Are You Ready For The Summer, Darlilngs??????????

While the calendar does not yet say June 21, psychologically speaking, we know this weekend is the start of Summer!!!!!!! Are you ready for it, darlings?????? Feasting, and frosting, and all kinds of frolics. A time share on Fire Island???? Are you kidding me, girls???? The sunburn would kill me!!!!!!!!!

I can remember the 1960 classic "Where The Boys Are." Everyone wanted to be a different girl. I just HAD to be Connie Francis!!!!!!! Others wanted to be Paula Prentiss or Yvette Mimieux. I cannot recall anyone wanting to be Delores Hart, which is almost a foreshadowing of what was to come--her stay in the Convent!!!!!!!! And she is still there!!!!!!!! But, honey she is the only nun who is an offical member of the Screen Actors Guild and still votes for film awards!!!!!!!! She is one hip Sister!!!!!!!!

So if you're at the shore, the beach, or an urban esplanade by the water, have a FABULOUS Memorial Day weekend!!!!!!!! I can remember when Highland Park had its parade on that day; it was the biggest thing in town!!!!!!!! Then we would head over to my grandmother's on Nassau Street in North Brunswick for another parade, which went right up the street, so we could sit on the porch, and then the season's first official cook out. Whatever you do this weekend--ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!

But make sure YOU don't get cooked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
