Cute little guy! I had a brief visit from 8 or 10 deer this morning as they roamed through my property. At least 3 of them were antlered bucks and they seemed to think the rut was still on because they were harassing the does a bit. Now I can see about a dozen turkey scratching around in the snow covered corn field behind my house. The turkey population seems to have decreased substantially since last year when I would often see 3-4 dozen at a time in the winter months. That trend seems to be nearly nationwide and the wildlife biologists are placing much of the blame on predators like raccoons, possums, and coyotes which have had population explosions since trapping is no longer profitable. Nature is both beautiful and ruthless.

I play Wordle every morning and share results with two of my best friends. Time means nothing to us. Take your time. One of us uses the same starting word every day so she cannot post her results until the rest of us have posted ours since her results reveal spoilers. One day I got it first word. It surprised me more than anything. Since that high point I have gone 6 and out a couple of times. We do keep a list of winning words, regularly updated by moi.

My aunt has the newest version of the Thermador speed/wall oven combo and loves it, worked great for her. I decided to buy the same for myself May 2021. Was delivered in April 2022. It smelled like burning rubber/plastic every time I used it. They kept telling me all new ovens have stuff they need to burn off, but it was still doing it in both ovens 2+ months later and wasn't getting better. I had them sent back (took me a while to convince them) and ordered Wolf instead. Could have just been a lemon, but I won't be buying Thermador again. Have a Wolf induction cooktop and hood that I love!

Cute. I am glad you said something . I finished it and moved on and never saw the treat!
