Good 30º snowing morning.
I had to go out and brush off the satellite dish so the TV would
work...
Here is the video I took of the snowfall before 10am
yesterday:
About 11am it started raining and the snow was melting off...
it was 38º by then. By 12:45 the snow started down again, and of course I had
to take the trash to the road. I got snowed on!!! LOL.
For breakfast I put the rest of the scalloped potatoes left
from dinner in a bowl, some olive oil, added two eggs, pricked the yolks with a
sharp knife, topped with garlic salt... cooked in the microwave with the saucer
on top on high for 2 minutes.
Perfect~
Birds were out around the feeders yesterday..
Turkeys looking for eats too...
The NFL scores from yesterday's games:
A great day for some of us... a sad day for others! Thank goodness the 9ers
lost!!!! Can you believe it that the 49ers are going to give Kapperass a
"prestigious award for inspirational courage" ?????? WHAAAAA???? The whole team
voted. What a bunch of total jerks!!!!
This was an interesting article I found about the Rose Parade
and LASD's participation and Sherman Blocks response...
Most of the time when I worked the Rose Parade it was at the corner of
Orange Grove and Colorado. One year I escorted our Sheriff Block to his seat in
the grandstand.
Another year a bunch of protesters sat down on Colorado in front of the
Queen's Float. We had to "escort" them off the parade route, take names, etc.
That intersection is where the cameras are and it was on TV. My nephew called my
sister screaming, "I just saw Aunt Sue on the TV!" LOL.
Since some of the floats were put together in Irwindale, they had to be
escorted back to the float builders building after the viewing was over. So, a
couple of times I worked with Temple deputies to bring the floats back in the
middle of the night. Normally a float goes about 5mph in the parade and also
when going to Pasadena, but on the way back they hit 30-40mph and you should
have seen the flowers come blowing off!!! It was funny!
AND
a special birthday .... my friend Ann Ramirez (LASD ret wife of Gabe LASD ret)
down in California. Happy Birthday Ann!!!!!

Basically you boil water and add the soup mix and simmer. I went a step
farther..
I cut up some broccoli and added it in and then let it simmer... Then
added in 1/2 cup sour cream, 1 cup grated cheddar/jack cheese, and 2 cut up
