Absurd overnight temperature of 27.3 degrees Fahrenheit. Flannel sheets going back on the bed. Strip bed, bring to laundry room, into clothes washer and start cycling . . . except the rinse water was barely dribbling into the tub. Called the plumber. His receptionist (wife) said it sounded more...

Domino and Mr Poe catnapping this afternoon

Lions and tigers and bears, oh my, are not house pets. Alaskan sled dogs are not house pets. Shall we wonder, back in the long ago times, what people were saying about their neighbors bringing wild dogs into the house. And how about the Russian foxes that were relatively recently bred for...

Not sure whether this should be here in Air Frying or rather in What's for Dinner. Pays your penny and takes your choice. Let me say that I think they need a better owner's manual. Not all of us want an app. Some of us don't even turn our phones on. However I did persevere. And what we had was...

1) Went to PT. 2) Since I was nearby I went to Wal-Mart and Costco. 3) Looked at air fryer once it was unpacked. Reviewed user manual and BTW didn't gadgets used to come with a recipe booklet rather than a single recipe for buffalo chicken bites? 4) Decided the swordfish steak I bought at...

My 6 quart Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer arrived today! I can see it is going to be a leaning experience . . .

@Mia6 Here are two links about visits I made to the Millburn NJ fairy house trail a number of years ago: https://bellewood-gardens.com/2017/Fairy%20House%20Trail_2017-07.html and https://bellewood-gardens.com/2017/Autumn%20Visit%20to%20the%20Fairy%20House%20Trail_2017-10.html a link for a book...

Finished and uploaded my review for a magnificent book with fantastic pictures of found objects. Still, the Art of Noticing by Mary Jo Hoffman. She spent over a decade taking a picture every single day. Wonderful book. Next, to finish my review of Making Fairy Garden Accessories by Anna-Marie...

There are birds that will eat dead / dying rats that have been poisoned with harmful effect for the birds. Flacco in NYC for example. If you know anyone with rat terrier dogs or similar breed you might invite them in for a hunt. There's even groups doing this, again in NYC. Keep in mind that...

There was some unanticipated rain yesterday evening but it is sunny and clear this morning. Occasional handyman supposed to stop by later. We have four sets of double doors, two of which have storm doors. Want those down and put way in basement, and the four sets of screen doors brought up and...

Mixed a cart's worth of potting soil: sieved a 5 gallon sheet rock bucket of heavy wet soil shoveled out of ditch where it was impinging on culvert (occasional handyman did the shoveling a few days ago.) Small rocks were separated into a plastic pot, wet leaves and twigs (and earthworms) into a...

Not all pickles need to be bottled for long term storage. There are some - especially Japanese - quick pickles meant to be made and consumed the same day. Here's an easy one, with store bought vegetables Daikon and Carrot Pickle Adapted from “Into the Vietnamese Kitchen”...

How is an animal without hands supposed to bring food back to its young except in its stomach. Eagles do this. So do penguins. Wolves do it. Dogs do this. As it mentions in the bible, Proverbs 26:11-12, Like a dog that returns to its vomit, a fool does the same foolish things again and again.

Sending wings of prayer and all good wishes for Jack. And for you.
