DOGS:

We should start off with dogs , right? Allow us to simply ease into this entry. No Pressure , Just Try 

Scored with this job during Turkey Week. All paws up throughout this adventure of needs , wants , and feed me now demands. But I Dig It 




Doggie time is what you read about in romance novels.  They love me unconditionally and that is my peace. I truly love those special quick eye contact moments during meals or while a backyard whiz sessions is in progress. Animals Rule 

THANKSGIVING:

I went ahead a set some solid boundaries as my way of avoiding amateur status. Basically , gave the old oats , wheat , and barley a back shelf for the evening as my way of watching my P's & Q's. Boy , Did That Ever Pay Dividends  


Even if I elaborated , in the back of your mind you just might call BullSh*t. Wouldn't blame you but it is all true. 


Now I am still rocking the VEGAN gig but I really haven't shared it with anyone. Its not like anyone will ever ask in this newest Me Me I world. So the dessert that I prepared was this extremely simple Tofu silk carob pie. You wanna talk about mouth watering !! Simply set up a water bath for melting down the carob chips and then hit these two ingredients into a food processor with a lifting hint of vanilla extract. Easy Peasy 


My main offering was discovered in the YouTube world. I followed this recipe and what a treat. Roasted Brussel Sprouts with a light soy sauce, powered garlic , and powdered onions to compliment the roasted Tofu in Corn Flake Cereal for breading , the most whipping spicy sweet and sour sauce drizzled over the top , and garnished the plate with fresh pomegranate seeds , fresh cut rosemary , and diced green onions for extra color. 


With a wink towards the adults , shared with the kids that I was only thinking of them when I baked off these delicious Chicken Tenders. Classic 


I hosted a crafts night a few days prior to Turkey Day and forced everyone to create their own Pinecone Turkey for the table setting. Once the glue gun rolled out , all was in favor. You know , throw your bobber out there and start reeling them in. SH*t Fire 

DISC:

While Mother Earth is cooking our precious spinning ball , opportunities for throwing some plastic is acceptable behavior under these November conditions. Today , December 7th , we are approaching 55 F / 12 C for our high. Sunbathing Weather I Tell Ya 


Let's face it , throwing some plastic is all about walking with Loki and The Dude. It is all about being outside for some fresh O2. It's really all about hearing , sharing , and exploring ideas. It's refreshing and rather needed really. Attitude Adjuster 

My throws aren't improving what so ever because we simply never practice enough. We might have played a whole 3 times during the summer months and about the same in the spring. This October/November were banner months as we played probably 3 times EACH month. And yes , only keeping track of the birdies. The non mulligan birdies anyway. 

But throwing some plastic is time well spent. Noticing the Colorado River levels , that choice moment when a Bald Eagle quickly soars on by , and/or gaging the windy conditions that's rises eyebrows but just the same regardless. Outdoors Baby 

However , when a disc releases from your grip , you just know. When your drive off the concrete T-Pad follows your intended flight path , that sensation is pretty damn exciting I tell ya. When you watch your approach shot nearly dropping into the chains , hot damn!!! If you sink a putt that you know you have the skills for , Captain Jack. Throwing a free round of Disc Golf opens doors my friends. That is ALSO what it is all about. Opening Doors 

DECEMBER:

What a drag. Can't believe that December is already upon us and as you know , Not My Favorite. Seven flipping days in and I cant even count the amount of times I have shook my head in disappointment. 


Xmas tends to lead a downward trajectory and that's has been the case for years now. I shouldn't admit that but Phuc the commercialized Xmas deal. Let's just choose to focus on snowshoeing and random acts of kindness. 


Now I would not say that I am pointing any fingers here but ever since my finger laceration my phone receives daily spam text messages. Like an unreal amount. There are multiple times when I hear my phone but I don't even bother checking. The other day , first time in decades , I made the conscious decision to leave my phone on the dresser. I even had the fleeting thought of WHAT IF?? Sh*t , I just figure it out and I don't need to rely on this phone to navigate life. Talk About Freeing 


I traversed through life without a cell phone in my pocket for an entire day. I haven't been able to do that in years , if not decades. Countless times I grabbed for it , didn't actually need it , but the habit was there. Couldn't even imagine my headspace if I was on Instagram or CrackBook. What Am I Missing Folks 

I mean , Hey Frank??? These here spam messages are running rampant ever since I filled out all those Phuc - N forms in order to receive my 6 stitches. Coincidence 


So tonight is something that I do enjoy participating in. Tonight is the annual Light Parade on Main Street were just over 100 floats meander around town. I have actually rode on three separate floats over the 25 years. But most often it's me and a few of us walking along or riding or bike along the route. Tonight , I have over dressed my cruiser with LED lights , most likely a three gummy night , and will definitely mix up a couple of batches of very hot coco for my two red plaid thrums. Thrumusiss ? Thurmus X2 sis ? Thermoses ? Not sure about the correct grammar there. Ether way , I am still doing it wrong. In closing , will be mighty cheery while I ride my well lit beach cruiser long Main Street as a true renegade of the Holidaze Spirits. Picture An Ear To Ear Grin  


Oh Well. Just moving through time and space. Somedays I'm in complete control. Somedays I wonder more than I should. Somedays Are One Of Those Days 

Stay Spicy ,

Cheers

  1. Love the dogs and the pinecone turkeys! What a great idea.

    The spam is super-annoying. I don't get much cell-phone spam here -- certainly not as much as that -- but every once in a while I'll get some message about an undelivered parcel and I know it's spam because I'm not expecting any parcels.
