Thoughts from Crow Cottage (My Main Blog.)
crowbelle's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Winter Garden The Garden in Winter Testing One, Two, Three... I'm testing this URL to see if my picture of our Garden In Winter will appear here. I have had many troubles with using URL's from Webshots before, so this is really a test. A past winter at Crow Cottage - rear garden area They feel safe in there, too - away from the kitty-cats who prowl the neighborhood looking for a tender morsel - or from the fox who has been frequenting our back garden of late. We haven't actually spied Mr. Fox, but our neighbor has seen him rummaging around looking for tasty treats where he can find them... Then, of course, there are the ever-present skunks and raccoons who pop in from time to time at Crow Cottage, just to mix things up a bit, and to let us know that we are NOT the King and Queen of this hill... that we reside here alongside of all the other creatures, great and small, that God has put here. We respect them and, for the most part, they respect us...so we cohabitate quite nicely - we were "skunked" on two occasions, and that was not one of our more pleasant memories - the late (great) Muffin CollieFlower (tri-color collie) got sprayed right in the face and she was none too happy either! So, that's it from here for today. I've just done my shopping for a nice dinner I'm going to cook for us for SuperBowl Sunday... it's from my new cookbook, Lydia Cooks Italian-American, and it's shrimp in a chunky marinara sauce over pasta - I got the jumbo shrimp today at the market and I got a nice big loaf of Italian olive oil and garlic bread baked fresh today... should be a good day tomorrow... GO NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS! Cheers ~ 1:01 pm - 31 January 2004 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
