Good Morning

Wednesday Witterings

It turned out to be a sunny day after the last few days of meh. So I went for a walk into town. Picked up some more mushrooms and did a favour for Mary at number 27. She wanted five copies of the picture I took of Anna and her friends when they did the Monday food fest.

Last night I watched two Marvel movies, one on a DVD and the other on the Disney Plus channel. The DVD was The Punisher, which is more of a crime vigilante thing similar to Gotham. The other was the martial arts supernatural thriller Shang Chi and The Legend Of The Ten Rings. Both are pretty good in their different ways.

Blasts From The Past

Another musical blast from the past -

Fleetwood Mac - The Chain

Area Code 615 - Stone Fox Chase

Just Wondering

Is your kitchen garbage pail out in the open or under the sink?

When you are old(er), what do you think children will ask you to tell stories about?

What food is delicious but a pain to eat?

Good Night
