Good 60º cloudy darn rooster crowing morning.
Dude was watching me take a picture of my
mountain...
If one rooster at the neighbors wasn't irritating
enough, now he's got two of those freeking things!
Good thing this wasn't the cloud formation this
morning, or I would have gone back to bed!!!
Yesterday: 9am 63º, 11am 78º, 12:30 84º and
smokey!, 2:30 87º. Was going to mow, but didn't want to be out in that ick
smokey air.
Last night was a Perseid meteor shower, but
because of the cloud cover here it was not available to see... Did anyone see it?
Here is something interesting.. a fruit that
helps you lose weight, from Dr. Axe:
My friend Ike sent this. Good one
Ike!

1934 – The first
civilian prisoners arrive at the Federal prison on Alcatraz Island.

.... Living in Paramount at the time, right across the LA
River/Long Beach Fwy and about 2 miles from the center of the riots... it was
scary!!! We had a second story apartment and could see the fires from our
balcony. The poleece were stationed at the freeway over crossings to keep the
rioters from coming into Paramount. Thank God!

Picture of the day.... she ran out of
toner!
Made birthday cards yesterday. Then one is coming
up fast so Dude and I took a quick ride into town to mail the card so "Pat" gets
it on time!
Cleaned out the cupboards, er, rearranged them!
Concocted a bunch of stuff for a salad for dinner.... Rehydrated carrots, peas,
mushrooms, bell peppers. Slightly cooked some broccoli and cauliflower and
carrots that were in the fridge. On hand, clams, artichoke hearts,
olives, garlic, tomatoes, a cucumber, and some Anellini pasta .
In the bowl went the clams, artichoke hearts,
olives, and tomatoes.
Next the cucumbers, re-hydrated veggies, and
cooked broc/cauli/carrots ...
Cooked the Anellini pasta and drained, cooled,
and added that. When I cook pasta I always add some olive oil to the water and a
good amount of Lawry's Garlic Salt.
Mixed it all up. Not enough clams, so added
another can. The put in covered bowl in refrigerator til I was ready to make
dressing...
Looked out the kitchen window and the doe from
yesterday was back and munching grass. Sorry, porch rail in way....
The dressing for the salad:
Super yummy and crunch and tasty! I have to say those Harmony House Dehydrated Veggies are awesomely good! Really flavorful.
Later watched a Hallmark Movie, When Sparks
Fly...
Cute movie!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Tuesday.
Ciao.
