Rain ~ Turkey Babies ~ Maple Tree ~ Bruiser ~ Sunday Football Scores ~ Tigers & Pumpkins ~ Fire/Bruise/Dude/Martini ~ Deviled Eggs

Good 48º drizzling morning.

Yesterday only warmed to a high of 59º  ... and stayed overcast

until the clouds came down on the mountain....

Then about 3pm it started raining! OMG. It was "a chance"... LOL. Good chance!! That didn't last long, but by late evening it started again and on and off all night. So far another 1/4" has fallen.

 

My morning coffee this time of year..

 

Outside while Dude runs to the trees.... a couple momma turkeys and a Jake and 3 babies were out there... surprised me, the were not scared!

My maple tree in the back... so pretty and brilliant!

After Dude is "finished" with his morning duty he comes back in. Then I make a cup of coffee and work on the next day's blog and read my email. Lots of times it is impossible to write as the Bruise makes himself totally comfortable in the middle of everything!

Breakfast... cottage cheese topped with shredded chicken, drops of sriracha mayo and a couple spider deviled eggs.. and the rest of the olives... YUMMMMMY!

 

Looks like the Kansas Royals have beat the NY Mets out of the World Series.

 

Yesterday's football scores...

 

And tonight, Monday Night Football:

 

Great Cats of the World Park in Cave Junction posted these pictures. In the first one are the white and yellow tiger kittens I got to hold on my birthday!!

They sure seem to love pumpkins!!!

Later I ran "5 Miles" down to the trash can and put it up on the road. Stopped at PJ and Dave's. Had some floor mats that are padded. Dave could use them by his workbench in his shop. He was happy. Dude, er 5 Miles, was happy to pee on every bush on their property!

 

Afternoon... chair, football, martini ... ahhhhh..... We also had a fire in the wood stove..

Bruiser got snuggy in my slippers... and Dude stretched out..

Made the martini with pickled asparagus. Mmmmmmm

 

All I know. Happy Monday. Nuff said. Ciao.

November 2nd

National Deviled Egg Day

(Shoot, I made those spider deviled eggs two days too soon!)

Don't limit yourself... add new things to the deviled eggs... I like pesto in some, diced bacon and diced tomatoes, ranch dressing, smoked salmon, guacamole instead of mayo, blue cheese & buffalo wing sauce....... Get creative!
