3--Today is also National Candy Day...and here are some tips for storing that left-over Halloween candy.
4--One of the loveliest blogs I've discovered lately is Grow Line--a blog written by a mother and daughter whose goal is to "revive the 'art' of being a lady while encouraging manners and grace. Check out this post about the essence of true beauty.
5--Loving "all things French" as I do, one of my favorite blogs has become Castles, Crowns and Cottages. Although it's not always French-themed, it's always a treat for the eyes...like visiting a favorite home or beautiful little shop. And it IS written by a French teacher, Anita...who is one of the most gracious bloggers I've ever encountered! Enjoy.
6--On This Day in History, 1980: Ronald Reagan won the White House, defeating President Carter by a strong margin.

National Candy day? ugh! I just tossed mine, they should make it, October 31st and then today...national throw out your left over candy day! Good List. We loved the Batman movies!
I won't let my husband cook anymore. He puts Tabasco in Everything.
Interesting list. I wish I had known about the husband cooking day before I bought chicken to fix for dinner!
I am down for number 2 although I am not sure what to expect because cereal for dinner doesn't do it for me. I was laughing so hard at the snoring husband one. See, I just got my own room. :-) It is my hideaway for when the snoring really gets to me and it's mine - no farting, no I am tired honey, I can hog the bed and not worrying about the sharing the covers, etc.
I will have to come back and revisit your page. Some interesting links I'd like to explore.
Happy T13!
National Candy Day? Cool. I've got to get some. :)
What an interesting list and I visited a few of the links. How convenient to have National Candy Day a few days after Halloween. :o)
Blessings to you!
CINDY DEAREST! Oh, I saw your lovely post yesterday at a quick glance from work, but unable to comment. THEN I SEE YOUR LOVELY COMMENT! THank you for commenting on my art work. I haven't drawn in 40 years, but just in the last year, thanks to blogging, have started again. Really, since I was about 12, I stopped. AND I would like to publish stories with my own drawings! OH, TELL YOUR DAUGHTER TO DEVOUR AND LISTEN TO REPEATEDLY FRENCHH MOVIES AND MUSIC. THAT IS HOW I LEARNED and I started at the age of 34. I am a licensed teacher with 2 types of licenses and with a B.A. in French!!!! So there is hope; but perseverance must be the key! BONNE JOURNÉE! Anita
What an awesome list, full of information I did not know. LOL! Thanks for stopping by my TT. :)
