Extravagent place, Westy,
Truly extravagent.
(The trail next to the stream must be somewhat tricky!)
Good morning, Gran,
You have too much fun.
LOL...I do have fun Doggie, but sometimes there's work to do too. I'm just doing Al's windows updates now. I hate doing those. I never know what ones to choose.
Right now I have to make a grocery list for the Baked Haddock supper tonight. ;) We need some dessert again too, but what to make? Apple pie goes good with Haddock. ;)
I could make some good shark traps down there.
Since I already had Vcatch, BitDefender, and Norton Personal Firewall installed, Avast scanned the machine and found zero baddies here.
This sucker is a veritable fortress...I hope.
Thanks again for the Avast information.
I selected the AutoUpDate feature and just let the machine have itself updated whenever Mr.Gates thinks it needs it.
YMMV
LOL..I do too, but Al doesn't deal with that stuff well so he just shuts it down when they come up. I have to go back and get it all later. ;)
He could probably build me a puter, but he knows nothing about the everyday affairs of one. IE and google...that's about it, lol.
Anyway, he'd much rather be outside. He just bought himself and new John Deere. Our son getting a house helped him decide. This one won't have a snow-blower and have a wider path..;)
Oops, that reminds me.. I have to go and install his new virus-scan too.
In your country, they should bloom are year, in or out.
Al's so lucky to have a Gourmet cook like you to cater to his every wish.
Baked Haddock and Apple Pie or even Apple Cobbler with whipped cream, sounds like a right nice supper.
(We've been whipping our own whipped cream lately, I bought a few pounds of Oregon blueberries frozen, right from the grower, and we just thaw them a little and top them with the Cream, and it's become our standard favorite treat.)
I love Apple anything, lol.
Just finished a Blueberry pie this last weekend. We can get the frozen wild Maine Blueberries around here now. They are so much better than the cultivated ones. Smaller, but much more tasty.
Next time you bake fish, try it with crushed Ritz crackers soaked with a stick of melted butter and lemon juice. Enough to cover the top of the fish. If you don't already, that is.. ;) Yummmm...
To obtain sharks' fin, sharks are hauled on deck and their fins are hacked off. The body, often still alive - is tossed back into the sea like rubbish to conserve space in the fish hold for more valuable fish such as tuna and swordfish. What sounds like the end of another harvest for the fishermen is the start of a slow and excruciatingly painful death for the shark as it sinks to the bottom of the ocean. Barely alive, it will now bleed to death slowly or drown because it cannot breathe, as water no longer flows through its mouth and over the gills. To add a final insult to this magnificent predator, little fishes and critters would peck and nip on its open wounds, as it lies helplessly awaiting its death.
The weather has been so weird here, don't dare go out much...Did take Red up to the Bean about a week ago..Got back before the rains started again...We even had a tornado up North a bit..Tore a few things up....Today looks like another weird one...Think I'll hunker down...
.....Westy.....
Just damn. What horrible information about the sharks. That's awful.
Rainy day viewing!:)

It should explain why they come after us......
Sure is Hazy there!
I'm going to try and remember that one. Ritz/butter/lemon around the fish and bake.
I sometimes bake the trout I catch in the mountains around here. We were teaching the Boy Scouts to bake their fish a few years back, in tinfoil in the campfire. Grayling actually, a few years back someone transplanted a bunch from Alaska into one of the deeper lakes. Man was that good. We caught dozens of them.
