DON’T be put off by the ingredients in this super winter pasta dish. Depending on where you are when you are reading this, winter has either been a no-show or you’re cursing that damn gopher in Pennsylvania! I’m in NYC and we’ve had a “pass” (so far) on a snowy, frosty, icy winter. Thank you [...]

Well not really because he isn’t even black after all. The little creature in question is actually a purple blue iridescent. Murray has been out and about and ventured to Roosevelt Island which really is an island off the island of Manhattan. He came across some great gardens and took fabulous photos of yellow jackets, [...]

There’s more than one “Terminator” in the news these days. In fact I have some spectacular photos of a couple of them in action. It seems it’s not just seeds and nuts upon which our feathered friends thrive. Please be advised that these photos contain graphic acts of ornithological violence, however, Mother Nature is responsible [...]

About a week ago, I was in the Grove and it was a miserable night. It had been raining for a while and due to the bad drainage problem on our street, there was a river of water about 2 feet wide I had to cross or jump over to get into my car. I [...]

FAB FOTO FRIDAY I know the heading says Friday but as you can see I am once again a day late! Even though recently I had a Squirrely Saturday, I love these little creatures (as long as they stay outside) and luckily so does Murray. I think this series is remarkable not only in content [...]
