Random Object Photographs

I really like this thread. There's not much telling what you might see when you look inside this one.

And yes, I did take take this silly pic. It's not some grab off the net.
 
I made this photograph years ago.

Alvin would show up every day and sit in my hand eating his lunch. What he didn't eat, he would stuff in his cheek pouches, then scurry off to put the peanuts in his den, saving them for another day. He often made several trips.

It always amazed me that this little animal would sit in my left hand while my right hand was pointing a big black camera at him from just inches away, and making a loud click each time I'd press the shutter button.

The text is something I remember from somewhere years and years ago, possibly a greeting card. It seems relevant here, so I added it to my photograph.

I am lucky to have a 6 year old granddaughter that LOVES to bake.
She usually comes and spends a day with us once a week.
This week, she decided to make her favorite for me,, chocolate chip cookies.

Grandma ran the Hobart mixer, Anna did the rest!! :D

OH,,, how I suffer,,,,,,, :eek:

:rolleyes:

Yum! Does she need another grandfather? I think it was Oscar Wilde who said, "I can resist any temptation except temptation, itself." Makes me want to head out for the bakery. Good thing they're closed for the night. You aren't suffering, either...who you think you're foolin'?

Besides cookies,, Anna is a bread machine GURU!! :)
I have to stay away from their house when the bread is coming out of the machine,,, :o
 
A very gravid female praying mantis on a weed head near my farm house. I don't cut or pull the weeds in the flower beds or the hedgerows in the fall, since mantis and other critters rely on the cover to lay egg cases, for food, etc.

I have really noticed lots of mantis this year. I love to watch them.
