Cookies !!



 the first 'baking' I have done for about 10 years.

an inexpensive ready mix, just add butter and water.. except I use milk instead of water. 

12 minutes in the oven and just crispy outside and soft in the middle. perfect. 

they are very sweet though, so not able to eat them all at once ... lol

Steve Noonan, the Nina Demos - Buy For Me the Rain

the simplest version of this I have heard. I love it. 

I was gifted a box of cd's to play in the car. one cd had this song as a live version. so on getting home did a youtube search and found the published hit version. as usual youtube will throw in extras which turned up this version.

Garden Cat


 Beans in todays garden, a wet windy day. She wasn't out for very long. 

I'm not as comfortable using the camera as I used to be, so easy just to snap away on your phone. This isn't quite in focus, using the display rather than the viewfinder, think I need to lean it on my head to get it steady... lol...  or is it the age of the camera not working quite properly. 

Age, another thing, mine... it hurts my eyes to use the viewfinder, giving me  a headache. I don't wear glasses for normal day to day things, but do for reading now.
