Stuff to know today ~~ this-and-that
2. Also I put this little ditty (a 'poem') on my other blog Saturday. My inspiration (?) was a picture, "Orangutan in the Rain" I chose Orangutan in the Rain photographed by Andrew Suryono for my inspiration. His was one of the winners of the National Geographic Photo Contest 2015.
3. The picture of KP and Mrs. Jim was taken last year as they were just coming out of the pantry after looking for goodies to eat. What do you think they found? (hint: KP loves chocolate)
4. Again today, it is also "National Spaghetti Day". Eat some. Make some (the January 2016 issue of Southern Living has some wonderful recipes).
5. One more, today is also "National Trivia Day." Did you know that the word “trivia” is plural for the word “trivium”.
Notes:
- a. The National Day Calendar can be found by clicking here.
- b. For the poem, the instructions were to write a poem in exactly 55 words. Also, "... invited [us] to look back on the past year by viewing the winners of the National Geographic Photo Contest 2015. (Click HERE) The photos are offered as wallpaper, which may be downloaded free of charge. Please acknowledge the photographer on your site if you decide to use a picture from that source."
- c. I'm linking with Sandee for her Awww Mondays post (Link). I believe these two I caught coming out of the pantry will rate, although most are posting animals like puppies and kittens. How about an orangutan then? Awww...

This is the half of my footlong braut with sauerkraut and mustard that I did not eat.
I got this dog from the German Deli place at Borough Market (London, U.K.)(Link)
To read about another hot dog I got over there, click here.
The Braut was over 12 inches long, an inch stuck out each side of the baguette.

Awww Monday (September 2, 2013) [# 02]
On July 25, 2013, Mrs. Jim, KP, and I visited the Science Museum, London, U.K. (It's free too!)
KP was very impressed with this U.S. Space Exhibition that she saw. They had an excellent U.S. Lunar display which we enjoy every time we visit the museum. Portions of it are the real thing, other parts are mock-ups for training.

When we left the Museum of Science KP told us that when she grew up she wanted to be an Astronaut. She has said that before also and showed a lot of interest in the U.S. Space Exhibit in the museum.
I am sure too, that she would like an ice cream cone. But she didn't mention that until we saw this mobile deli. Yes, the fellow also made hot dogs and had sandwiches.
