Domestic Goddess: Is this correct, if one would like to post/share a recipe, we do so here?  If so, was searching to see if there were separate recipe categories?

I had never heard of this either, and I'm guessing if the home team wins its first goal, then the bears are thrown?

Here's what the video's description stated.

Matt DiMarsico hammers home the one-time feed from Eli Sebastian to make it rain Teddy Bears. We collected over 5,610 teddy bears that will be donated to children's hospitals all over Northeastern Wisconsin. Thanks again to our presenting sponsor Fox Communities Credit Union and all of Gambler Nation who came out to support.

I also searched for another new to me, term, Hat Trick. And this is what I found.

Hat trick
noun

    Three goals scored by one player in one game, as in ice hockey. Three wickets taken in cricket by a bowler in three consecutive balls. Three consecutive wins or outstanding accomplishments by the same individual, such as a jockey in horse racing.

This is part of an article that I copied off the net a few months ago.  It's about music, and the positive  ways that our favorite music effects our brain.  It was written by Dr.Susan Rogers, a cognitive neuroscientist.

"When we listen to music we love, we experience pleasure in the form of a dopamine release in our brain. And over time, our brain learns to recognize the music we enjoy faster and releases the dopamine earlier",  says Susan Rogers, a cognitive neuroscientist .  "We get that feel-good rush just anticipating a favorite song. 
"One of the most powerful things music can do is to give our brain a rest. Listening to music we enjoy is one of the easiest and most reliable ways to activate our default mode network, or daydreaming mode.  This is what the brain does when it's not working or concentrating",  says Dr. Rogers. "This restorative state is essential to our well-being."

That Teddy Bear Toss is AMAZING!  I can't believe I never heard of it before.  There had to be thousands of teddys on the ice!  What lucky kids!

I had a good day today!  I got the freezer cleaned out and everything put back in and I ended up with two empty shelves.  Tomorrow, I'm going to moves some stuff out of the freezer that's attached to the fridge and fill those two shelves.  Then I'm going to finish emptying out the kitchen freezer and clean it before I put anything back in.  And I'm sure there's some stuff that won't go back in!

I hope you all had a good day...better than yesterday but not as good as tomorrow.  We had a beautiful day until about  6 P.M. and then we got lots of wind and lots of rain.  There was "stuff" blowing all over the neighborhood!  I have some things in my yard to return to neighbors and there is some of my stuff in the neighbor's yards!  Oh well, at least nothing seems to be broken and the electricity stayed on.  Tomorrow is another day! 

Sleep well. Wake refreshed and make tomorrow your own in every way.  And sneak back here and share it with us!

Don, --- I just recently learned about it. I think it's a great idea.  With hats (Hat Trick) what do they do with them all. Probably throw them out.

Good morning everyone.

We'll have to wait a couple of months to harvest any rhubarb here.

I hope everyone's having a great day!

I had a small patch of rhubarb years ago. No one except me liked it so it was rarely used. Since then it has vanished.

For years (years ago) I heard "Do you think the rain will hurt the rhubarb?" Often followed by "Not if it's in cans".  Have no idea where that originated.
