Pour Some Sugar on Me (14 days)

It is the 127th day of 2018.  And 5/7/2018 was also the 14th day of my abstention from artificial sweeteners.  That's right, two weeks of no Coke Zero, no Diet Coke, and no Diet Green Tea.  It's been a struggle and the temptation has been real.  But I have been good, and we will see if I can make the 30-day benchmark (first 2 weeks, then 30 days, then, who knows!)  So, for tonight, we will celebrate the number 14 and, although I am trying to limit it as well (so a LOT of unsweetened tea and just plain water), a song about sugar, the natural sweetener.

Et Tu, Brute (since 1599)

The Ides of March.  3/15/18, the 74th day of 2018.  I wanted to have a Caesar Salad all day but, alas, it was not meant to be.  Instead, I figured I would honor Shakespeare and his Julius Caesar play, written in 1599.  So 1599 will be our number, and this strange song about JC will be our song.  Off to bed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sI24OtN678o

Sugar Cookie Day and 0 unread emails!

Pretty nondescript day on day #190 of 2018.  7/9/18 is also National Sugar Cookie Day.  The only thing notable for me is that I have ZERO unread emails as I head to bed.  So, elated about that small detail, I will present 0 as the number of the day and play this song (about sugar) from the Archies.  Goodnight! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9nE2spOw_o

102nd Birthday

The 43rd day pf 2018 marked the anniversary of the birth of a very important person.  And Abraham Lincoln too!  But 2/12/18 would have been the 102nd birthday of Nettie Soskin, my Bubbe.  She was one of the most amazing women I have ever met and she is one of my role models.  And she could cook too!!  <3  So, to honor her, we have the number of the day as 102 and this Stevie Wonder classic as our song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inS9gAgSENE
