Still trying to attract crows to our yard... no luck so far... but we did have one in the tree next door and one walking on our front lawn a day or so ago. I put out some apple trimmings and some peanuts to see if they might notice. Not sure if they did. Have continued to put these out the last few days. Sometimes it looks like something ate them, but haven't seen any activity. They say crows are smart, so if I continue to do this, maybe they'll notice?? Anyway, that's the plan.
My oldest granddaughter's Bernese Mountain Dog is growing up. He no longer looks like a cute fat puppy but a taller thinner lanky pup. He's lost a lot of his baby fur... but still adorable.
As you can see, I don't have a lot to talk about this morning. I'm getting ready to make oven fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and peas (or spinach souffle?) for dinner this evening. I made Chicken Tetrazzini earlier this week and froze some to take to my friend's house later (along with some stuffed peppers DH made). She's had some serious problems this past year and has trouble getting around and cooking.
And just a FYI for any of you out there Gluten Free... I found some really good frozen baked products. They're made by Cappello's and are delicious. They make Brown Butter Sugar Cookies, Chocolate Chip Cookies, and great Biscuits!
They come frozen and have to cook 15-20 minutes, but are so-oo good! (not cheap though... a bag cost about $8)

Happy Sunday to you. Don't we all want/need the peace in your final photo. Your would be President (again) scares me. I do hope he isn't returned.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that a great picture, EC? So peaceful.
DeleteYes to the peaceful photo! I'm thinking of what to cook for Sunday dinner right about now!
ReplyDeleteOK, Barbara, what did you decide?
DeleteYour granddaughter's dog is absolutely beautiful and your dinner sounds super delicious! I haven't seen a crow in a long, long time. I haven't seen any in Chicago in years since the West Nile Disease, I think.
ReplyDeleteKay, there are crows all around here... but I think they avoid our house due to the feral cats... and I do have some mobiles hanging from the trees. They may not like those. But I'm still going to try to see if I can attract some to the front.
DeleteI was discussing the cost of a new car battery with a daughter over the weekend, and she said "Nothing is cheap any more. Not one thing!"
ReplyDeleteThis is true... and I've found that I may still buy the product (may even be smaller and cost more than it used to) but I don't buy it AS OFTEN. Then there are some things that I simply say to myself, that I don't like it THAT MUCH... and don't buy it at all.
DeleteIt's hard not to think about change when I end up spending so much at the grocery store. But he isn't going to make it better. I hope Kamala and Tim are our next president and veep.
ReplyDeleteDJan, I don't know where we're headed... I can only hope it's for the best... and IMO, that's got to be Kamala.
DeleteThat pup is adorable! He's growing up quickly.
ReplyDeleteFrom this Canadian, I'm hoping for Harris/Walz will be in charge after the election. The other option is down right frightening, as he's already suggested he'll be firing, jailing, or deporting those who don't support his platform.
It is all down right frightening, Mae... but I have high hopes that it will turn out alright.
DeleteI'm from Ohio where we are cancelling college classes and evacuating elementary schools due to threats originating with lies. I am rambling, too - and I sure hope we can shut both of them down. I am embarrassed that his vp choice is from Ohio and doing this to his own constituents. I know a lot of people were going to have meals to support the Haitian restaurants in the area this weekend. But when the proud boys showed up in military uniform and handed out KKK flyers, most people cancelled that plan.
ReplyDeleteMEANWHILE - your meals sound delicious!!!
I don't know what to say... it's all so unbelievable.
DeleteMy wife has celiac disease and must eat gluten free. I'm going to try this brand. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great brand... and they have a pizza made with almond flour too (haven't tried it, but I've seen it in the grocery).
Deletei keep wondering why you are trying to attract crows to the yard, maybe i missed it!! those cookies sound like a good find...i need that peace too!!
ReplyDeleteOh, Debbie, I love critters... we feed the feral cats, as well as the possums, raccoons, squirrels, box turtles, etc. And I've always been fascinated with crows. They are smart and funny, etc. I see them around the neighborhood, but never in our yard. Don't want a murder of crows (think that's what you call a lot)... but a few would be nice.
