I arose, made a coffee, and upon looking at the blank slate of the day ahead with its endless myriad of possibilities, I went back to bed. Then the coffee kicked in.

Today's random selection from my archive of forgotten pictures is some moderately fancy fish, and a copse of trees adorning themselves in fall colours.

Beyond the water is a broad cluster of trees showing their early-fall colours.Herb-encrusted fish topped with micro-greens sitting atop roasted broccolini and a puck of rice.

As I was wandering through the dining room, I saw the cat up on the table with her nose buried in a bowl of salt water taffy. She was tossing the ones she didn't want onto the floor. Apparently, she didn't want any of them, but she was going to keep looking just in case.

I understand her concern, though. I was pretty sick last night, and when I woke up with no sense of taste or smell this morning, it triggered minor alarm bells. Fortunately, they both came back when I took some decongestants. And I'm feeling a bit better after my 90-minute catnap.

The theme of today's random selection is earth tones.
Rain splashing into a puddle.Sepia tone picture of a young - presumably human - male child holding  a mug of what appears to be root beer. He has a 70s vintage haircut. His expression is one of either delight, or discomfort. It's either a smile, or a grimace.

Is this child looking forward to drinking the root beer, or is he dreading it? Is he going to be drinking it with delight, or under duress? His dark eyes staring directly into the camera hint at the latter. Where was everybody when this poor child needed help?
