Rotisserie Chicken… String Bean, Corn, Artichoke, Olive, Avocado Salad… Pita… Honeydew Melon

 Resurgence supper tonite… Live from NYC… 

Stunning day… mid 70’s… crisp clear skies… perfect day to be outdoors… enjoying the warmth of sunshine… squirrels 🐿 still absent… acorns almost ripe…  waiting for the beginning of the winter hoard…  leaving acorn caps scattered across the deck… shells shards emptied of their innards… 


Each year grackles (mid size black bird with fluorescent wings) congregate in our trees by the thousands… eating acorns to fuel their flight south for the winter… first time seeing it reminded me of the Alfred Hitchcock movie… The Birds…  hearing hundreds of them land on the roof… in the trees… on the lawn… eating acorns… chattering… fuel for their flight… staying less than an hour… the flock then rising into the sky… flying off for the winter…  a few more weeks and the birds will arrive…


Breakfast out on the deck… iced coffee🧋peach 🍑 & buttered roll… the hubs hot java ☕️ with cottage cheese and a banana 🍌 Mr Sam relaxing on the warmed boards… sunshine beaming across the deck offsetting the chill breeze… 


A few chores await…  hubs cleaning the grill and fire pit 🔥 logs 🪵 to split… for yours truly… appointments 📅 to set…  letters to write ✍️ errands to run… the day flies by… chatting with Mom…  enjoying her bridge games 🃏 once again… her desperately needed haircut 💇‍♀️ scheduled for this week…  a check up with the cardiologist 🩺👨🏻‍⚕️


Supper tonite… cooks night off… rotisserie chicken 🍗 from the market… tender and juicy… string bean, artichoke, tomato, corn & avocado salad…. Toasted pita… the last of the Chardonnay… dessert… honeydew melon 🍈 


Covid has stolen over 675,000 souls from America…  some folks finding recovery extremely difficult… symptoms including overwhelming fatigue… heart damage…  lung damage… nerve damage…  headaches and blood disorders…  please… make that appointment and #GetYourJabOn  avoid the challenges of lingering illness… mask up… limit interactions… gallop through the market and wash those germy hands 💕😷

How was your day?   What’s on your plate?   Thoughts?
