Hi, Arky -

I've been trying to get a quote, without success so far, to replace some of my cedar fascia with cement board. How much did they quote you for the siding?

We didn't get one because we'll DIY, but at lowes it was $9 a ft

Monday morning there was a dead armadillo by Stan's car when we were getting ready to go to work. that afternoon, Stan got home and it was buried under a pile of dirt. evidently, Mojo had buried it, and when Stan went to dig it out and get rid of it, she tried to stop him. It was hilarious but frustrating. The dogs kill about two a week.

Heap o rain comin' your way, Arks!

4795. arkymalarky - 8/30/2012 9:29:15 PM

I'm bracing, hoping not to drive in it.

Where I live got eight inches of rain over the past three days and it is utterly pouring now too!

4797. arkymalarky - 9/1/2012 5:55:25 AM

We didn't end up getting much--under 2".

Is it monsoon season already?

4801. thoughtful - 10/15/2012 6:04:38 AM

A welcome visit this afternoon from a red pilated woodpecker. Second time in a week. Damn big bird. Don't believe I've seen one before. Beautiful. Hammering away on an old maple tree.

4803. robertjayb - 11/6/2012 4:54:28 PM

Help!

It is snowing and I am trapped in Wisconsin...

The best thing I've ever put on a bagel, and it's taken years to find it.

Smoked Tuna Salad (i.e. Essa Bagel) – a work in process.

3 oz smoked salmon (West coast, not lox)
6 oz chunk tuna
3-4 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 tbl lemon juice
7-8 baby carrots
Salt to taste (pinches)

Place carrots in food processer and chop finely. Add tuna and salmon and incorporate with food processor. Add lemon juice, salt, and mayonnaise; run processor until desired consistency. May try this with some celery.

That sounds delicious! Cutting the smoked salmon with canned tuna evens out that strong smoked flavor, too...genius!

4806. judithathome - 11/8/2012 8:25:47 PM

OOOhhh...maybe add a teaspoon or so of dill pickle relish!

Smoked salmon and dill? Primo!

Pray for global warming:)

The hell's 'West Coast smoked salmon'? Nova I know, Scottish I know, lox I know.

4809. Wombat - 11/9/2012 3:18:58 AM

Hot smoked, not cold smoked. Like Kippered Salmon

4810. iiibbb - 11/9/2012 2:24:52 PM

I may have over-reported lemon juice requirement, cut that by half... I eyeball everything but the fish (packaging)
