DOUBLE RAINBOWS

Double rainbows this morning on our living room wall.....brought into being by my twinkly sun catchers.  

Over the years, we've seen double sky rainbows.  Legend tells that a double rainbow represents the material world and the secondary rainbow, the spiritual world.  Perhaps an internal awakening? 

Weather forecast is for colder temps to be heading our way.  Last evening I sat out on the deck and read for awhile.  That's significant for the 8th of November.  Memory serves us very well this morning about the foot of snow that fell on this date back in 1985.  Yuppers, actually over a foot fell and pretty much put a damper on everything.....including a surprise birthday party that was planned for months!  Mother Nature holds the trump card in her hand, and once in awhile she plays it as a reminder of her might and control.  

Had chili for supper last night, topped with shredded cheddar, sour cream, chopped green onions, chili powder and red pepper flakes.  Yumm-O.  My chili is topped off to the hilt, the hotter the better, both temperature-wise and otherwise.  Like to put chopped ripe olives on chili, too, but didn't want to open a can for myself.  Fritos would've kicked the chili out of the ballpark, but none in the cupboard.

Best scoot and start fixing the scalloped potatoes and ham casserole for supper tonight.  Like to bake it early, let it sit so the flavors marry, and then reheat at mealtime.  I learned terms like 'let the flavors marry' from watching the cooking shows on the Food Channel.  If nothing else, maybe it seems to others that I know what I'm talking about when I don't.  

Ta-ta for today!
