Update about blog

The joy of waking to this view each morning is just so wonderful. Even if the camera sees all the distortions from the window screen, I easily ignore them. Many of these green trees stand near or by the Animas River which flows through the town.

A (healthy) light lunch

Greek yogurt (unsweetened whole milk) and huge walnuts...and a gifted nectarine. I was in heaven.
Thanks Tina, for checking to see that I didn't like peaches. I'm sorry I have my strange tastes. I like opening the refrigerator and putting together a meal. I prefer minimal cooking. And I honestly hate to clean up the kitchen. I tend to leave the dishes till I run out of something, like spoons or forks. They are necessary for eating the next meal usually. So that's the driving force of my kitchen.

Today's quote:
Tuesday was the birthday of musician, Cole Porter, born in Peru, Indiana, in 1891. He went to Yale University, where he got horrible grades but wrote and performed more than 300 songs for school shows. He went off to Europe and eventually settled in Paris, where he lived for most of the 1920s. In 1928, he wrote his first big hit, "Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love," which begins, "Birds do it. Bees do it. Even educated fleas do it." After that his career took off, and he ended up writing hundreds of songs for movies, television, and Broadway shows.
