Good 35º cloudy morning. A few sprinkles of rain late
yesterday and now there is a bit more of snow on my mountain.
Just read about a man held at gunpoint by police because a passerby saw him
putting kids into the trunk of his car.
He was driving a Tesla that looked like this one.
But......... he was released and not charged when the police discovered the
"trunk" has rear facing seats!
Ya just never know!

This is awesome.... a bull who had been chained up his whole
life is set free and what he does is such fun... I had happy tears!
Later for dinner I cooked some quinoa in the rice cooker along
with some garlic, butter, and mushrooms.
Then I heated some turkey meatballs and the other 3 of the Veggie cakes in
the microwave.
Put everything in the Crock Pot on warm. Topped it all with grated
cheese....
