Good 51º clear birds chirping morning. Watched the L.A. news

think that was Arizona! We were at 91º.

Re today's date...... 6-9 ... we won't go there!
OMG, this will put a smile on your face... got it from George Bachmeier
(LASD ret)...Thanks George! These poor ducks had never seen water.
Yesterday I got a call from Aaron, the landscape gardener
..the one who didn't show up the day before. Poor guy, his truck broke down and
he didn't get home til midnight. Forgave him. He came over and we talked about
the garden and the walkway by the front door. He's got some good ideas, will
help with the garden, and he's a super nice guy. And a dog lover! He'll be here
on Monday to fix a water problem in the garden and then have a date he can start
on the repair of the raised beds and putting down new gravel etc. Probably in 2
weeks.
As for chores yesterday was beyond exciting. I vacuumed,
dusted, used a pumice stone in the toilet to remove stains from the hard water.
I was going to mow but a doe was laying under the trampoline and one by a bush
and I didn't want to disturb them.
So I washed the golf cart... even with the soaked grass, the
Bruise decides to lay under it in the shade... NUT!
Then, I made watermelon juice for a martini.....
Use the small seedless watermelons. Cut up into pieces and put in food
processor. Process until liquid. Strain. I like 1 part watermelon to 1 part
vodka.
Historically this date....
1856 – Five-hundred Mormons leave
Iowa City, Iowa, and
head west for Salt Lake City carrying
all their possessions in two-wheeled handcarts.
1953 – Flint-Worcester
tornado outbreak sequence: a tornado spawned from the same storm system as
the Flint tornado hits in Worcester,
Massachusetts, killing 94.
1972 – Severe rainfall causes a dam
in the Black Hills of South Dakota to burst,
creating a flood that
kills 238 people and causes $160 million in damage.
2007 – In horseracing, Rags to Riches
was the first filly in 106 years to win the Belmont Stakes Belmont Stakes.
And births this date include....
(with his twin daughters, his wife, and son)
...one of my all time favorite Patriots players. Not only accomplished
football player, but a saxophonist and played with the Boston Pops! He had a
stroke in 2005, came back to play and has 3 SuperBowl rings! Now works for
ESPN.
Dinner was Rosetto Chicken & Herb ravioli. I thawed it and sauteéd it,
then boiled it. Usually I do it the other way around, but it worked fine. Then I
put it back in the pan with drained diced tomatoes, dried leeks, and some of
Safeway's Select Simmer Sauce. This one is Lemon Butter. It's made with a blend
of butter, crisp white wine, onions, zesty lemon, and garlic. OMGOOOOOD! RUN to
Safeway and buy some!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Sunday. Brian I hope you and Tucker have a
great golf game. PICTURES please!!! Ciao.

Good morning,
That pie looks so yummy. Wish I had some right now!!!!!
You were a busy bumble bee yesterday. After all your chores, the watermelon martini was well deserved.
Interesting history stuff, have not read all of it, will go back to finish, thanks for the time and effort.
Your dinner looked scrumptious. I would have never thought to saute the pasta, then boil it. Hmmmmmm Sure looked good. Will have to try that sauce.
Have fun mowing. Chat later. xo

Another quickie note.

xo,

That evil Richard R, the Night Stalker attacked a family here in Diamond Bar. It was horrible and everyone was terrified. That vermin should have been put to death long ago but, this is California and the lefties here are ok with killing babies but letting monsters like this live!! (Sorry but it infuriates me!!)
Hey, Bruiser is no nut! He is one smart kitty! I can imagine as hot as it was it was comfy in that wet grass in the shade of the golf cart. :) Such a cutie!
Funny, I had a watermelon Margarita last night at Olive Garden. I decided that I like the original better.
Glad your landscaping guy called and came over. I was still wondering why he didn't CALL you yesterday. No doubt he has a cell phone?
mmmm Just looking at that pie made my mouth water. Yum!
XO Trisha
Doesn't everyone love dogs? Well, other than the bird next door. The dog ate it.
I was on the bleachers with Trisha when I learned the Night Stalker struck around the corner from here. Gerry was on a business trip. Just me, the boys and double locks on everything. Thank God we had air conditioning because there were no windows left open that summer.
Strawberry Rhubarb pie? Pass the vanilla ice cream.
LOVE the doe under the trampoline.
