Our winter visitors are here already. It seems early and they are hungry. I saw them a few days ago searching the mowed grass but didn't register that it was a dark eyed Junco.
I worked outside and decided it was time to rescue these hardy geraniums. They are so healthy, having grown strong with our frequent rains this summer. I had bought these as a bargain as seed geraniums and I did get my money's worth from them. There are two other plants still out there but last nights hard freeze may have taken them. I didn't venture out into the gardens today as it was very cold and I found a project to work on inside.
I snapped a shot of the leaves of my William Baffin yesterday. A third of the bush appears to be dead but the rest seems to be still alive after it dropped most of its leaves. The color and pattern on the leaves seems different than usual but I am glad to see it.
I was cleaning out my truck a few days ago and look what I found. I used the truck to move so many things down from the old place to the new place and this was apparent stuck in among things. The boys were young and I don't remember the puzzle but I assume it has a matching piece to complete the game. 1977 was a long time ago and Sesame Street was my oldest son's most favorite entertainment.
My wife was beating chicken pieces to flatten them for their coating of parmesan cheese. I got the meat hammer from my mom's kitchen drawer when I closed down her house. It is old and very heavy. Iron would be probably its make up. It is so much better than the wooden ones that I have seen on the market. The parmesan chicken did taste great.
We are enjoying the flower garden that I brought inside. They seem to be doing well with the warmth of inside and the keep opening up for us to see.
It is Friday and thanks for stopping by today.
