Nature Walks – A Playful Squirrel
Most of my squirrels are busy in the trees, but every now and then they like to run around and play on the ground. And sometimes, they even like to have their picture taken too.
I have worked in the restaurant and catering industry for over 35 years. I attended 2 culinary schools in Southern California, and have a degree in culinary arts from the Southern California School of Culinary Arts, as well as a few other degrees in other areas. I love to cook and I love to feed people.

Either you have a really good closeup lens, or those squirrels are remarkably tame!
Squirrels eat all the bird seed I put out for the birds so I put out walnuts for the squirrels and deer come down from the woods and eat the walnuts so I put out some lettuce leaves for the deer… Oh, boy! Say Jeanne, can I ask you something— I have several cans of Lima beans, peas, mushrooms, beef consommé, cream of mushroom soup and boxes of noodles and pasta that are mounting up in the cupboard — is there something I can make with just those ingredients with no meat or anything else?
Heck yeah! You can make some delicious soups or casseroles with all of those, or just use them as parts of a a meal. I do my best to NEVER throw away food if I can help it. 🙂
OK, maybe I’ll just throw all the cans of veggies in a skillet and heat them up and heat the noodles in a pot and heat the cream of mushroom soup separately and end up with a mushy medly — seriously, would that work?

We usually have a lot of rabbits, but this year, there hasn’t been as many.

That could easily work. And maybe add some protein of your choice, and voila!
