Out and About – Week of March 30th

Food Facts You Probably Didn’t Know

This week is very special. Sunday was Palm Sunday. On Wednesday, April 1, Passover begins at sundown, and Friday, April 3, is Good Friday. Whatever religious beliefs you follow, take time to thank the God you worship and pray for a better tomorrow.

Next Sunday is Easter. Places of worship will be filled with believers and I’m sure even some non-believers who feel it’s an important day to worship God, just in case he does exist and is watching us. Believe me if you will, he is always everywhere and she is watching.

Easter has always been a special day for me. As a little boy, this is when I wore a new pair of dress shoes and my previous pair became my everyday shoes. Little boys dressed up in new suits and little girls looked very pretty in their new shiny shoes and new Easter dresses. My mother wore her white gloves and an Easter bonnet with all the frills upon it. Those were the days. Thank God for the memories.

Mexico City sinks about 10 inches a year.

The three most valuable brand names on earth: Marlboro, Coca-Cola, and Budweiser, in that order.

For those venturing out for “Spring Break”, safe travels to all and be kind and patient with each other.

Happy Easter and I’ll see you Out and About.
