We never did lose power, thankfully. We have finally started getting some rain. No rain since March…trees and shrubs must be thrilled.
My Thanksgiving cactus must be a halloween cactus; it is the second time it is blooming.
Today will be the 1/4 pound hotdogs. My sis raved about these, so I hope we love them as much as she says we should, LOL.
I've never had fried chicken. Maybe that will be my next meal on the outside.

Re: So...whats for dinner?
DH found the Jacque Pepin reel with the butternut squash recipe, but it was stovetop and required tending. I was lighting the oven anyway for the oven fried chicken thighs so I used a pan. I saw a tip online on a video to poke fork holes in the whole squash and microwave it for three minutes to make peeling easier. Still not "easy." I need to get a different peeler since mine is mostly for potatoes and carrots. Anyway, I tossed the peeled and cubed squash with olive oil, s & p, honey and balsamic vinegar. It was really, really good. The chicken thighs ok.
I am craving fried chicken so a Popeye's meal is in our future. The popeye's is never as good as imagined but cures the craving.
Tonight will probably be ribeye and potato salad. I have potatoes that need to be cooked and I have a yen for my mashed potato salad.
Minus, I have wondered whether your diet includes adequate protein.
No rain last night. The shrubbery looks desperate for water.

Forgot to mention sloths live with their mother for 18 months. One sloth would regularly escape from its walled enclosure (about 4 feet high), but would always come back. They weren't able to determine how it got over the wall. Each has their own tree and they are not in close proximity to each other.
Costa Rica forbids photos with any sanctuary animals. If someone were to post such a photo, the sanctuary would immediately be forced to close and lose all financial support. They do not want the animals exploited. I could have included the face of the worker holding the babies, but decided not to even though her face would have been permissible because she was an employee.

Thanks to all of you who marched. Please remember this forum is apolitical and we don't want the moderators to have to remind us about this.

Betrayal, thanks so much for sharing your photos. I almost feel like I’m there too

Yesterday we were in Costa Rica and our excursion was the entire day. We first took a long bus ride from Punta arenas to the aerial tram site. It also had a butterfly garden but taking photos was a real challenge in the enclosure. The metallic blue ones were so beautiful and it seems Mercedes and BMW have invested millions in trying to capture the color for their car color.
