Ha, Robert has surfaced again. It sounds like your 4 legged juvenile delinquent kept you on your toes while the Mrs was gone. Carrot cake! Well, why didn't you call for help? I'm much closer than Sarv and could have rescued you both from carrot cake excesses.

There's a pot of beans cooking on the wood stove for dinner. I'll season it with sausage, onions and tomatoes. Sometimes I use the wood stove for cooking things like this, keeping water hot, etc, instead of using electricity. After all, it's there, so why not?

This morning the microwave was misbehaving again. I sure don't understand that machine. After unplugging it a few times, pushing this and that, unplugging it a few more times my DH got it to display the minutes I wanted. Great, I put something in it, pushed start, no response, so we started all over. Finally I pushed cancel/reset about 10 times without touching anything else, entered some numbers and now it works. Like I said, I don't understand the machine.

This morning my horses were entertaining themselves nibbling my flowers over the fence while watching me inside the house. They thought it was time to feed them (they always do). It was just light enough to get this picture of Patch through the kitchen window. He likes the wild roses and you can see they are pretty well pruned.
