This recipe is a family favorite from a friend of the family. I absolutely love this dish because it’s beef and sauce and full of good memories. It’s good with rice and steamed broccoli. Each year I ask for it on my birthday. Check out the Soup Diva’s site to check out the recipe.

Daily Prompt – Favorite Time Of Day
My favorite time of day is 4:30 Monday-Friday. Yes, that is when my workday ends. I am grateful for having a job. But, I will tell you, my job is mentally taxing and that impacts a lot of stuff. At the end of the day, I am tired. Once again, my job helps a lot of people, but I am only human, and I have my own limits.

Daily Prompt – Word Of The Day: Credit
Being creative is fun, and it’s even more fun when you inspire others in your works. The use of someone’s work should come with acknowledgement and credit. I really strive to be original, but I do need inspiration now and then. My posts here include words, images, videos and other types of media from various sources.
I want to offer them thanks for allowing me to use this in a fair use way where I do not financially benefit. A little credit is a great way to be a good blogging neighbor. I want to thank Catherine for her inspiring me to write this post. Check out her article https://micqu.org/2025/07/28/credit-where-credit-is-due/ to gain more insight.
Daily Prompt – Word Of The Day: Snob
There is a British TV comedy called “Keeping Up Appearances” which is about an eccentric snobbish middle-class woman who seeks to climb the social ladder. Her last name was Bucket but insisted on being called “Bouquet” just because it sounds fancy. She drove her husband, family and friends crazy trying to be better than they were.
I think some people have a little snob in them. They want to have a life of influence and affluence and everything that goes with it. Being satisfied with what they have isn’t enough. Snobs are always seeking the finest of everything and will spend time and treasure to get what they want in life.
Other people just want to make it day-to-day and are happy with the gifts of their real lives. I have made connections with people who are well off, but they were never snobbish. They were kind, and inclusive.
To me, being a snob is not a good look. We are all trying to get by, and perhaps showing grace by helping those in need is what we need more of. Snobs need some compassion because they might find themselves in need one day.
Daily Prompt – Was Today Typical
Today was a typical day of getting up, preparing lunch, eating breakfast and going to work then coming home. All these things are personally typical, but life is typically chaotic in a broader, global sense. Some things you can control like yourself, while other stuff, not so much. You do the best you can to make the world a better place. Hopefully good works will always be a typical part of the day. I would like typical and routine over the alternative, I don’t mind boring.
