he was definitely and interesting man. I love his architecture! Click on the
word "Taliesin" and read the fascinating story of that home.... his second wife

Taliesin West. I would love to go there and see it. Some day. Scottsdale is a

Dude and I took a "run" to the road to take the trash for
pickup tomorrow. We went when it was still cool...... 70º.
Dinner again was with my Air Fryer.
I took an Omaha Steaks Chicken in Pastry and coated it with
olive oil. Cooked it at 350º for about 10 minutes, then added in some mushrooms
tossed with olive oil and garlic salt and three veggie cakes, also drizzled with
olive oil and cooked for another 7 minutes.
SUPER good, easy, cleanup a breeze (everything in the
dishwasher!)
Chair and wine. Watched some of the Olympics, the news, and a Blue Bloods.
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Monday. Ciao.
