What you use on your phone for a wallpaper is not of my business. For me that is "private use" and there is no point in me trying to control it.
The alterations and republication of the photo however is a different story…

And no I am not in any cave group on Facebook (or have used it in the last year).

'Decoration'
I made this painting (the first one I made in this technique with a structure under the acrylic paint). Also the home decoration with wallpaper and the new (knitted) cover on the chair I did myself.

Got Sugar? Raising Cane since 1791-1825
MA Patout and Sons, Patoutville, La
It’s all unrefined Turbanado. They run it through a steam process. It’s not bleached ever. After grinding, the waste cane and leaves, known as bagass is dried and burned to create steam to run the mills. They produce 10% of a tablespoon worth of sugar that folks consume that’s produced in America as a whole.

I love this lens. Yes the focus plane is millimeters thick, but if you manage to get the focus to the right distance and not shake the camera, the results are geat.

DIRTY DISHES

..... dog food dish, that is. Our farm dogs are fed homemade stew. The ingredients are basically via permaculture methods. Much from our farm, some from the community hunters and fishermen. Tonight's dinner contained potatoes, pumpkin, pipinola, green beans, avocado, lamb, and fish. Every meal is a bit different, depending upon the season.

LEFTOVERS

We enjoyed Thanksgiving leftovers for quite a while. In the end, I still had cornbread stuffing leftover and thought I might try something different. I pan fried the stuffing like hash and topped with poached eggs.



I do believe it will be another traditional Thanksgiving leftovers meal!

10 - Solar. Ha, it's a stretch, but solar energy grew the weeds which I wove into the fence, to chicken proof the chicken run.

This oak tree is not remarkably large but the base is very unique. I'm sure it has been cut many times because of the hydro lines above and there is now a giant burl at the bottom.

I drove past it today on a street I have never been on.

Raising a barn in 35 degree temps.  :)  The siding is supposed to go on tomorrow, but a storm just blew in and it's snowing pretty good out there, so we'll see.  (The guy in red is my husband)
