How to Celebrate National French Fry Day?🍟⚽

I got up this morning (July 10th Australian time) and watched France beat Morocco in their World Cup quarter final, so I bought some "French fries" to go with my Whopper, since it was National French Fry Day:-)
Norway all the way I say:-)

Lasagna [and Use-By Dates] Awareness Month? 📅📆🪦👻

I bought a Lasagna from the frozen food section of my local supermarket to eat tonight, as I knew that July is 'Lasagna Awareness Month', so I thought why not?
There is even a not so SECRET SUN on the box;-)
As I was reading the cooking instructions on the pack for cooking the Lasagna in a microwave oven, I saw the use by date was August 29th, 2027, and couldn't help think how seeing a date like that would trigger my old mate Chris Knowles, who writes 'The Secret Sun' blog, as he has an unhealthy obsession with the Scottish singer Elizabeth Fraser, seeing her as some kind of "sibyl":-)
'Jack of Diamonds' to my right
The "synchromystic" thing is that I'm in the middle of reading Bryce Courtenay's last book 'Jack of Diamonds', where the main character Jack Spayd is about to travel to Las Vegas to meet up with Sam Giancana, who in real life was the Chicago mob boss rumoured to be behind the planning of JFK's assassination on November 22, 1963. 
Bryce Courtenay died on November 22, 2012, from stomach cancer, oddly enough.

Superlative Sun: The Twin (Peaks) Paradox
Well, speak of the "sibyl" ... and Knowles' unhealthy obsession with the Scottish singer Elizabeth Fraser, as he just dropped his own July 9th post featuring the "sibyl" and David Lynch's 'Twin Peaks' TV show.
But July 9th is so yesterday from where I am here in Australia:-)
On a personal "synchromystic" note February 24th is my late big brother's birthday and the date on which my divorce was finalized.
And my mother passed away on David Lynch's birthday.

How to Celebrate Durian Fruit Day?😨👅

Durian has one of those legendry reputations as a fruit that people either love or hate, and for people like me who have not tried eating the fruit yet, it's one for the bucket list, and I hope that I don't mean a bucket to vomit in when I do finally try the fruit.
I regret not hunting down and trying the fruit when I was over in Singapore in 2025, but I guess the fruit is like a carrot on a stick to get me to go back to Singapore or even visit Thailand or Malaysia for the first time and maybe try the fruit and find out for myself just what all the fuss is about.
