Good 45ยบ clear skies morning.
Happy Throw Back Thursday... Here is Brian with his "hippy hair" and
Kristen in the 'table tent' at Grandma & Granddaddy's house... 1972:
That is my teddy bear she's holding. It was given to me by my Aunt Agnes
when I was born. He's still with me, upstairs in the cedar chest!
This is another amazing video... a wild raven perches on a
fence of a human's farm and squawks for help because he has porcupine quills
stuck in the side of his head.
Yesterday morning Ted Evans of Evans Pest Control came out. His company
info:
Pest Control, Weed Control 541-772-4541

Ted has been coming out here and spraying my roads and around the out
buildings and barn for a number of years. If you need his weed or pest services,
I highly recommend him!
Yesterday he sprayed all my garden weeds, creek weeds/grass, and berry
bushes. He's thorough and works fast. He was here just over an hour.
Here's a couple of Oregon vanity plates:

May 22nd
National Vanilla Pudding Day
Pineapple Pudding Pie from Patty.....
:o)
Mix in large bowl one large can of crushed pineapple (I used the 20
oz size) and one large instant vanilla pudding box. Stir well, spoon into graham
cracker crust. Refrigerate. Top each slice with dollop of Cool Whip and a
Maraschino Cherry!
This is REALLY good.... easy.....
On
line there are many variations of this. Some use an 8oz can of pineapple and a
small instant pudding and 1 cup of sour cream.. one called for 2 boxes of
pudding and 8oz pineapple .. one called for 1 small box of pudding, 1 cup cool
whip, 1 cup pineapple yogurt... Mine is YUMMMY but I think a smaller can of
pineapple would make it set up stiffer and next time I make it I'll put in the
sour cream too.
