"Tin Top in Parker County

Hell-of-a night. Unsettled Spring weather. Halcyan days of blue skys and bluer wild flowers with crashing storms and violent destruction.

After a night of terror for some in North Texas, we are left cold, kinda hung over feeling. Wind blowing from the North.

Watched the movie Brick. Try to find the soundtrack. The whole thing works so well as a piece of film. I do not know how the events and story make sense, but the filming: each scene is vivid and compelling.... maybe because of what you can't see, hear or follow. The intent is so straight and sure. Unwavering....

I made breakfast:

oatmeal plus:

cup of milk, two cups water. Bring to a boil and add:
1 cup 3 minute oats
1/2 cup brown sugar (or more)
1/2 tsp salt (or more)
4 or 5 prunes
1/2 cup raisins (or more)
1/2 cup Craisins (dried cranberries)
1 tsp cinnamin

Let come to rolling boil again then cut heat to simmer. Stir from time to time....I would have cut up an apples if I had thought of it!

Eat all for hearty breakfast.
