Good 54ยบ foggy (?) morning.
Yesterday afternoon Ashland and parts of South Medford were getting hit by
hail. Pear growers are worried, as the hail scars the fruit. We got rain, about
10-15 minutes of hard rain. Nice, but the wind was still blowing the fires.
Took this about 3:15pm just before the rain started....
Here is the latest fire info from the So. Cal fires.... from
my friend Joan in Palm Dessert.
This is a riot... my friend Dee Yellin sent it .... Cats!
OMG.
Yesterday I had the vacuum out, Bruiser was eating, so I took the nozzle and just put it at the end of his tail.... just enough to make it wiggle...he did nothing, just kept eating!
Yesterday was a "putter" day. Laundry, vacuuming (ugh), dusting.......
I posted this a year ago today.... still some mouth wateringly good
ideas...
Also, I like to mix taco seasoning with mayonnaise as a spread on cooked
corn .. or mix in hot sauce, or chili sauce, or pesto, or add taco seasoning to
butter and mix well ... use to slather on cooked corn. Sprinkle on some Parmesan
cheese. Get out of your "butter only on corn" rut!
A birthday today ... friend Gail Harris, wife of Just Plain Bruce
Harris (LASD Ret) is celebrating her special day. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GAIL!!!
And, Patty & Cliff's son Chuck and his bride Linda are
celebrating their anniversary today. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY KIDS!!!
The Bruise..... people have been asking about him... he's good, went on one
of his treks and came back.
Historically this date..
1929 – Babe Ruth becomes the first baseball player to hit 500 home runs in his career with a
home run at League Park in Cleveland, Ohio.
1942 – Actress Hedy Lamarr and composer George Antheil receive a
patent for a Frequency-hopping
spread spectrum communication system that later became the basis for modern
technologies in wireless telephones and Wi-Fi.
And births this date include...
Two Steves! Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak!
Sad to read Eydie Gorme died.
Happy to read that San Diego girl who had been kidnapped was located and
safe. The perp was shot by the FBI!! YEAH!
Dinner last night.... Soba noodles with sauce, chorizo, celery, carrots,
tomatoes, baby spinach... Cook chorizo, add noodles and veggies, add sauce.
Easy. GOOD!!!!
All I know. Happy Sunday. Nuff said. Ciao.

Son and Daughter Day
(Kristen and Brian)
Son and Daughter Day is a day to spend with your children. After all,
your son and daughter are the joy of your life. We hope that everyone reading
this has the opportunity in their life to see these joys born and raised
happily, and successfully.
Today is a great day to spend with your son and daughter. It's not a day of
gift giving....except for the gift of time. If your son and daughter are still
young and live at home with you, be ever aware that time goes by quickly. So,
spend as much of today and everyday in their company.
