Lorne vids for moi! :)

 

a little naughty in bits… i.e. nudity.

 

hmm?

thinking…. which could be dangerous or fun depending on your view point.

So…. should I continue the calendar of the day? I like it. I really do. But some days I miss the writing- my writing. I’m starting to feel the need to do some other type of writing, and honestly I don’t see a lot of comments on the cal days. I’m thinking of moving all of them so far back into ‘draft’ status or maybe not??

I’m in a kinda/sorta mood. Some people might understand, others maybe not. 😛

anywho…till later xoxo

Egyptian Revolution Day
July 23, 2014 in Egypt

Egyptian Revolution Day takes place on July 23, 2014. Revolution Day refers to the public holiday in Egypt, the anniversary of the Egyptian Revolution of 1952. It is the biggest secular public holiday in Egypt. Annual celebrations marking the Revolution begin on the preceding evening, as the evening of 22 July 1952 was when the Free Officers Movement led by Muhammad Naguib and Gamal Abdel Nasser commenced the military coup d’état that launched the Revolution, and ultimately led to the abdication of King Farouk (the penultimate King of Egypt and Sudan). The public holiday itself is characterised by large and elaborate celebrations, including televised concerts with heavily nationalistic themes, and military parades.

Cherishes herself as much as she cherishes her loved ones

Loves life – and lets everyone know it!

And for those single gorgeous grandmas – recovers after loss and learns to love again.

Hot Dog Day
July 23, 2014 in the USA

Today is National Hot Dog Day! Hot dogs are one of the most iconic American foods. No cookout or baseball game would be complete without a delicious hot dog served on a bun and covered in ketchup, mustard, onions, relish, or chili.

The day is designated by the National Hot Dog & Sausage Council in the USA. As the name suggests the festival revolve around eating hot dogs, but usually there are many other activities such as wiener dog races, root beer chugging contests and face painting.

A hot dog is a fully cooked sausage, traditionally grilled or steamed. It is typically served as a sandwich in a sliced bun, as a corn dog dipped in corn batter and deep fried, or as an ingredient in other dishes like beanie weenies, or Pigs in blankets. It is often garnished with mustard, ketchup, onions, mayonnaise, relish, cheese, chili and/or sauerkraut.

July is National Hot Dog Month!:
