This & That

 This area is all a buzz as there is a Limpkin in Wall Township which is the town right next to mine.

It made the local news last night, 

there were about 50 photographers out front of the man's home where it was...I was not one of them.

The news lets you in on the town, but not the address, of course, 

so it looks like I will not be getting a picture. It looks a bit like a turkey, brown, no color, 

but still it is an unusual sighting here as this bird is usually seen in parts south, Georgia and Florida.

I'm not sure how long it will hang around here, we have been having some very cold nights.

Out for a drive yesterday, I saw this cute display for Thanksgiving.

I have seen a few others, but have not stopped for a picture.

I got my nails done while we were out, I keep them very short and pink.

I started my September book club book.

I hope I can get through it, 408 pages and the print seems a little bit small to me.

I made some egg salad last evening, I have been dying for it.

Hard boiling eggs perfectly cooked is so easy...

start with your eggs in cold water, when the water comes to a boil, turn off the flame,

cover them, and wait exactly 10 minutes and they will look like this once you chop them.

I like it simple, mayo, just a small squirt of mustard, a little salt and a little onion powder and that's it.

Made and cut into little tea sandwiches, they needed something to fancy them up,

but it was just the hubs and I and we were too hungry to wait!

I took these two pictures on a recent walk around the reservoir, our sunsets have been so pretty.

My wildflower garden is still producing a lot of flowers, 

primarily marigolds and a few cosmos and zinnia here and there.
