Robin’s first sunbath this year. He tried really hard to get some fleas or something out of his feathers, behind the ear/neck. Beak opens like this to ventilate.
This is the clearest and closest of a whale’s eye I ever saw. I was in a trance. I think the whale was, too. Locking eyes with this majestic creature was such an intense emotional experience. You would get the chills, too. In terms of distance, my face was right above the water and the eye was right under the surface so yes it was very close indeed.
Thank you, Denise!
I hope you get to experience the whales one day. And I thought Antarctica, the high arctic (Spitzbergen), the elephants (Namibia), and the polar bears in Churchill were incredible. But the whales… they blow them all out of the water.
Re tofu puffs, I just cooked them in chicken broth. The recipe calls for a different type of tofu (semi firm) and it’s cooked like Schnitzel, then prawn roe is sprinkled on top of the tofu right before eating.
Tofu puffs are also great in stir-fries and (noodle) soups.
I’m solo this week, and have never enjoyed cooking for just me, so I don’t eat that well when alone. I was inspired by great looking sandwich pictures, so I made a wonderful sandwich w/hand shaved ham, Duke’s Mayo, French’s Ballpark Mustard, sweet onion slices and baby dill slices, on a toasted French roll. It really hit the spot, and no need for dinner. Could have used a few potato chips, but didn’t have them.
Actually, I think it’s more like hand sliced ham, but there were shaved pieces on there, which was what I hoped for.
BUT, glad it you found it appetizing, I think? Hopefully you can satisfy your craving though!
As I wrote my earlier post, I did have an image of a razor, shaving a ham lol. - kind of like when I see a huge hand rolled doobie when I think of smoking fish.
