Time to pesto up #gardening #pesto #homegrown 🌱 🌿

Try watching a Sonja Henie movie after she won Olympic figure skating gold. When the moment comes where there might be some heartfelt plea of a song, she busts out a big ol’ skating routine m.youtube.com/watch?v=BwT0...

Right. A 12 pound cat or a 35 pound dog are about my limit and even then they have to be willing

I gotta think that by now any developer of a mall or pedestrian shopping district knows to include someplace (not the arcade) for the dudes to hang out

He should prolly take off his glasses, though. They could cause some serious eye injury if the tires were to roll right over his face

Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy but isn’t a selfie, if you’d like.
A pair of wild turkeys runs to catch up to the rest of the flock. They are trudging up a rocky trail in a forest with a steep grass & tree covered slope on the right side of the shot

The northern California coast is mostly rocky eroding cliffs 25 - 30 meters high. There are many trails along the cliffs and people don’t always stay on the trails. There are whole helicopter teams, pilots and danglers, trained to pluck stranded adventurers off the cliffs

No. He was at Davis when it was still the farm campus for Cal. One of his professors was my O Chem professor when I was there.

When my dad was defending his chemistry dissertation in the late forties one professor asked something like “What happens when you mix a, b, and c at x temperature?” my dad diagrams all kind reactions and side reactions and reactions to all the action Professor says “Nope. It goes BOOM!”

And in case anyone missed it, this was SCIENCE in action; specifically, problem solving Scientists: “How do we get Trump off our ass?” FIFA: “Give him an award. Anything will do. Being related to his uncle? Should do it.Don’t forget to frame it”

Of course, we did have maps. But we did not have ALL the maps and sometimes we had none with us. It was the time when “Why won’t you ever stop and ask for directions?” entered the American male/female dynamic

This guy too. Over the course of half an hour it flew around my tomato patch and landed here and there, as if to say “yep. I just did a thorough survey and this heat wave is just what you need to ripen the last of ‘em”
A variegated meadowhawk dragon fly perches on a tomato leaf against a brilliant blue sky. The dragon fly’s abdomen has light blue spots along its grey-brown length.

Very interesting. An uncle of my ex (Cantonese) had that issue with his wife, whom he married in the US. Not sure if she spoke Taishanese specifically, but they ended up speaking English to each other rather than picking one of their non-shared Chinese languages.

Yes, we were like the ancient mariners; navigating by the stars and known land forms. Niche skills, such as diving the direction of the nearest gas station or pay phone, were invaluable

“I recall meeting Alan Alda at a cocktail party around that time. I believe we did discuss his MASH character ‘Hawkeye Pierce’. Could that be the source of your confusion?”

making cioppino does, indeed, require one to get one’s gameface on from a neighborhood free library #freelibrary #cooking #sonomacounty
Inside page of a cookbook by a nomadic California north coast author, titled ‘Gregorio’s Kitchen’. It is illustrated with a pre-Columbian-looking figure (Gregorio) taking on a giant crab and a bunch of smaller fish in the battle that is cioppino

It’s also the order in which they bloom. However, these narcissus, which I have clocked as late as January, are ready for show time now

And do not give them the keys to your current car for ‘evaluation’ until after you sign. This is a classic ploy so that you cannot just walk away
