Good 55º cloudy and more rain coming morning. Rain started in
the evening here yesterday. Jeannie said it rained all day in Grants Pass.
Funny what a 10 mile difference can make for weather. No rain until late and
then on and off all night. Got just over 1/4".
The sun never came out yesterday and warmed to 61º.
The turkeys were out and about... they were happy it wasn't
raining.....

PICTURE OF THE DAY...
The Blue Angels were practicing for the Fleet Week in SF and a bystander
caught this awesome photo...
I went into town to put a check in the bank, pick up a package at the post
office and while there ran into one of the Marine Corps League guys and bought a
raffle ticket from him. It's a fund raiser for our league. The prize is $700 at
Sportman's Warehouse. Then to the market for celery and a carrot, tomatoes, and
green onions.
Dinner was a "what's in the fridge and cupboard" fried rice.
Using the left over salmon and mushrooms from the night before I added a can of
artichoke hearts (cut into quarters), green onions, celery, carrot, and 2
different kinds of rice.. basmati and jasmine. I cooked the rice in the rice
cooker and let it cool. Next I chopped the celery and onion and put them in the
pan with butter and olive oil. Cooked til nearly tender, then added in the
grated carrot, chopped tomatoes, and left over mushrooms. Stir and cook until
heated well.
Next in went the artichoke hearts and black olives and the
salmon I broke up. Heat on low for about 30 minutes. Transfer to another pan to
keep warm. Put olive oil in skillet and add cooled rice. Break up and stir.
Adding more oil if needed. Cook on low for about 30 minutes. Add in the
previously cooked veggies and salmon. Drizzle with soy sauce, my fav is Tabasco
Soy Sauce. Spicy! Add in salt and pepper to taste.
YUMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!
Don't forget the sunset solar eclipse today ... if you live
where there is no cloud cover!!!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy TBT. Ciao.
