๐ŸŒฟVariegated Monstera, deer, and a fire!

First, big news in the realm of worker protections. Kellogg's has settled with its workers. This is a relief. Yes, Red, Kellogg's is a US company, but they tend to start trends, usually negatively, and it spreads to Canadian companies, as a lot are -US-owned. The wage gaps and compensation packages between front line workers and CEOs are increasing.
From a Tweet


I had a text from Caitlin, in Ottawa, last night. Apparently, the transformer next door was on fire. They are campers and had lots of LED lights.


 They watched as Hydro crews arrived. It was decided to replace the transformer, but the pole was too damaged. They had to put the new transformer on their pole in their backyard. Two big trucks and a pick up truck were there. Great excitement! Then, the baby crane arrived. Ooh, I want one!

Seriously, so many work at night, in the dark to help out their fellow citizens.


As they worked, the girls were nibbling chips, noses pressed against the window, watching them work.
"This is better than a movie!"


The power came on after 10, but they were hunkered down by the pellet stove! What a pair! I miss them muchly.




Have you heard about these ? I heard the morning news at 5:30 a.m., and had to look it up. Look at the prices! They are being bought and flogged by social media influencers


OK, back to nature! I gathered myself up to go out and fetch trailcam memory cards. There was a friend under the bird feeder. He didn't seem too worried about me – must be a regular. I think he is half of our pair we call 'You Two!'

Sure enough, around the corner, there was mama at the feeder. He has little antler buds, in preparation for next year.


Putting out some deer food, they were grateful. Later on there was a group of 4 deer. I love to see them.

Poor bear did a face plant and lost an eyeball. Googly eyes. I'll have to find them. I've nearly cleaned out a lot of my crafting stuff, but surely I have another! It's raining today, so I may be able to find the old one as the snow melts.

Joseph Brian cannot have dairy, yeast or eggs. He usually has whole wheat wraps for 'sandwiches!' I decided to make myself some crescent rolls. You know – the Pillsbury ones. We don't have any yeast or eggs in the house, and I don't bake much. This is a quick and easy treat for me.  

๐ŸฆƒI think they look like Dave's Turkey. The second one was as bad as the first. If you haven't listened to the story, you should. It's a classic. Here it is on YouTube. I didn't do this! Honest. It looked like this when I unrolled them. They taste just fine!
