MORNING UPDATE - MAY 27

Good Morning, peeps! Happy Monday! The weather is rocking! I am always hoping against hope that it is going to stay like this for the rest of the summer - but I will take what I get and try to enjoy it. 
Today is Memorial Day - and it is gratifying to know that a lot of people remember that it is not just an extra day off to enjoy sales and barbecues. 
Of course, our Dear Leader deprived us of Fleet Week, siting the usual sequester garbage - so, instead of cute sailors our fair city if full of just crazy tourists. Thanks, Hussein!
Baby Bro if VOLUNTARILY reading Anna Karenina!!!!
Paula is cooking with Garth Brooks' wife. They are making something hot, spicy, fried, full of butter, and very colorful - hurray for Georgia girls!
The Battle for the Amazon Box continues! Sniff's usual attack tactic is to gain a higher ground and then attack; well, the higher ground in this case happens to be the edges of the box, which makes for a very entertaining picture.
Daniel Radcliffe announced that at the ripe old age of 23 he is finally planning to get a tat - congratulations!
"Many of the world's most glamorous ladies flaunted their curves on the red carpet during the past 11 days at the Cannes Film Festival." - what an oxymoron! Because whoever is considered "most glamorous" in the film industry today usually has no curves to speak of, so, what the heck they were "flaunting" is a mystery to me.
Trending at #3: Upstate NY near Vermont border got 3 feet of snow over the weekend - global warming, my coccyx!
Rob Kardashian's diet (which is trending at #6) is, apparently, working, and his sister Kim looks sexy in white (or so they claim) - at least everyone is dressed this time around.
Charles' and Diana's wedding is considered one of the most expensive weddings of all times - which, if I was a Brit, I would be seriously bummed about, considering how happy they made each other, and how it all ended.
Their older son's wedding also took a huge bite out of the treasury, but, so far, it looks to be very different and much happier marriage.
Coffee this morning in my hug Pooh mug.
