little more

Well, I have this new camera you see which takes giant pictures with enormous pixel count. So when I post them directly to the blog everything gets all blogged up, naturally. I think I have fixed it now but it took me a while and hopefully I didn’t annoy anyone too much with the crazy formatting problem. I have to say that I preferred my old “point and shoot” camera, but have not yet given up on the new one.

It has been raining a lot here which is very good for the dams around the state as they are all starting to fill up to more acceptable levels. It has rained over an inch a day for the last week.

Watched the mighty Roger Federer win the Canadian Master in Toronto today. I thought Gasquet had a chance but it was not to be. Wonderful tennis, even with a few too many errors.

Planning a smutty Mexican lunch this week sometime. More on that later.

I hope, by the way, with fresh sweet corn on the cob on the horizon all over Canada, that you will try, (or not forget to try), the Mexican solution: Plunge the corn into boiling water and once it returns to the boil turn off the heat and let it sit in the hot water for ten minutes; then smother with lots of butter, salt, big dobbs of some good mayonnaise and some cayenne pepper (and a little lime juice if you like). Enjoy!! Delicious!! Finally finding some decent sweet corn in osme of the tiendas around here, incidentally.
