Another beautiful day here in Western, NY, where we spent more time watching the birds at our feeder. I could just do that all day (that is if I didn't have a life). We saw the female and male Northern Oriole again and I'm pestering my spouse to keep suet in the house because that's what they seem to like to eat.

Jaw dropper of the day: As if the face of the Virgin Mary in the grilled cheese sandwich wasn't enough; a man from Newton, NJ, carved the face of the runaway bride in a piece of toast. The bride to be is Jennifer Wilbanks who ran away to New Mexico because she was nervous about getting married. Perry Lonzello from New Jersey etched her face in a piece of Wonder bread and put it on ebay to be sold. As of Friday the price was up to $15,400. The bidding closes today. In 2004 the grilled cheese sandwich with the Virgin Mary's face sold for $28,000. Next up, the face of Elvis Presley on rye. And then the image of Princess Diana on pumpernickel. There's no end to this craziness.

Enjoy your evening,
