Stayin' Alive ~ Bob's Big Boy ~ Silly Sign ~ Popped Chickpeas!


Good 32º morning. Ice all over the barn roof and between the rows of grass in the pastures. The vineyard up the road had their giant propellers going last night into this morning. Noisy!


Virus traced to reusable grocery bag. Bottom line... wash the bag after coming back from the store with sanitizer wipes or wash in the washing machine!



Here is a video of Rita Hayworth. Amazing old dancing shots but more amazing is the editing someone did. Thanks for this Debbie Flores! The background music is the Bee Gees singing Stayin' Alive. Awesome!

Coming back down the hill into our valley....
And, back home......


 
Watching Dr. Oz and he was giving suggestions for overly salty or sweet snack high calorie replacements.... this one sounded interesting... a tasty little snack, one that's actually good for you...
Drain a can of garbanzo beans (chickpeas), heat a tablespoon of olive oil and add the garbanzo beans and sauté until they pop..... Takes about 20 minutes. Then I put them on a paper towel and sprinkled on garlic powder on some of them, Bob's Seasoning Salt on some, and Bacon Salt on some. Really tasty!
(sorry...pictures are lousy, was using my fish eye lens...) You can use any seasoning you like... experiment!


All I know. Nuff said. Happy Thursday. Ciao.
