you.

I do not think so, beautiful lady. I see you ahead; therefore, I am at the end!

My wife is a Cajun Queen. This could be a childhood photo of her. It even looks a bit like her. Of course, the alligator would be real with her. 😂🤣❤

Not too much snow here yet but they are promising round 2 overnight tonight so we shall see.
Yeah, Mardi Gras will probably be a bit restrained again this year. Have never had the pleasure of being in NOLA for Mardi Gras. The conference that was my usual excuse for going there was usually a few weeks after. Sigh. The year Microsoft stopped that conference, it was supposed to be in New Orleans. Have not been back in a while now, though I've nudged my family about taking a cruise out of there sometime so I can show them the city.
Mardi Gras was unbelievable in NOLA until the mid-1980s. Even today, it can be fantastic, but the best spots are in some of the suburbs. A weeklong party that never stopped. I met my wife on the way to Marti Gras in 1976. I toast you with a Hurricane.

I am a movie nut, but the stage is the best. Local and community theaters are great!

Good morning, Spacers. Coffee's cooking and the tea kettle is ready for business. Combine all that with some of Sarah's cookies and you have a breakfast of champions.
Sorry I am to come before y'all confessing to yet another fall from grace on my part. The story I was gonna post here on the fabled 'Sacre Bleu' site has, sad to say, already been posted, and by me. (sob/blush)
For proof, here's a link to the original, one and only: Last of th Southern Romantics.

It's not a bad story, imo, although it collected only six votes and a handful of views.
Anyway bellyachin' and alibiing aside, it's back to the fickle keyboard of life. (sigh)
Y'all keep on keeping on.
Later, Inspirators.
I enjoyed that story. I reread it because I had forgotten some of the nuisances.
