Breakfast: Spoon sized shredded wheat, two bannanas and coffee.

Snack: A little bit of the cooked pork chops, sour kraut and potatoes I made yesterday and I can of D.P.

Lunch: A nicely big one!

1. Rick's homemade stew, which consisted of:
   • Polish sausage
   • sour krat
   • potatoes
2. fried chicken from the 14^th Street Dillions
3. potatoe salad
4. Some sort of noddle salad
5. Fruid pizza (a desert): I didn't touch this as it had fruit I don't like...
6. My homemade vinalli ice cremme
7. my boss' homemade fudge syrup
8. A & W Root Beer
9. Probably a few things that excape my memory...and of course, a can of D,P. and then a second can of D.P.

Here is a quote from Johnny's Cash's "Sunday Morning Coming Down":

"And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad,
So I had one more for dessert"

I can't believe that I once thought this was an innocent and nice song! Of course, that was when I was a naive and callow (and overly protected) teenager in the late 1960s. I am far removed from that person...

Now, I hear a very sad song. These lines brings back bad memories:

"Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes
_And found my cleanest dirty shirt"

There were times in the early 1970s when I did exactly that many times! (Of course, my Navy uniforms were fairly clean and pressed, but my civilian cloths were not...)

The initial point to this balderash was to disply the paraphrase of Cash's line here:

"And the Diet Pepsi I had for breakfast wasn't bad,
_So I had one more for dessert"

This is a paraphrase and has everything to do with with my fondness for Diet Pepsi.

Back to commentary on the luncheon: A fellow who is famous for never eatting at work had some of the chicken and said "I think I'll try Mike B---'s ice creamme". I'm glad I was sitting down; I'd have collasped in shock had I not been sitting down!

Dinner: Salad and can of D.P.
