While the turtles are finding some 4 star mud at the bottom of ponds to sleep in for the winter, the hummingbirds are on the way to their Caribbean vacation. So, until next spring, Ruby we’ll miss you.

Turtle Thursday – Guest Bighorn Sheep – Photography
09/10/2015There’s not much water for turtles here in the Badlands of South Dakota, so our guest today is this bighorn sheep. It was a long way up the ridge to get here and it cost two Clif Bars for the pose. The technical details are; uncropped, 55mm, f6.3, 1/100 sec, ISO 100 and shake reduction on for the photographer.

Turtle Thursday – Guest Cat – Photography
09/04/2015Two things are wrong with this week’s Turtle Thursday. The first and obvious thing, this is Friday. The second and not so obvious, there is no turtle. So until I find more turtle pictures, filling in as a guest turtle this week is Big Boy.

Jarlsberg Cheese – Food Review – Trader Joe’s
09/04/2015
Jarlsberg Cheese
Trader Joe’s
September 4, 2015
This is what we call in the US, Swiss cheese. However, this time the cheese is made in Norway. So don’t call it Swiss. Call it Jarlsberg.
The cheese is; soft but firm, easy to cut, mild, and tastes like a mild Swiss cheese with sometimes just a very little hint of sweetness. It cuts easily into chunks which are perfect for a cheese tray or noshing. Trader Joe cuts and repackages this cheese from a wheel. The new wrapping is just a bit loose, so don’t store it in your refrigerator too long or parts will dry out a bit. It’s a good cheese and not horribly expensive at $7.49 per pound.
Price $7.49 per pound Calories 100 per ounce (28 g)
ALDI – Clancy’s Horseradish Cheddar Chips – Food Review

Clancy’s Horseradish Cheddar
Kettle Chips – ALDI
If the package wasn’t different I wouldn’t know these were not the same chips as the Trader Joe’s chips reviewed last week. That’s three “nots” in the same sentence. To say it more clearly, these chips seem to be from the same supplier as the similar Trader Joe’s chips, except for one thing, these have more flavor.
