Dairy Daze...and Now Beyond

The weather has been winterish here this past week, Ellen has been home from school and there have been many, many things to do.  But without further excuses or ado: 949 puffed chickadee on the bird feeder 948 milk on my Honey Bunches of Oats 947 the perspicacity of a titmouse 946 the haunting cry of a gull 945 the swell and crash of ocean waves 944 daffodils in spring 943 the family I was blessed with, growing up 942 the clank and spin of the windmill 941 a printer with a scanner 940 the awkward grace of a giraffe 939 God's sense of humor when He created the giraffe

I was going to do this daily, make it more fun, post pics and tell stories and whatnot.  But it's proving more difficult than I'd thought.  I will try to do better, but I'd also like to get this done and not be listing these for the next year.  Ha!  Here's a few more.  There's a bit of food favs in this particular list.  It must be because I am trying to limit my calories and want some more! (Edited to add picture of Ellen reading...that's better!) 979 a nice, ripe Bosc pear 978 gnarled oak against a bright blue sky 977 the glow of a sycamore on a dim winter day 976 cat purring in my lap 975 dew on roses 974 popcorn with orange juice 973 fresh pineapple 972 sliced bread 971 my bread machine 970 homemade sour dough bread 969 butter melting on toast 968 the feel of rich black dirt 967 the homey clucking of contented chickens 966 chickens scratching 965 chickens fluffing in a dust bath 964 honey bees buzzing in a clover patch
