Good 43º morning. More rain on the way....
Got the following from Onion Mike. Just in case you weren't aware of the dangers. A good warning prior to the holidays:
ALCOHOL AND ICE....please read!!!
When you drink vodka over ice, it can give you kidney failure.
When you drink rum over ice, it can give you liver failure.
When you drink whiskey over ice, it can give you heart
problems.
When you drink gin over ice, it can give you brain problems.
Apparently, ice is really bad for you.
Warn all your friends.
Yesterday I baked "Mother's Killer Biscuits" for the dinner one in our Law Enforcement group, Dennis Offerman (former Benicia, I think, ... near SF) is putting on for the Grants Pass/Josephine Co police, deputies, paramedics, and fire on Thanksgiving. These biscuits are really awesome. Been making them for over 30 years. A family holiday staple. You need 2 packages of Grands biscuits, 1 cube butter, a bundt pan. Arrange biscuits in a circle in the pan on their side. Melt butter in microwave (30 seconds) and pour over the biscuits. Bake at 350º for approx 30-37 minutes (depending on you oven and altitude... mine took 37) until dark golden brown on top. Put on rack to cool. After about 10 minutes turn out onto a plate.
You make these, and you will thank me!
I went outside and there were the turkeys .... wayyyyyyy down in the lower section. They saw me and made a bee-line this way....
So, since I had thrown out some grub for the birds and gray squirrels they decided it was for them!
They seem to be quite happy they are not on tomorrow's menu!
Interesting sunset yesterday.....
We got more rain, between 11am yesterday and this morning....
Maggs just lay on the Princess Bed and slept through most of it...
Today is a dear sweet friend's birthday, Gracie Elliott, married to Jack, both former LASD. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRACIE!!! Love you girl. I hope your day is SPECIAL!
Historically this date.....
I still have some old Life magazines. My friend and I used to make airplanes out of the covers and attach wooden matches to the wings and toss them off the roof at my Grandma's and watch them crash on the cement and burn! LOL.
1981 – Iran-Contra Affair: Ronald Reagan signs the top secret National Security Decision Directive 17 (NSDD-17), giving the Central Intelligence Agency the authority to recruit and support Contra rebels in Nicaragua.
And births this date include....
... another of those long lasting Hollyweird marriages.. Juliet Mills since 1980 (although she had 2 previous)
... very sad about her death at 22 and the man who murdered her got away with only 4 years in prison!
He has changed his name and is a 'chef' up here in the Pacific Northwest! Yikes!
Kristen's foot surgery went well. She is home with her foot up. Swollen, but on the mend.
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Hump Day.
