Dullsville anesthetic.

I haven't been interested in posting on the blog lately. Not much going on that I feel would be interesting for you guys to read. I'm not cooking much, I'm not taking many pictures lately, and I haven't gone anywhere. Bye for now. I'll be waking up soon.


Peonies

I'd like to have these planted in my yard. This group of five cut flowers is still looking nice after 5 days.

"Okay.. quiet please"...

I went out for a walk today and came across this. I didn't have the good camera with me so I used the cell phone to capture the dozens of people standing around behind the scenes of this shoot. I want a job standing around behind the scenes of a t.v. shoot! Actually, no I don't. I'd be bored out of my mind. I would need to keep busy by checking for continuity of the shot or something.

In this first picture the action is taking place across the street near the brick archway.
Watching the taping at one of the monitors.
The chairs have Roomates written on them. I just looked it up and Wicki says it has been canceled?
In this picture the action is to the right of the lighting set up. When we left they were doing a 4th take on the same scene.. I think it was probably more like take 15 or higher.

Flatland has its own cute overload

What more can I say?

Gotta clean that sh*t up

I wonder if my neighborhood will allow me to have a burn pile in the back yard??

Silliness

Field Runner on the iTouch. I played this the other night, it's a crazy way to spend some time. I detached from electronics yesterday and most of today.. I'm going outside!!!!


Now shipping..


Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.
A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sure
it was in the best possible condition before mailing.

Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over
the crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that money
can buy.

We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party
marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of
Portland waved "Bon Voyage!" to your package, on its way to you, in
our private CD Baby jet on this day, Thursday, April 2nd.

I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did. Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year." We're all
exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Sigh...

Edamame.. you'll laugh till you cry

UPS visited the house while I was away. I love brown.. too bad he doesn't just show up on a whim though.. you always have to buy something first. Eh, details, details.
Here is my totally goofy key chain I got from ThinkGeek.com
3 Beans in a pod. Each one is retained by a thick elastic band, pops out of the shell and gets pulled back in when you release. Only the middle bean has a face. Mine seems to have tears streaming from its face... tears of happiness. It seems to be a theme of the packaging too.

Kind of like playing the lottery.. you never know what face you will get when you order the oh so fun to squeeze edamame key chain.
Totally unrelated is my new DVD from Jerry "Motorman" Palladino.
Never fear dropping your motorcycle or making that tight u-turn ever again!
These guys make the huge Electra Glide motorcycles look like nimble little fish slithering through a course of cones. Visit his website and see the tip of the week, and watch how they handle those large scoots.

Hello Sunshine

I'm still in California & still being well fed
Maybe there will be one more of these in my near future...

The recipe for this is easy. Toast a frozen waffle, spread on a generous dollop of low/or non fat cottage cheese, cover the cottage cheese with fresh or thawed berries.. presto! Sometimes we sprinkle some cinnamon sugar on the berries, but often they are sweet enough. This makes a great breakfast, or dessert. We often make this for dessert if we've had a light dinner.


My mom has a green thumb.


After I took this picture I realized that these flowers are the manifestations of my mom's personality: sunny, colorful, and cheerful. Thanks for everything, mom! ♥

California blogging

Went to lunch with mom then over to the Dogwood Market



This is part of the wild flock of parrots that lives in mom's neighborhood. They come here to bathe in the water on the roof of our building. I think this group is mainly Conures.
Cooking Mama doing her thing..
"Cracker," I took this picture for you.

Sooo disappointing isn't it?

Here you are coming back day after day hoping to read some witty blurb I've fabricated and I have the same ol' motorcycle photographs and nothing else.

I swiped this picture just for you since you deserve to look at something other than motorcycles for days on end. Thank you lol cats for the picture.



Next week: motorcycles
