NO THIS ISN'T 'LITTLE RED' IT'S 'CHIPPY' THE CHIPMUNK |
Nice waking up to sunny skies and cooler temperatures. Because of humidity Kelly had to fire up the A/C unit for a few days late last week. I'm hoping this cooler air will hang around for awhile. Pheebs and I did make it out for a bit this morning.

MAITLAND RIVER FLOWING TOWARDS LAKE HURON |
So here's my latest bird feeder woes. Crows are devouring our birdseed as fast as I put it out there and I see no defence against the them. They just fly in any time they want and in about 6.7 seconds they have gorged everything in site and are gone again. And they come in pairs bringing a Buddy with them sometimes.

IT'S QUITE A CAST OF CHARACTERS WE GET ON OUR BIRD FEEDER |
I have things outside that I could be doing and the Jeep is in dire need of a good clean-up but my energy levels seem to be out of energy again. Maybe I need a new battery or something. I'll have a look on E-Bay.

KELLY SENT THIS PHOTO TODAY FROM SPENCERPORT NY AND IT LOOKS LIKE MY MOJAVE BREEZER HAT HAS MADE IT UNSCATHED THROUGH HER MOTHER'S DISHWASHER AGAIN |
My furry little four legged shadow follows me everywhere and as I type this tonight my little shadow is lying right beside my computer chair. She sure is missing Mom.

PHEEBS ON A RAINY MONDAY AND BELOW A FLYING BUMBLE BEE ON A SUNNY TUESDAY |
Pheebs and I are eating quite well here. I have lots of peanut butter stocked up as well creamed honey. New box of cereal and lots of veggies for my main morning shake and smaller shake after supper sometimes. My after supper shake consists of half a banana, half an apple, cinnamon, vanilla flavored whey powder, a dash of orange juice, and a couple dopples of coconut yogurt. Add a splash of skim milk to that, toss it into the blender, hit the switch, and
'Wala'. Nirvana:)) For supper tonight (Okay this afternoon) I took some time and rustled me up a mighty fine turkey supper with all the fixins. Mashed potatoes, dressing, and corn. It was even complete with an apple cranberry dessert. Luckily I had a lot of apples and corn on hand.

YES INDEED I SURE ENJOY COOKING WITH OUR MICROWAVE |

ME AND MY PEANUT BUTTER AND HONEY SUPPLY ARE NEVER TOO FAR APART |

BUMBLE BEE IN OUR RHODODENDRUN TODAY |
In Monday's post I had the word prostate spelled wrong when I stuck and extra r in it. I have since made the correction. Thanks to Rose way down there in that State of Texas place for pointing that out to me in an email:))
GROANER'S CORNER:(( Ben went on safari with his wife and mother-in-law. One evening, while still deep in the jungle, the Mrs. awoke to find her mother gone. Rushing to her husband, she insisted on them both trying to find her mother. Ben picked up his rifle, took a swig of whiskey, and started to look for her. In a clearing not far from the camp, they came upon a chilling sight: the mother-in-law was backed up against a thick, impenetrable bush, and a large male lion stood facing her. The wife said, "What are we going to do?" "Nothing," said Ben, "The lion got himself into this mess, let him get himself out of it."

A schoolteacher's son brought his report card home. The father said, "Let's see what you have accomplished..."He opens the report and to his dismay sees all bad grades. "What do you have to say about this Johnny?""Well dad, at least you know I'm not cheating!"

You do look well stocked up!
ReplyDeleteLOL, thanks Al you are doing pretty good whipping up those meals. They are actually quite good I used to eat them years ago and enjoyed them. perfect for a one person meal. Glad you have lotsa peanut butter and honey they are major staples as well. I know you will to go hungry while Kelly is gone. Keep on enjoying these sunny days while they are here and not too hot for you.
ReplyDeleteThose crows should not be allowed to enter the battle!! Interesting that the hat cleans up so well in a dishwasher, but it looks great. Love the bee pics.
ReplyDeleteNow that's quite a stock pile of PB! I'm impressed. Pheebs can get a little nip too...
ReplyDeleteSome good tips here to help foil the "bully" birds.

You two are in my prayers daily, Al. Drop me a line if you ever have a question on prostate-related stuff.
ReplyDeleteI do not eat peanuts or peanut butter but I do love almond butter. Almonds are tree nuts and peanuts are legumes that grow under ground. I used to raise peanuts but after seeing the mold that grows on them, I stopped growing them and now eat only tree nuts.
ReplyDelete[From Craig] Your "Wala" should be spelled "Voila". I know you're in Ontario and French is mostly spoken in Quebec. But in the interest of understanding in communication, I would hope you could correct this mistake in future posts.
ReplyDeleteYou need to try a frozen Banquet Mega Cowboy Chicken and Homestyle Mashed Potatoes...You can oven cook it or microwave it..It's all dark meat though. Deeee licious!
