Brunch Tap Rock ~ Sami's Pictures ~ Deer Block ~ Fawns & Doe ~ Coquette Bread ~ Hill-Liar-y's Email ~ Erika ~ Lemon Drop Martini


Good 50º somewhat cloudy/smokey morning.

The temps weren't too high yesterday, I think the high 80ºs but the smoke came in here heavy by afternoon. The smoke makes for pretty sunsets.... the only good thing! 8:15pm:
Yesterday morning I headed into Grants Pass to to meet Brian Jen Tucker and Sami at Tap Rock for brunch. OINK!!!!

The Rogue River, Caveman Bridge, Tap Rock on the left...

Sami's monster waffles, whip cream, chocolate syrup, sausage, and roll.

Brian's scrambled eggs, bacon, and biscuit and gravy...

Poor Tucker, hasn't eaten in a week!

Jen's oatmeal and strawberries....

Bobo's vegetarian omelette and fruit. (YUMMMMMM!)

Sami wanted to take pictures with my camera.... she had fun. So I made a Smilebox of her pictures....

I came back to RR and stopped in at Ace to get some deer blocks.
The deer love them... something to nibble on. When I got here the momma deer and two of her fawns were inside my front yard. How those babies got over the fence is the question. I walked towards the gate, mom bolted over the fence, and I opened the gate. The fawns were in a panic. I walked to the back door and when I came through the house and looked out the babies were with their mom!

I put out a deer block in the front by the water tub and one in the back on the grass... When I got up this morning the buck was nibbling on the one in the back.
In the afternoon I looked out and momma doe and one baby were in the yard. I finally figured out how the babies get in the yard... they go through the big openings in the fence!


Baby started nursing on mom, taken through the porch rail, you can see how the mom's skin/fur looks really bad.....


The bread loaf I bought at 7 Oaks Farm the other day comes from a local Central Point bakery. If you live in this area you can purchase the bread, not only at 7 Oaks, but also at Rogue Creamery, Ashland and Medford Farmers Markets...

Check their home page... and then check the breads they make:
This came from email pal, Gator...... Hill-liar-y's emails...

After chores I made a lemon drop martini... this time on the rocks. No typical sugar coated rim. UGH. Too sweet. But, this mix is really GOOD!



Wasn't hungry for dinner so had some veggie chips with my martini. Chair time. TV. Blue Bloods and a Hallmark movie
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Monday. Ciao.
