Teasing him, etc. They didn't like it when she made them get in her truck while she stood between them and the irritated bull, but she saved their lives.<br /><br />Some people think they're like cattle, and they aren't. Their much more intelligent and savvy. And those bulls can weigh close to a ton. And they're fast - up to 30 mph if they need to. <br /><br />You can't outrun them.<br /><br />Me? I tend to take the signs seriously. Even when we come across them while we're in our car, we drive slowly and keep moving. If you stop for too long, you become a potential enemy - especially to the cows with calves.Jan Drexlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609332074458434806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-32209534040689731012014-11-10T10:43:47.778-05:002014-11-10T10:43:47.778-05:00It looks like the butter would drip out to keep th...It looks like the butter would drip out to keep the bottoms from sticking. :) (I love lots of butter!)Missy Tippenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05480008023330542958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-30846181838733642682014-11-10T10:39:50.936-05:002014-11-10T10:39:50.936-05:00Beautiful scenery!!

And yes, it really messed with allergies, etc. I have a couple friends with Rheumatoid Arthritis, and they really suffered.<br /><br />Today, however, is cold-blowy-snowy.

I think you might be right about the steaming.<br /><br />You had better get your autumn chores finished! Winter hit us this morning, and as I was looking out at the snow I noticed our garden hose. Sigh. We forgot to put it in the shed. That will be first thing on the list the next time the temps go above freezing - - which won't be any time this week!Jan Drexlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609332074458434806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-26100037039703634392014-11-10T09:47:32.134-05:002014-11-10T09:47:32.134-05:00Thanks, Tina :)

You can come across one anywhere you go once you cross the cattle guards at the entrance.<br />Jan Drexlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609332074458434806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-88797278380282927452014-11-10T08:57:21.563-05:002014-11-10T08:57:21.563-05:00Now this is a dessert I can get behind!!!!

And you ta...Yum -- with hot custard poured over it. And you taught me something, Jan. When I've made baked apples before, I've cored the apple and left it whole and packed the brown sugar and cinnamon inside. But I like your idea of cutting them in half because you get more of that spicy goodness all the way through. Did you put water in the pan? I've always sat the apples in water...don't know why, just the way my mum did it. Maybe to steam it a bit? Or keep the bottoms for burning.<br /><br />I'm not quite ready to let go of autumn. I still have some gardening clean up to do. Leaves to rake. Crazy still blooming perennials that need to be cut back but they're so pretty I don't want to do it. Love your pictures. You live in an incredible part of the world.Kavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719229222267994577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-80281611593045351732014-11-10T04:45:39.234-05:002014-11-10T04:45:39.234-05:00yay almost time for snow pics! :-) while I sit dow...yay almost time for snow pics! :-) while I sit down here baking (actually it's hot in the day and cold at night which really messes with my ears and throat) I love cold weather so long as I don't get stuck with ice - never good with ice and afraid to drive on it and people down here don't know how to drive on it (like me). sigh.<br /><br />SusannaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
