It's been so hot here that there have been NO hummingbirds around, except for this morning... I saw ONE! Extreme heat
and draught can kill hummingbirds. In this area we have Rufous Hummingbirds.
They do not migrate and stay the winter. Our winters are very mild... with maybe
snow a couple of times that lasts 2-3 days. Never had to chain up or shovel. So,
I'm thinking the hummers have gone more towards the coast to get out of this
heat.
Today is the 5th. I'll take the 5th and I'll take a 5th!
Let's see, what are my favorites.... these three:
Sinfire Cinnamon flavored whiskey
Citrus vodka
and... José !
Yesterday I used the taco seasoned rice for my breakfast...
I heated it up with a tad of olive oil and added in a couple eggs...
OMGOOOOOD!!!
Noon yesterday when it was 99º. A little later the clouds were all gone,
movin' west.
This from Ed Chenal (LASD ret):
What a lazy day yesterday was. I did go through one of the boxes of old
Christmas ornaments that had been my sister Marion's. Her daughter-in-law
Melinda sent them to me. Some had been my Mother's ... at least they are very
familiar ... and VERY old!
OK, this came from Deewayne-Honee Pberger (LASD ret) and it's HILARIOUS!
I'm still laughing and I saw it yesterday!

dressing with half and balsamic mayo with the other half..
I recorded the Capitol 4th and Macy's 4th. I watched the last of the Tour
de France. I watched the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest from NY. YUCK!!!!
Gross. The guy who won hat 62 hot dogs and buns. The runner up ate 60! Made my
tummy upset just watching. Watched two Hallmark movies. One was A Very Merry Mix-up. It was fun! http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/a-very-merry-mix-up Watched the end of Macy's
4th. Sad, the camera angle for most of the fireworks was from way high and not
ground level. Mistake.
Dinner was snacks...
I had some snapea crisps, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, tomatoes, a
couple of the deviled eggs, gerkins I wrapped with a slice of Swiss cheese.....
and wine.
All I know. Happy Sunday. Nuff said. Ciao.
