It´s been down into the very low 20´s this past week...we´re waiting for snow (smile), I love the peacefulness of it. It is a time when all seems well. Meanwhile, I´m keeping my family warm with big batches of soup and warm, out-of-the oven, bread. Today´s soup, a spiced up vegetable rice served with lime wedges and shredded cabbage to garnish. Keeping it hearty...a couple of whole wheat white bread loaves; a pleasant and cozy meal.
And for the feathered variety, I am making use of a left over Fall pumpkin...keeping some of my most favorite neighbors happy.
The Stellar´s ALWAYS eat first! Stellar´s Jay´s are mostly common to the Northwest region of the United States. They are beautiful, being related to the Blue Jay.
The gentle Morning Dove (a fairly common bird across North America, winter´s here), waiting patiently their turn.
The weather is icy-cold and gloomy, but there is much joy to be found in the midst of these grey seasons.

Such perfect pics and writing as always. I miss the snow.
Thank you Ling, I´d love to update my camera so that I could get better quality pictures. One day. We keep waiting for snow, it feels like it should. So far we´ve only had a little dusting (around Thanksgiving). There´s still hope for more though.
