Free Pancakes Today at IHOP
IHOP plans on doing this by offering a free short stack of buttermilk pancakes and inviting people to make donations to the charities.
This is not the first time IHOP has celebrated National Pancake Day.
Last year pancake lovers donated $1.5 million dollars to children's charities and IHOP served up 2.5 million free pancakes, which they estimate, would have reached nearly 20 miles high.
You can receive your free short stack from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM today only.
So enjoy a free meal and support children's charities all at the same time.

Vintage Postage Stamps From Olympic Games
After an interruption of eight years due to the First World War, the Olympic Games returned to action in Antwerp. The Belgian city, which had been severely bombarded during the war, was chosen to host the Games shortly after the end of the conflict. See many more vintage stamp images here.

Tuesday Morning in February
ERY beautiful flowers make everything look better. I woke up this morning to a dusting of snow and a dreary gray day. Everything's white again. I thought some images of flowers might cheer everyone up.The font is seventeenth century French scanned from one of my antiquarian books. I thought it was perfect for this post.
"From December to March, there are for many of
us three gardens: the garden outdoors,
the garden of pots and bowls in the house,
and the garden of the mind's eye." - Katherine S. White

Delightful Bedroom
I love everything about this bedroom. The red and white ticking duvet cover, the feedbag pillow with several red stripes, the putty gray walls, and especially the white interior shutters. I'd love to have a window like this behind my bed. Absolutely fabulous. I love my actual bedroom very much but this one caught my eye...especially since bedtime is approaching and tonight is a great TV night. I always watch prime time in bed.See you tomorrow. xo, Rosemary

540,000 Miles, Same Owner Same Engine
This is an unusual love story involving an 89-year-old woman and her beloved car named Chariot. The two have been together for decades and traveled more than 540,000 miles across this nation's highways and side streets. Chariot is a 1964 Mercury Comet Caliente. The car and the woman have traveled to the moon and back...over half-a-million miles together. Awesome!
This information was written in 2007. She's now 91 going on 92 and I think Chariot has more than 560,000 miles on her. Watch the video and be inspired. I'm going to show it to the men at my garage and tell them I want to make an appointment for my new best friend. She insists on staying with her car while its being worked on or she goes elsewhere. She's a mechanic's worst nightmare. I love her; Rachel is my new hero. Don't forget to watch the Rachel Updates too. She gives new meaning to the word frugality. I look forward to your comments. Don't forget to share with your friends.
Many thanks to Penny and Randy who sent me the link.
