Good 52º a few wispy clouds morning.
You can just see the moon going down over my mountain....(top

While I was out taking pictures I noticed the bumble bees sleeping on the
lavender stalks and in the artichoke flowers...
England and the world is all a twitter about the new prince being born
yesterday. Glad they have something to be happy about, because folks in this
country are sure still dragging out that Zimmerman verdict. Now Stevie Wonder,
Jay Z, Kanye, and Madonna are boycotting the state of Florida in protest. Oh,
come on people! Madonna? Geeeeze......... There certainly are more important
things going on and things that need attention. Doesn't anyone care about the
flag draped caskets coming home instead of a dead druggie burglar????
Ok, off the
I was asked about the hats........
William Holden - Steve McQueen - Ben Johnson ~ Michael Landon
We had a couple Reserve Deputies who worked at the Sheriff's
Biscailuz Pistol Range in ELA, who worked in the movie industry. They liked
Jerry (he was the armorer for the department the last half of his Deputy
career), and they knew he loved cowboy stuff, so they brought him the hats. They are
autographed inside.
This was sent to me by Ann Ramirez (LASD ret) and I can't
recall if I posted it or not ... this IS Bruiser:
Deewayne Honeee P-berger sent this ... pour a cup of coffee or
wine, depending, and sit back and watch this high definition view of Yosemite.
Awesome!

Messing in the kitchen I had watched a video on how to peel garlic fast.
Decided to see if it really worked, but didn't want to peel a whole
head, just a few cloves. I took two matching bowls, pulled some cloves off the
head of garlic, put them in the bowl, put the other bowl over the top, and shook
them HARD for a few seconds.... Voilá...
Jeannie tried this, using two plastic bowls and it worked! Saw another
video where the chef put the garlic cloves in a drink shaker...same result!
Awesome! SOOOO easy and fast!
Yesterday I was shopping... James Van Praag was to be giving a show in
September at the Rogue Theater. I stopped in to buy tickets, but the show
manager said the date has been changed, and there was no indication when!
Grrrrr..... Stopped in to see Brian then off to Safeway. My car thermometer said
it was hot!
But here at home the temp was 99º. I don't know where the thermometer in a
car is located, but it must pick up heat from the ground or the engine. Guys?
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Tuesday. Ciao.

I was stationed on an RCAF base in Northern Quebec when all this was going on, and of course it was on TV there. One of the USAF exchange officers was married to an English girl, and she turned to him and said (in her VEDDY British accent), "Tell me, Jerry, do you think the colonies are really ready for self government/"
ROFLMAO!!

Hi Sue,
Well, I've missed some responses I was going to send you, now I hope I can remember the latest ones----
First of all I love the cowboy hats that were given Jerry WOW! what a resume of talent those hats have.&
what a nice legacy for your family, whoever, they go to someday.
Ah! the peanut butter & mayo combo, with grapes got to try that ! and the "garlic shake & peel "
Thank you for all the great recipes & ideas !
Hugs, Lovella ( LUV )
I am a day late in commenting on this one. I had to tell you that John loved the sound of the green grapes with the mayo and p. butter.
He told me you put them in the freezer but I told him I didn't think so. SO I had to come back and look! You said "refrigerate", not freeze! HA!! He wants me to make some.
I absolutely loved the garlic peeling method! I dearly hate using fresh garlic because of the peeling! I use the minced kind in the jar. Thanks for this great tip!!
XO Trisha
Trish, the grape salad is great but best room temp. You can freeze grapes and put them in your wine to keep it cold and keep from diluting the wine. xo
