I created and started this thread nearly 14 years ago. 😎🎈
I will change it often from now on. This is just a knock around
thread about things in life. My life and others. I am an avid Heidi
Daus Collector, former singer, model and so on. I do this thread because
I enjoy what I do. I love fashion and music and HSN is a little of both.
I cover a lot of music and fashion on this thread. ✨😎
I am going to wish a safe Summer to all the Peeps out there and please
stay safe. 🌹✨😎I have been shopping and posting on HSN since the late
90’s 😎I have wonderful memories from the HSN we all know and love.

NATIONAL SPONGE CAKE DAY
On August 23, enjoy National Sponge Cake Day with the quintessential classic of the cake world. This airy queen of teas is the guest of honor, but we get the pleasure of tasting!
One of the trickiest cakes for bakers to master, a perfect sponge stands tall. Another balancing trick for bakers includes maintaining a fine crumb while keeping the cake moist. If you enjoy layering berries and whipped cream, the sponge handles this task beautifully.

NATIONAL CUBAN SANDWICH DAY | AUGUST 23
On August 23, we celebrate a sandwich that originated in Cuba, but grew up in Florida. National Cuban Sandwich Day is a tribute to flavor found in a toasted pressed sandwich.
While the Cubano traditionally consists of ham, roast pork, swiss cheese, pickles and mustard on Cuban bread, restaurants and home cooks serve up different versions. While the sandwich alone may serve as a satisfying meal, some very flavorful sides complement this globe-trotting sandwich. Like any grilled sandwich, a creamy, dunkable soup makes the perfect complement.
The sandwich brings together flavor and history, too. By combining traditions from Cuban, German, and Italian immigrants, the sandwich offers a world tour of simple ingredients. If you’ve never had one, this is the day to try it.

Oh my I hope this works out for you I really do. I would not get out of bed today if your
body need to rest let it rest.
I would leave it on all day and turn it down at night until you know it’s working properly.

I hear your husband on the cost of A/C. We have central air in Florida and our homes in the North are window A/C.. When we use the A/C at those homes we keep it going on low during the night with the overhead fans. The cost was the same. In Florida we have a humidistat that we set when we leave the house for any length of time. This actually is a huge savings since electricity is high no matter where one lives. However, lately, I just set the temps higher while I am gone. This keeps the cost down as well.
I am also concerned with shoelady. Not like her not to post and I just hope and pray that her family is OK.. I also remember her stating how tired she was and that she would be staying away from the computer for a few days. Then I read the news concerning the weather in the northeast. They had some severe thunderstorms and even tornadoes. This is very unusual weather and something that has never happened before. There are times I wish a family member would step in. This is one of those times.
