Hope whatever you are up to is fun and mostly relaxing. We made a last minute escape to PB due to unusually chilly and rainy weather in NY. It was a good decision. Hard to believe the unofficial start of summer is here and I already feel like its going to slip away fast.<\/p>\n<p>Since I am working on a large design project, not to mention my own, it&#8217;s going to be a summer of a lot of work with hopefully, some down time carved in between. We have a few trips planned and hope to be able to make a few quick beach trips, as well know summer goes by fast!<\/p>\n<p>OK, onward to my post this holiday weekend-<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">_________________________________________<\/p>\n<p><strong>1 A REMINDER OF THE MEANING OF MEMORIAL DAY <\/strong>We must all be reminded that this holiday weekend is so much more than just a fun long weekend that is the unofficial start to summer. It is a day to honor those who have so bravely given their lives and honor to our country. We all know freedom is never free and our country is great because of these men and women. I love this video\u00a0narrated by Ronald Reagan, definitely worth sharing!<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Memorial Day Tribute - &quot;Thank You&quot;\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/arSiv9PRo04?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>2 THE CUTEST RAFFIA BUCKET HAT AT A PRICE YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE!<\/strong> I saw this on someone and had to have it. I could not believe it was from Walmart and was $17.99! I love it so much I bought one first in tan and then in the black. Seriously, a super chic hat at a price I didn&#8217;t have to think twice about. Great for travel too as you can roll it up.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/on.ltk.com\/+h9-s4KwW41L-nrXJo1e7LA\"><em><strong>Click here<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img

Next, add in the sliced green onions, chopped cilantro, sliced almonds, and sesame seeds. If you want some extra crunch, toss in the crunchy chow mein noodles as well. Mix everything together gently so that it all blends nicely.<\/p>\n<h4>2. Dressing<\/h4>\n<p>In a separate small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey (or sugar), grated ginger, minced garlic, and a little salt and pepper. Keep whisking until everything is mixed well. You can also refrigerate this ahead of time if need be.<\/p>\n<h4>3. Combine and Serve:<\/h4>\n<p>Drizzle the dressing over your salad mixture, I do this a few minutes before serving.\u00a0 Toss it gently to ensure that all the ingredients are coated evenly in the dressing. I will sprinkle over some chopped cilantro and almonds on top for a finishing touch.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>7 SUNDAY&#8217;S SURVEY<\/strong> OK, wondering if you use ChatGPT or another AI model? I have to admit, its pretty darn amazing. What<em> doesn&#8217;t<\/em> it know? I try to limit how often I go to it as I don&#8217;t want to feel dependent upon it but I am amazed at what it can churn out.<\/p>\n<p>What isn&#8217;t so amazing is that all information inputted into these AI models are saved and used for training and improvement for their models. After 30 days, it says conversations are put in trash but many resources say it remains in their database. In a time of feeling like nothing is private, its a little unnerving.<\/p>\n<p>Just in case, you are not aware, there is a little button on top right that you can press which will start temporary chat. Meaning this information is not saved or stored and does not go into your history nor saved to help improve their models. Just an FYI.\u00a0 OK curious if you use it-<\/p>\n<p>Looks like this-<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-138273\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.enchantedhome.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screen-Shot-2026-05-24-at-8.31.17-AM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"357\" height=\"565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.enchantedhome.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screen-Shot-2026-05-24-at-8.31.17-AM.png 357w, https:\/\/wp.enchantedhome.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screen-Shot-2026-05-24-at-8.31.17-AM-190x300.png 190w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 357px) 100vw, 357px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\" charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.polldaddy.com\/p\/17037345.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/poll.fm\/17037345\">Do you use Chatgpt or another AI model?
