yummy

 My west coast brother informed me this morning that today is 'National Cheeseburger Day.'  It's also 'National Rice Krispies Treats Day.'  But honestly, after I helped bake cookies for the Johnny Appleseed Festival last week I'm not that interested in sweet stuff right now.  On the other hand a cheeseburger sounds pretty good. I heard an advertisement today by Steak and Shake which confirmed that today really is National Cheeseburger Day so it must be true.  Have you ever noticed how many food related ads are on TV during the late evening hours?  I don't know if they really expect me to get up from my comfy recliner and drive to their fast food place.  They obviously don't know me very well, but perhaps they are trying to plant a not very subliminal idea in my brain.  Maybe, they think, tomorrow I'll find my way to their place. On the other hand, those ads do stir me just enough to get on my feet and wander out to the kitchen for a snack.  And, in spite of what I said earlier, a JA cookie sounds pretty good right about now.  I did buy quite a supply of them.  Most are in the freezer.  A friend informed me that if you pop a frozen  cookie in the microwave for 15 seconds it will taste just like fresh baked.  She also suggested putting a scoop of ice cream on top, but that might be a bit too much, although I probably should try it once before I judge.  I must add ice cream to my shopping list.
