January 4 National Day We Celebrated:
• National Spaghetti Day, National Trivia Day and National Missouri Day
We Celebrated National Spaghetti day by having spaghetti with meatballs and garlic toast. We had President’s Choice Tomato and Basil spaghetti sauce from Fortinos https://www.fortinos.ca/ and D’Italiano garlic toast; from the freezer section, at No Frills https://www.nofrills.ca/. The meatballs are President’s Choice Sirloin Beef Meatballs from No Frills. I quite enjoyed this as we don’t tend to eat Spaghetti very much. The meatballs were exceptional. I would say they were the best meatballs we have bought to date. #Spaghetti Day
National Trivia Day – Trivia Pursuit 90’s Edition and Jeopardy
For National Trivia day, we watched Jeopardy and played Trivia Pursuit 90’s edition. I found both very difficult. I think you would have to watch Jeopardy and play Trivia Pursuit more to get any good at it. I felt unintelligent after I was done. Everybody is good at their own things and trivia isn’t mine. haha #Trivia Day
For Missouri Day, I watched a 1976 movie called Missouri Breaks.I rented it from the Library. It’s a western film starring Marlon Brando and Jack Nicholson. I think that it was a good movie with great performances from Marlon Brando and Jack Nicholson. When vigilante land baron David Braxton (John McLiam) hangs one of the best friends of cattle rustler Tom Logan (Jack Nicholson), Logan’s gang decides to get even by purchasing a small farm next to Braxton’s ranch. From there the rustlers begin stealing horses, using the farm as a front for their operation. Determined to stop the thefts at any cost, Braxton retains the services of eccentric sharpshooter Robert E. Lee Clayton (Marlon Brando), who begins ruthlessly taking down Logan’s gang. #Missouri Day
Today was a very different kind of day since we don’t usually eat Spaghetti or watch/play Trivia but still a great adventure.
Let’s see what tomorrow’s adventure will be…
