Sicilian Lemonade
Rick Steves was visiting Sicily (pretty place) and he and "my friend and fellow tour guide" stopped at a street-side café for a glass of lemonade.  It's so simple I could do it thus, it appeals.
Tall glass, lots of ice, amount of pure lemon juice that appeals; fill up with soda water and a pinch of sea salt.  My first thought was, "Do-it-yourself Gatorade?"  Sure sounds like it would be good for body fluid replenishing in the summer.  If you already have your 2020 Calendar, mark July for this version of lemonade.  Going to France?  Same recipe minus the salt and sugar added instead.

Vaping Discourse in White House meeting with manufacturers
 I wonder which seller put in this ad in Vaporous, The Journal of the Perpetually Wreathed 

Tired of your teen age kids?  Endless whining, eternal toilet tongues, refusal to help around the house - and then think of forth-coming university fees for these ungrateful barbarians?  Eliminate all worries and irritations, introduce them to your neighborhood vape dealer!  The oils are not expensive - $2.99 for  10 ml; $6.99 for 30 ml. and for holidays, 480 ml for $59.99

It's habit-forming, very bad for you and comes in seductive sounding flavors.

The Summer Solstice, a combination of ripe oranges, strawberries, pineapple, banana and coconut rum.

The Cowboy Cooler, mixed berries (weren't specified), blueberry cheesecake and menthol

Other popular taste sensations - buttered popcorn, cotton candy, vanilla, strawberry and banana.

Just make sure your health insurance is up to date - the creamy varieties -ice creams, cheesecakes are said to be lethal to the vapor's lungs.

 On the other hand … certainly solves disrespect around the house on a daily basis...when they can't mouth off because they can't breathe...You did your job as a caring parent; you told them it was bad stuff, but did they listen?   You reap what you sow is still a truism.
