Like a Hurricane

While I was photographing some of my newly fired towers outside today, (stay tuned for those) this baby lizard ran by. The gray above the lizard is the grout line of the brick planter, so you can just imagine how tiny he is. When the lizard was on the white walkway he ran like crazy, but once he ran onto the bricks he stayed motionless. Somehow baby lizards instinctively know how to camouflage themselves.

I love blue cheese, actually any kind of cheese, but blue cheese is close to the top of the list. But Gary doesn't like blue cheese so I don't use it in our cooking. I splurged on a small package of blue cheese the other day. I was trying to think of a way to eat it short of just digging in with a fork. For lunch I baked myself a sweet potato and then it hit me. Why not crumble some blue cheese over the top. So I cut the freshly cooked potato open added a dab of butter and then crumbled some blue cheese over the top. It was so delicious. Just writing this makes me hungry for more. Notice I even took a bite before I took the photo. Try it, you might like it.

We've done what we could to prepare for Isaac, stocking up on canned goods and bottled water and digging out our propane camping stove to cook on. Here's Neil Young, blown away, in Like a Hurricane. Isaac looks to graze by us slightly. Hope the folks down South and farther North fair as well. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
