It’s overcast, about 45 and drizzly all day today. I was sitting by the kitchen window doing a bit of paper work. The window looks out over the deck. Maybe it was the weather, but we had quite a crowd at the bird feeders today. In no more than a half hour all these […]
We need to learn Pachyderm speak. I think they’re a sentient life form. Really.
Every day is elephant appreciation day!
First, meet the new baby at the Baltimore Zoo- just too cute for words:
Also, to totally blow your mind. Watch the elephant paint! First I said, “sure, it’s a guy with a elephant trunk glove […]
Elton John, as a performer, is okay. I have some favorite songs. Back during the CB radio era, my “handle” was LA Lady. We even have a “Greatest Hits” cassette around here somewhere.
I’m not sure I like him as a person. He’s a rude guest. Back during the 2004 election he ticked me off with […]
We watched Michael Moore’s latest film, Sicko, last night. He did a good job pointing out the outrageous, greed driven mess that is “the health industry” in America. Please watch it. Rent it, or check it out at the library. It gives us all something to think about.
There are moments in the […]
Well, the cantaloupe we had last week was from Costa Rica, not Honduras where some cantaloupes sold in the US recently were found to be contaminated with salmonella. Aren’t travelers to anywhere pretty much told to avoid local fresh fruits and vegetables just because the water (and what’s swimming in it) is different? Isn’t that […]
It’s “hiding” in the oven. I didn’t make a feast for the two of us. When I saw what a nice, spiral sliced ham goes for in today’s icky economy, I couldn’t justify the cost for dinner for two. Not to mention it would end up being at least four dinners, and who knows how […]
It’s Beatles week around here. Wednesday night I finally got to see Across The Universe. I knew I would love it. They grabbed me with the first scene: Jude sitting alone on the beach singing, “is there anybody going to listen to my story?” Mike watched it with me and while he isn’t much of […]
I love that phrase! Lindsay Wagner (the original Bionic Woman) uses the term in a commercial for that bed that has the numbers. I don’t think I got my recuperative sleep last night. I feel a bit achy and could go back to bed easily. I have “weather dogs”- when it’s gray and drizzily, […]
The Red Bellied Woodpeckers started showing up at the bird feeder again a few weeks ago. They were gone for the worst part of Winter. This isn’t my picture- I had to find one released to the public. They’re so shy and skittish I haven’t had any luck getting near one with my camera. They […]
