Hello, Blog...allow me to reintroduce myself. I haven't written in so long, I can't believe I remember the log in. I plan on making this my last Tastemaker blog because I'm starting a new one...it'll still focus on my love for the culinary arts, but also other ideas and things that fill my mind.
I'm looking forward to a busy and fun filled weekend, but have to admit that I am guilty of forgetting the true reason why we are allowed to enjoy the next three days. Memorial Day weekend has become a time for BBQ's, parties, Reggae Fests and the beginning of white clothing. It's the bench mark weekend of the upcoming summer season. Today I realized how far removed I and others are from the true meaning when a colleague asked if it's Labor Day or Memorial Day and then decided it didn't matter since we have the day off. Wow. It matters. The brave soldiers that lost their life so we can enjoy this country and its possibilities matters.
3:00 pm local time on Monday is when we should stop and remember the fallen soldiers. That is the National time for remembrance. In your own way...remember those who died for our rights. They are the true American Idols.
Enjoy the weekends festivities and the BBQ's!! I love grillin and chillin and that is definitely in the plans :) Tuesday I will return to work tan and ready to begin my "get fit" regime!
Peace
