Good 25º every is frozen morning!
Yesterday the gloom disappeared about 10am and there was sun on and off as the clouds passed through..
My mountain got all the snow! Thank goodness none on the ground here!
On the mountains in the back of the house the snow looked lower...
And the turkeys were out and about...
Then Cody from All Natural Pest (1-877-662-8449 or check their website www.nobuggy.com ) came by to check the bait traps.
The bait they use is safe, so if a coyote or my dog or any animal eats the dying or dead ground squirrel or rat etc that has eaten the bait, they won't die from it.
Cody is like all the other employees of All Natural that I have met, super nice and friendly! We had a fun chat!
Boy was I good yesterday. I decided to clean out a cupboard in the kitchen. It was filled with cake mix boxes, Jell-o pudding, Jell-o, frosting mix, and graham cracker pie crusts! Everything had a use by date from 2009 to 2013!!! Into the trash they went. It hurt to throw all that stuff away, but I just don't make those things anymore. ☹ Too bad none of it would be good to toss for the birds!

The cheese curds are cheesy inside and crunchy outside. Can be deep fried or cooked in the oven. I used my Power Air Fryer (http://powerairfryer.com/), drizzled them with a little olive oil, cooked at 400º for 8 minutes. Really good!!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Tuesday. Ciao.
