Karen’s Commentary: Are you
tired of wearing a mask? ME, TOO! But it’s a small price to pay if it keeps everyone
safer. If your glasses tend to steam up with each breath, slide them down your
nose slightly.
Darlene’s Commentary: I’m so
happy that the thermometer will be dropping toward double-digits! This summer
was a doozy and I sure look forward to cooler days. Thanks, Mother Nature! By next
summer I plan on owning a new igloo somewhere.

Handy Hint: If someone in
your house loves milk and loves it VERY cold, here is a great solution. Make
ice cubes out of milk, then add a few to each freshly-poured glass. And of
course this will never water down the milk like regular ice cubes would.

could talk, it would take a lot of fun out of owning one.” – Andrew A. Rooney
Until next time . . . remember to take time to enjoy the WONDERs
