FYI


Figured, as long as I'm being snarky, that it wouldn't hurt to put up a photo of the oak tree that was damaged (an understatement) in the fire a while back.
That tree is somewhere between 60 and 80 feet high and, up to the time the dweebs played Nero, it was beautifully full and green. Can't see it from this angle, but the whole northeastern side is totally bare.
I feel quite sorry for it. It looks so pitiful.
Hope it survives the winter...

Stop the Spying!

About Me

A hobby cook from the Midwest. Experiments, thoughts, new recipes, maybe even a photo or two... You noticed the pouting little girl with the words superimposed over her face? Growing up in the 60s and 70s the refrain of "there are starving children in [insert current poverty-stricken nation] that would love to have such... etc etc etc." I don't know that anyone actually believed all that but the image of a starving foreign child, holding out a bowl in hopes of being gifted with boiled tongue or green tomato pie, was pretty powerful. I do recall the kind of trouble kids would inevitably be in if they dared to say what most of us thought: "Well, then, send this stuff right on over to those poor, starving [insert country] kids." I don't usually post other people's photos, just my own. If you want to borrow or use one of my photos, I would appreciate your asking first. I usually don't mind but do hate having my work attributed to someone else. By the way, I found the photo of that pouting girl on the web with no attribution. If it's yours? We'll deal, ok? Thanks.
