Fog-Ice-Clouds-Sun ~ Pasta on Vegetables ~ Gross Chef ~ Late Night Show Hosts - Banana Bread Recipes

Good 29º icy foggy morning. Whoop......

PICTURE of the day........... Awwwww.....sweet doggie!

Yesterday it went from this at 11am  .....

to this at 4pm....

Earlier I ran 5 miles. (LOL, did you read yesterday's blog?) Golf cart for me, run for Dude... took trash to can near road and then fixed PJ's answer machine and fed their fish.

Dinner was chicken pasta parmesan (with white meat chicken, spiral noodles, peppers, and tomatoes, in a cheesy sauce) on top of steamed broccoli/pea pods/carrots/mushrooms/kale .....GOOD! Very filling!!!  

So, after dinner I was watching Entertainment Tonight... they had Wolfgang Puck on, who makes all the food for the Governor's Ball after the Oscars.

He was putting together some salmon and caviar... spooning the caviar on the salmon and pushing it off with his finger. Then he LICKED HIS FINGER! OMG. How gross. 

On top of that... he's been in the US for how many years and still can't pronounce 'vegetables' ... he says "ved-jaaa-taaa-bulls". Come on.

Such a turn off. Nobody can replace Johnny Carson!  

I miss Jay Leno.

5 Miles ~ Binding Recipes ~ Cyndi and Joan & Teresa and Annette ~ Crazy Bruiser

Good 35º cloudy morning. Low clouds, hanging on the tops of the trees. Looks like the weekend will be good....

Today is the 22nd .... George Washington's birthday. This is the day Brian was "due". We had a big earthquake in So. Cal in 1971 on February 9th, called the Sylmar Earthquake. That prompted Brian to show up early... on the 14th and not wait for the 22nd!

OMG, feels so good to be back on Hal, my big computer. Even picked up a new keyboard and mouse.... Ahhhh....Comfortable keyboard with padding. Like it. It has little thingys on the bottom that prop up the top end.

While Hal was in the "shop" with Turk, I did a few other projects... one was to take bunches of recipes I have copied off the internet and taken out of magazines and bind them...

The weather has been ok, gloomy, but ok. Got to 61º yesterday with the sun peeking in and out from the clouds.

Since the computer was down I missed out on wishing Cyndi Moreno (wife of the infamous Pete...LASD ret) Happy Birthday on the 20th. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY CYNDI!!!

This picture taken on a cruise to Vancouver from SF ... Cyndi was saying "Don't take my picture" ! HA~! Like that ever stopped me..... 

Today is my friend Joan Knoeppel's birthday. I got to know Joan at my vet's office. She's one of those neat people who loves your pet as much (well, close) as you do. She has a twin sister, Teresa, and together they are celebrating this infamous day. HAPPY BIRTHDAY LADIES!!!

 (Joan on left, Teresa on right)

 This is how I know Joan, by her smile!

It was great to see you Wednesday at Brian's office. Enjoy your birthday with Teresa!!!!

Today is also the birthday of my friend 'Rico Suave' Escalante's bride, Annette. Happy Birthday Annette! Rico works at the LASD BC Pistol Range in ELA.

Yesterday I looked out and there was Bruiser wayyyyyy up in the pasture... on a hunt. I waved to him and he immediately 10-22'd the "hunt" and ran back to me~! What a guy!!!

He climbed through the fence in the 'soon to be renovated garden' and ran up on the porch and rubbed on my legs!

All I know. Happy Saturday. Nuff said. Ciao.
