Pumpkin Nut Bread.
I'm a believer there is no Pumpkin bread or banana bread .
Banana is a variety of nut bread.
They are all nut breads.

Speaking as a McMullen from the Elyria McMullens, this definitely sounds like some McMullen shenanigans.
“Girlfriend co-conspirator Molly Doughty“ is about as McMulleney as it gets.
“Elyria parakeet caper.“

My grandpa did. We're really proud of him for that. When Pearl harbor happened he was 16. He said "where's Pearl harbor" and they went back to their game.
A year later almost all those boys were dead. He was in Africa in a tank and was badly injured. Battle of Rome. Scraped over a year up Italy.

Cuomo won by 15% in places where average rent is under $2k.
Interesting how voters who don't suffer from rent increases and income inequality don't care about it as much.
Similar to why rural voters don't want to address homelessness.

My dad and my grandma (age 98) were at the first games in LA in 1959, including the game where 103,000 honored Roy Campanella.
They were at the Kirk Gibson game in '88.
They still watch nearly every game and were together for Game 7 when the Dodgers won their 9th world series in those 66 years.

Very emotional to see Kershaw save the day with 90 mph stuff.
Or to see Klein run out of gas and get out of that jam with no curveball and a weak fastball.
Or for the best pitcher ever, Koufax (who pitched a game 7 complete game shutout on a tired arm) in the stands watching.

Ok here's the proof Amazon's Prime day is a scam.
This audio mixer is 25% off selling for $75.
But next you see my email from Sept 16 recommending the mixer and referencing the $75 price.
They raised the price 33%, then put it on sale back to the same price.
