There weren't too many wet days this past month; but every time the skies would roll out grey and dull, I'd listen to September In The Rain! I truly believe there is an Oscar Peterson song to fit any variation of my moods!

I stumbled across a YouTube video recommending a short little manga called Bibliomania and thought "Why not it's only 12 chapters." I finished it in like half an hour and honestly I feel exactly the same way I did when I first saw an amazing violinist in the Montreal metro wearing a realistic dog head mask.
Great work of art, I think I liked it, but what the fuck.

I rang Ava early this morning and played Oscar Peterson's I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm in lieu of Happy Birthday!Although, technically, physically; I don't. We're at the moment on different continents, and often, we're not even on the same day. But we've got each other, and we're happy; and that, I believe, does keep us warm, alright!

National Mustard Day
Ground from the seeds of a mustard plant, mustard is one of America’s favorite condiments. Food lovers can celebrate this versatile topping on National Mustard Day, August 6. The National Mustard Museum was the originator of the holiday and celebrates the day every first Saturday in August. Guests who visit the museum on  this special day can take part in a wide variety of games and even try a free hot dog and mustard sampling. Of course, you don’t have to go to the museum to have fun. Be sure to try out as many mustards as possible: the standard yellow American style, French Dijon mustard, Bavarian sweet mustard and the tangy, beer mustard!
When is National Mustard Day 2022?
National Mustard Day is celebrated annually on the first Saturday in August.
History of National Mustard Day
Mustard has been among the most used spices in the world for centuries. Believed to have originated in Ancient Egypt, it was used for medicinal purposes as well as a spice. The Greeks and Romans followed suit, utilizing mustard for both flavoring and as a herbal remedy. Mustard was prescribed as a cure for a range of ailments, from snakebites to hysteria.
The mustard arrived in Northern France where it was gradually cultivated by local monks. The word ‘mustard’ is derived from the word ‘mosto’ or ‘grape muss’ — a type of unfermented wine that hasn’t matured and was mixed with mustard seeds by the French monks. Monasteries started producing large amounts of mustard in the 9th century, from which they generated even larger amounts of income through sales.
Prepared mustard or modern mustard as we know it, was created in Dijon, France in the 13th century. The preparation of this condiment is thanks to the efforts of Pope John XXII of Avignon, who loved mustard and created a special post of Grand Moustardier du Pape or the Grand Mustard-Maker, to which he appointed his nephew.
At the beginning of the 19th century, mustard was finely milled into powder by the world’s first mustard millers, the British. This is how mustard became an industrial-level food ingredient. In 1904, the modern yellow mustard was introduced in Rochester, New York, from where it became popular due to its pairing with the classic American hot dog.

Traditions
On National Mustard Day, grab the mustard and pair it with different food items. Used as a condiment for cheeses, meat, and bread food items such as hamburgers, sandwiches, hot dogs, and even pizza, its versatility is enjoyed today by food lovers everywhere.
Mustard is also a fantastic dressing for salads, an ingredient for sauces, and used in some marinades. If mustard is not being used as a condiment or key ingredient, then its many benefits are being enjoyed in the form of mustard seeds, and mustard oil, both of which have proven benefits for the skin and body.
National Mustard Day Activities
Mustard is the favorite topping for hot dogs
It’s good for you
You can put it on almost anything
A National Hot Dog and Sausage Council survey found that 71% of people confirm mustard as their top hot dog condiment. It’s a staple at baseball games and other sporting events, always on hand to supplement the concession stand food. It’s the perfect garnish for a tasty treat — just make sure you pick up an extra napkin so you don’t spill any on your shirt!
It's well-known in science circles that the elements found in mustard seeds can stop cancer cell growth. Mustard is also used as a remedy for muscle pains and certain types of skin disorders. Mustard seeds come with high levels of calcium, magnesium and potassium.  As a great addition to some of your favorite foods, mustard is a low-calorie, low-sugar alternative to other condiments.
Mustard isn’t just for hot dogs. With all the varieties, it’s the condiment for creatives: if you can dream it, you can achieve it! Try out a breakfast casserole infused with honey Dijon. Bake up some mustard-roasted potatoes. Glaze a ham with honey mustard. If you can’t let go of your traditional roots, have a Chicago-style hot dog with yellow mustard, chopped onions, relish, a pickle spear and tomato slices.
5 Facts About Mustard That You Don’t Know
Plant vs. condiment
More than just a condiment
Broccoli is mustard’s cousin
Mustard on the go
There is no ‘mustard yellow’
Mustard is a plant, and prepared mustard is a condiment — an important distinction to make.

As part of the Brassica family, mustard plants are relatives of broccoli.
King Louis XI refused to travel without mustard.

Why We Love National Mustard Day
You can learn all about it at the National Mustard Museum
Host a mustard-tasting
Make your own mustard
Located in Middleton, Wisconsin, the National Mustard Museum is the birthplace of National Mustard Day and the Holy Grail for mustard lovers. Started by Barry Levenson in 1992, the museum is home to nearly 6,000 different types of mustards from all over the world. Stop by to see the Great Wall of Mustard, an antique collection of mustard pots, and try out a free mustard tasting! This free museum is open seven days a week.
Serve up pretzel rods, hot dog bites and pita bread for guests to test out as many types of mustard, as possible. Hit up your local store to buy out their mustard varieties. You should even try out a local artisan market to see if you can pick up additional, hard-to-find mustards. Place the different kinds in small serving dishes and let everyone try out all the combinations of snacks and toppings.
Who says that French’s and Grey Poupon should have the monopoly on good mustard? Try out your own recipe on National Mustard Day. Soak mustard seeds for a full day in your liquid of choice: vinegar, water, wine or even beer. Then, grind up the seeds in a food processor. Make the mustard to your liking by adding your favorite flavors, like brown sugar, honey or tarragon.
