Cherry Crisp

food

I made a Cherry Crisp pie today. Well I actually only made part of it from scratch.

Recipe

1 single-crust pie, put a can of cherry pie filling inside crust.

Ingredients for topping: 1/2 cup flour; 1/3 cup packed brown sugar; 1/3 cup rolled oats; 1 tsp of cinnamon, and 1/4 cup of butter, softened. Mix together and crumble on top of cherry filling.

Bake 35 minutes at 350 degrees until a bit bubbly. Let cool. Eat.

My slice didn’t come out perfect, but it did taste great.

Water, water everywhere

Car-E, cats, pets

Car-E likes to investigate everything, even the bottom of the water bowl.

He was sure there was something on the bottom of the bowl I just cleaned. Car-E kept searching until half the water was on the floor.

He then took time to lick the water off his feet, while Othello took a drink.

I never know what Car-E will be into next.

Mowing continues

Sunnybook Farm, work

A friend asked me to show another clip of mowing in a different section of the farmyard.

Here it is.

I turned another corner and now heading west around the shed.

The ferns along the shed are past their beautiful spring green. Fall is near at hand.

Our light-filled days are shortening fast.

Enjoy the nice days that are given to us.

Sunrise

Weather

For many weeks, I’ve been taking sunset photos from my front porch.

Here’s one from September 10th.

I’m sad when clouds take away this view. The last few evenings, I’ve missed out on sunset photos.

The best I could get was one on Sunday, September 13th.

While out with my dog Sunny this morning I noticed the sunrise.

I grabbed this shot when I walked back into the yard.

Both of the last photos were orange because of the smoke drifting all the way to Wisconsin from California.

The wildfires are horrendous out west. Pray for the people, the wildlife, and the western states.
