“Cheese Day” OR “Birthday Month” Day 1

Today is, “Cheese Day.” Meaning, that I will have fresh mozzarella cheese for lunch with my protein shake and cashews:

I have only had cheese like this at a restaurant once in my life. I went to Andiamo with The English Department, my friend Lauren, and the School Leader. He ordered the appetizer with fresh mozzarella, fresh tomatoes, and basil? It was delicious! And not until now that I realized that I can get that same kind of cheese at Target. A Facebook friend posted a couple days ago that the restaurant in Dearborn, (the one I went to), is closing because of the pandemic.

I don’t like tomatoes but these tomatoes were really good when eaten with the cheese and the basil? I have never liked tomatoes but my Mom‘s friend told me that if I ate a bunch of tomatoes that my hair would turn red and I have always wanted red hair! I forced myself to eat the tomatoes for a while until I realized that my hair was not going to turn red. I was a kid! Now, tomatoes are inflammatory which is something I do not need having MS!

So, today, being the first day of, “Birthday Month’ and the fact that St. Patrick’s Day is so close, I watched, The Quiet Man. I am a, “Wanna Be” Irish person and I LOVE Irish accents!!! My son’s name is Sean!!!

But, I love this movie and it reminds me of my Dad! I bought him the Collectors Edition of the DVD probably when I was 16 or 17. My dad liked John Wayne and I love Ireland so it was a win-win situation for both of us. My mom told me that I can’t have the DVD back until she dies:

I think this scene is one of my favorites:

So, overall, I am diggin’ “Birthday Month” Day 1. It’s pretty good. And I have a few other Irish movies I can watch until St. Patrick’s Day!
