Blogging from A to Z — the letter H

-

 Today we have to deal with “H”.


Guess what makes me happy?



It’s simple, really.  Hamburgers make me happy.

You can get a really good burger at the local diner.  You can get a decent burger at Five Guys or at Wayback. 

Red Robin makes great burgers, will even give you a free burger on your birthday.  Pity all the Long Island locations closed during COVID …

How do you like your burger?  What toppings will you add?

Sometimes I’ll ask for bacon and cheese.  Maybe a little sweet relish. Sometimes I’ll get grilled onions and mushrooms.  Sometimes it’s lettuce and tomato.


Reminds me of a song …

    A good burger is wonderful at the end of a long day! :-) https://rolandyeomans.blogspot.com/2023/04/h-is-for-c-s-lewis.html

    After McDonald's and KFC came to India, burgers became very popular. I would like it with cheese.

    As I hate most condiments, I'm good with just a patty and a bun most of the time. Although, I prefer turkey burgers...

    All I want on a burger is a slice or two of cheese.

    How about White Castle? We had one up on Boston Post Road in the Bronx that we would take a (long) walk to. What they made would be called sliders today. Small burgers steamed on onions and there was just something about their texture - yum. For my burger - no cheese. Ketchup and mustard, hold the mayo. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

    I enjoy hamburgers, too. Onions, tomato and lettuce are a must for me.

It’s all coming back to me now

 So you should know that I am not a “shopper”.  I live in shopping mall heaven — I’m ten minutes from the Broadway Mall,  15 from Roosevelt Field and 25 from Whitman Shoppes — but I seldom go to the mall.  I prefer to shop on line.  And when I do venture into a store, I usually know what I want and buy it as quickly as possible.  I’m not one to browse through stores just to see what’s for sale. There’s a local chain,  Baked By Melissa , that specializes in mini cupcakes.  They’re primarily in Manhattan.  A few years ago Becca introduced me to their product - delicate little cakes, exquisitely decorated, very tasty.  I walk past their shop on 7th Avenue whenever we go to the theater. Well, last week I remembered that they used to have a second shop on 7th, right next to the original shop, but selling gluten-free versions of all their cupcakes. The gluten-free shop closed, but the company continues to make a gluten-free version of their product. So I thought that gluten-free cupcakes wou

DISboards nonsense

found a new blog today. Love it. http://secret-squirrel.webs.com/index.htm I've posted there under various names over the last 10 years or so. it went from a sweet little board that was Pete Werner's hobby to ....well, a real nightmare. that a board devoted to all things Disney can be such a nasty, racist, childish (not childlike) place.... loving the inside scoop, though. Did I ever tell you how "songbird" was banned from the DIS? I was a poster in good standing for 3-4 years. Even booked my trips through Dreams Unlimited, back when Pete was careful to distinguish between the disboards as a hobby and Dreams as his business. Pete and Webmaster Alex were struggling with server issues, the disboards would go down more often than they'd stay up. then Pete announced cosmetic changes to wdwinfo.com, which feeds into the disbaords forum. Like all other members of the forum, I was frustrated. so I was a bit sarcastic. I posted something to the effect of "would yo

Music Monday

Another “your choice” week. How about new music from icons of the 60’s and 70’s? Let’s start with Jimmy Buffett’s posthumous hit, “Bubbles Up”. The Rolling Stones released a new song in 2023, it’s called “Angry”. The surviving Beatles (with some  help from AI) released “Now and Then”. And then Billy Joel …    The AI effects in the video blew me away… A note about the AI effects … the Beatles used it to isolate John’s vocals on an old demo.  Billy Joel had a young man play the piano then superimposed his own face onto the image of the younger man.
