National Vichyssoise Day.

vichy

a thick soup made of puréed leeks, onions, potatoes, cream, and chicken stock.   It is traditionally served cold.  And here’s a surprise, although it sounds French, it was originally first concocted here in America. 

Louis Diat, a chef at the Ritz-Carlton in New York City, is most often credited with its (re)invention.

Head to the Animal Services Center of the Mesilla Valley and check out “Manhattan.”

3551 Bataan Memorial Highway in Las Cruces

Manhattan is a calm, cool, and collected and about one year old.  He gets along welll with his kennel mates and would do well in a multi-dog home.

The 101 number one song of the day established a group with a reputation for “flops” as their legendary record label’s go to girls -

(That’s next) Four months earlier, they were known as the “No Hits” because of a succession of songs that went nowhere. But suddenly they had a number one hit which was not at all unprecedented at Motown but until the time, no one who recorded for the that company was able to repeat that feat. But with the arrival of the song you’re about at the top of the charts, they had a second number one song making them the first in an incredible stable of artists and placing them squarely in the forefront. And that brings us to the 101 number one song of the day which was on top on November 18, 1964 for the Supremes. (Baby Love)
