I’m a little late posting this morning because Don suddenly decided to cook a big breakfast – an omelet and pancakes. (He cooked the same breakfast yesterday.) Tomorrow, I insist on going back to my normal oatmeal. I love pancakes but I always feel drowsy after consuming them.
He also make a sugar-free apple pie yesterday. I know you’ve asked for the recipe, but he has yet to give it to me. I’ll keep reminding him.
We woke up to snow this morning and I was shocked. Much of it had melted over the past week. At first, I was disappointed, but I soon realized it was a lovely snowfall, gentle and beautiful. And only about an inch fell, so it’s no big deal. We saw a cardinal and several little birds flying around, as well as a squirrel.
While I was sitting in my chair, I heard – loud and clear – the call of a Carolina Wren. Sure enough, he/she was on the porch railing, singing away. Eventually, he flew up to the upper part of the porch where we had to close off the niche openings several years ago. He poked at one of the boards, as if he was looking for a place for a nest. I was telling him to look at the trailer that was used by the wrens last year! See above photo.
Hearing that call made me very happy.
I just tried to upload a little video of his voice, but I couldn’t do it. I’m not sure why…
We have to run to the store this morning – just a quick stop – and then we’ll be doing our respective ‘things’ the rest of the day.
Time to play with my dolls, I think.
Stay safe.
Happy Sunday.
