rain how novel......

since yesterday......
ok so i should be thankful we ain't in texas right......?
actually no offence to folks from texas but i am always grateful about that

vicki, no i did not brine it.......(i don't think our deli's up here do that)
i did once brine a turkey and while bernie said it tasted good and was moist etc........i tasted salt......
and i love salt
but it was too much for me

i put together a butter cookie dough last night....... i told bernie 'there is butter cookie in the fridge'

he rolled it in cinnamon sugar.....and the said to me
'why didn't they flatten'?

ah, bern, they are BUTTER cookies not snickerdoodles.....that's why
oye
so i'll roll them out later and just cut them into squares
oye oye

he also got to watch 'nanny mcphee' last night.
i bought him the dvd from amazon, and with some dvd purchases you get a 24 hour rental free, so he got to watch it last night
he's been in a vile mood lately, i think cause of the heat.....who can blame him?
but i don't think it helped him to see malcom just walk into the crate with no drama for me last night, as that sort of blows his theory that malcom is nasty.
malcom is also lonely
i stuck my head over the deck rail yesterday, malcom was up here in the temporary pen to take a pond bath....
i called him he started to answer...
he stuck his little head around the over hang of the pen.....and looked up to see if it was me....
yup
hi mom
he got into the pond so he could really see me and started to talk and bath for me
'malcom, do your wings'
malcom did his wings
i wished i'd had the camera, i would have videod him talking to me
to show you guys
cause he was a riot
it's raining today so i cant' take the camera out there (it isn't water proof)
but if it does lighten up on the rain i hope to get a video of him doing that
cause it goes to show you
really even though he is a horny stud duck
he still is pretty personable.........
