The State of California wants to buy my car for $1,000. My 1991 Plymouth is getting on in years and isn't as efficient as the newer cars. So, the state wants to take it off the road. I'm getting on in years and I'm not as efficient either. When will they send a letter for me?
It's National Blonde Brownie Day.
I already celebrated, around 1 a.m I ate two small blonde brownies. Wanda baked a batch a few weeks ago and we have them in the freezer. Pop one in the microwave for 12 seconds and you have a very tasty treat. I did not know they were made with light brown sugar instead of dark chocolate. I never looked at the recipe. My job was to eat them.
It's also Answer Your Cat's Questions Day.
I have a terrific idea. Bake some loaded brownies, eat one or two, get comfortable and have a nice long chat with your cat.
