Depending on who's making the lists, February has been variously designated as Canned Food Month, Great American Pie Month, Cherry Month, Grapefruit Month, Snack Food Month and Hot Breakfast Month.
Suggestion: Celebrate National Don't Cry Over Spilled Milk Day on Sunday, February 11, and then on February 12, come to the Charlotte Senior Center where a delicious meal awaits you. Take note of how cleverly (and deliciously) the volunteer cooks represent the upcoming Valentine's Day.
February 12: Monday Munch: 11:30 a.m.—12:30 p.m.
Italian Wedding Soup
Three Hearts Salad (romaine hearts, artichoke hearts and hearts of palm)

The wonderfully named (and delicious) Italian Wedding Soup comes from "minestra maritata"—"married broths," referring to the blending of meats and broths.
With the long string of grey days we've been having, we definitely need "You Are My Sunshine," copyrighted in 1940 and recorded by just about everybody: Gene Autry, Bing Crosby, Doris Day, Frankie Yankovic, Ray Charles, The Simpsons, the movie "O brother, Where Art Thou," and many more.
During the Covid lockdown, with choir rehearsals canceled, British choir master Garet Malone offered singers and music lovers a new opportunity and a safe way of singing in a group. As a longdown choir, accompanied by the London Symphony Orchestra, they sang a wonderful "You Are My Sunshine."

Don't forget to remind a child you care about that there are great books over at the Little Free Library for Kids just outside the Grange (2855 Spear St). Children of all ages need to hear books read.
