Good 33º frost on the barn roof foggy
morning!

SLOW down!)
Scott Carpenter RIP
Malcolm Scott Carpenter (May 1, 1925 – October 10, 2013)
was an American test pilot, astronaut and aquanaut. He was one of the original seven astronauts
selected for NASA's Project Mercury in April
1959. Carpenter was the second American to orbit the Earth and the fourth
American in space, following Alan Shepard, Gus Grissom and John Glenn.
Yesterday 7:30 am...
and last evening about 6:38pm....
and one minute later ...
I called Jeannie and said, "LOOK at the sunset!" She
begrudgingly got up from her comfy chair and looked out. Surprise! It's
beautiful! Sorry I got you up girlfriend. xo
Here is GOOD news for my friends who are Bears fans
(Phil, Suzanne, Dan....) WHOOT WHOOT WHOOT.... Giants lost!!!!!! Yes.
And can you believe this sh*t... the name of the
Washington Redskins is going to have to be changed to please a few idiots of
American Indian heritage AND the IDIOT in the WHITE HOUSE (because he opened his
BIG mouth about something he AGAIN, SHOULD NOT HAVE!) .... because they said
it's like the "N" word. Oh for Pete's sake! What about the Atlanta Braves,
Cleveland Indians, Kansas City Chiefs, Brooklyn Redmen (lacrosse), Tomahawks
Lacrosse Club, Arcadia High Apaches, Scappoose High (Oregon) School Scappoose
Indians, Utah Utes, Mississaugh Tomahawks, and the Rogue River High School
Chieftains??????? It pisses me off! Those names were given in honor of American
Indian heritage!
Alex was looking forward to a unique way for her
boyfriend Eli to ask her to the Homecoming. Looks like he found it... a cookie
with "Will you go to home-coming with me?" Cute! Good job Eli!
Here is an interesting video... Disneyland
1955... several home movies put together for this.... The women and girls most
are wearing dresses or skirts and the men in suits or shirts and ties. What a
change from then to now.
(The music sucks on this video.... !)
I didn't have room to post my cooking adventure
yesterday so here it is... While Martin and Jake were working I was cookin'! As
I said, I put the red-ish heirloom cherry tomatoes in the crockpot and cooked
them along with garlic and a diced up jalapeño, then added in 3 bell peppers.
After that had cooked a good long time I transferred it
to a frying pan to cook it down. Added in mushrooms, and sliced
chipotle green olives.
Then I added in some
.... and canned it!
REALLY good, as I licked the pan clean!
Then it was time for breakfast
yesterday....
I sauteéd the bell pepper in Rosemary infused olive
oil... added eggs, seasoning, and put on the lid so they would cook through.
GOOD!!!

All I

and with Jeannie's idea will put one over my carport. Down by the barn is a
disker, I asked Jake if he would be interested in it... he said yes, so he's
going to come pick it up. Not quite like this one... but
close. Yeah, one more thing off my list!
Ok, all I
