I Can't Think of a Good Title for This Post

October 27 was Emily Post's Birthday. I wore my bow earrings.

October 28 was National Chocolate Day. I had some chocolate myself.

It was also Matt Smith's Birthday and the anniversary of the dedication of the Statue of Liberty so Jeremy and I started to watch the Doctor Who episode, "Angels in Manhattan," with both Matt Smith and the Statue of Liberty but Jet came to sit down with me and lately he's been starting to show fear in movies. 

This was him while watching Monsters Inc. one day.

So we watched enough to see the Statue of Liberty and Matt Smith and called it good.

The End.

Loony Muffins

October 27 was Emily Post's birthday. Jr. and Lucky made muffins with Raisin Bran (get it? Post? Raisin Bran?), a recipe for 6 week bran muffins from his Food Class. We're enjoying him taking that class.

There was plenty of batter to go around and it lasts 6 weeks in the fridge.

 

While they were making those, the rest of us went out to see a Pacific Loon, which was a lifer for some of us. We met a birding friend down there who drove around the pond as we walked to see the loon.

We got back in our van and were able to get in a good location to see it nice and close and get pictures.

While we were getting those pictures from the van, another birder friend drove up beside us. Ah, I miss my birding friends. It was so nice to chat for a moment from a distance out of our vehicle windows.

It was also nice to see other birds, including ospreys that are still around. 

Happy Birthday, Emily Post

I really couldn't resist.

October 27 is Emily Post's birthday and though I didn't have any plans to go to the library or the grocery store, that changed when Jeremy suggested this way to celebrate.
