Coffee Cake Day
I wake up some mornings
and sit and have my coffee
and look out
at my beautiful garden, and I go,
“Remember how good this is.
Because you can lose it.”
~Jim Carrey
Today we say happy birthday to Nathan Lane. This dude cracks me up. If you’re not familiar with him, hop over to You Tube. Birthday wishes also to Norman Rockwell (1894) and Morgan Fairchild (1950).
It is also Children’s Authors Week. Since I am one, I’ll say thanks now for all the kind thoughts. If you haven’t bought my child’s book of optimism, I’d love to sign and send you a copy!
The TV show Dragnet premiered on this day in 1952. Dragnet is also worth a trip over to You Tube.
Over on our calendar of a Month of Smiley Silliness it Victorian Houses Day. Researching this one I’d hoped to find a connection to the beautiful house on Alamo Square in S.F., but instead found that it was created by the real estate biz.
And just because I can, here’s a second Coffee Cake Smiley. And for a tad more fun, I used yet a different Coffee Cake Smiley in today’s Smiley-a-Day emailer. Bakeries are full of Smileys. Even if you go and don’t find one, you can still pick up something yummy!
BTW, the Smileys and holidays on a month full of Smiley Silliness are all different than the ones you see here on the website’s Daily Smiley.
