Egg Burrito ~ Momma Bird ~ Asian Fish ~ Dinner Salad


Good clear sunny 46º morning.


Breakfast yesterday was an egg/cheese/chili sauce/tomato burrito...
 

 

In and out doing yard/housework all day.. .standing in the kitchen window saw momma bird come feed her babies....
 


I know I posted this before but Patty sent it and so thought I'd better post again to remind you... All the shrimp in the markets comes from Vietnam, Thailand, or China... do not buy it. All the shrimp in restaurants comes from Asia also. I have found a restaurant supply in Medford, Cash and Carry, that has shrimp "caught off the Texas coast". That is the only one I will buy. This is about how catfish are raised for sale in Vietnam. This video will disgust you:

Oh I love Richard Scarry books. I bought the whole collection for my boys. They are still here in a book case and I will give them to Isabella. Well, maybe I will keep them here for the other grand children when they come along.

Glad Villa allowed your family to leave Mexico without harming them. I must tell you this every year that Art Herrera's grandfather was Villa right hand general in his army. He was an outlaw here in the states and had to sneek over to visit his wife and children.

Burritos and salad look yummy!!

Interesting about Art's grandfather. What amazed me was how these 'soldiers' would pose forever! I have another picture of my mother on a horse with one of them. xo
