And Another Juneteenth

Well, it’s another Juneteenth – the second one as a federally mandated holiday. It’s also the second federally mandated holiday specifically for a singular race and, like Martin Luther King Jr. Day, it’s for- and about the Blacks within our nation’s borders.

Ah well. While I’m disgusted by a race-based – even more a second one – federal holiday since this violates the whole spirit of America, Juneteenth does give me a great, if not really needed, excuse to present some beautiful Black babes for our enjoyment. And… who’s really going to complain o’ermuch about a day off from work with pay?

In the minds of the majority of Americans, British humor is thought of the same as they think of British cuisine – dry and bland. Well, in truth, British humor and food can be quite spicy. 😆

Well, I’d like to think that let loose my mind more than I lose it, but gardening is definitely one of the things I do for my soul. Both the actual gardening and the feasting upon the produce that I’ve taken from seed to table does help settle my soul at least a little.

Bikini Interlude – A Poolside Edition

No beach, no problem. Bikinis are more than appropriate for pools and poolside fun and adventures. So, enjoy!

As I’ve proudly said before, I support LGBT. As such, during June I regularly have a LGBT Pride Breakfast. That’d be, of course, Lettuce, Guacamole, Bacon, and Tomato on lightly toasted multigrain bread. 😉 And yeah, this year I switched to the multigrain bread to improve my Diversity and Inclusivity.
