Any special dinner plans tonight on this 81st anniversary
of the Normandy invasion?
Nothing special here, but I did pick up a tray of sushi
at the grocery store deli section. They have a person
in that area making it fresh everyday so I indulged and
just wolfed it down about 15 minutes ago. Yum!

It was a bit early for me to be eating but I also bought
a package of beef bologna! If I should have any stomach
growling later this evening I can fry some up. It took
a bit of searching through all the bologna offerings to
find ONE brand that didn't include chicken. Shudder!
Unfortunately, it's not thick cut, but I can just double
up on the slices to fry. Spicy brown mustard is standing
by as well.

Seafood sounds appropriate, something along the line of a cookout on the beach. We are having pan fried rainbow trout.
My father was not involved in D Day. He had not been involved in any
air operations over Europe because of his having had interaction with
the Danish Resistance. While he had been sent back to Canada for a while about a year earlier he had been sent back to the UK and worked as an instructor at a conversion unit. He had been sent back to Canada pending
his next posting. That was to be Boundary Bay out in BC.
AAMOF On D Day my parents were on their honeymoon. They were married
June 3, had a few days of honeymoon. As soon as they got back from the honeymoon Dad flew out to the west coast and my mother went out there by train.

Nothing special here either. Having DIL's chicken chili with some peanut butter crackers. Maybe some blueberry pie and ice cream later.

Maybe you're right. After all they are both really shallow people.

My neighbor across the alley brought me a generous pint
of blueberries her mother picked from her plants. Maybe
a blueberry cobbler later this weekend; I'm not that
enthused though.

Blueberry-cornmeal muffins? Do it! It'll drive Bruce crazy, and that's
all I want. ;)

handled would report his plane going down. He made it back safely.

I have the messages my grandparents received when his plane went down.
The first said that their plane had not returned and Dad and his crew
were missing and presumed dead. Then there was a follow up letter with limited details and instructions not to talk to the media about it.
Then there are the telegrams from the casualty office and shortly after
one from Dad saying he was safe in Sweden.

Hawaii is heavy with the history of the war. Here's a bit that's not
often talked about.
