If You Give a Moose a Muffin

If you have ever read the children's book, If You Give a Moose a Muffin, you will understand that when you do give a moose a muffin, he'll want jam to go with it.  We were in the mountains of Utah the other evening on Right Hand Fork just the four of us with the windows down and the kids in the front seat looking at the beautiful aspen trees changing colors and we saw a great big MOOSE!  It was so exciting because I had never seen one in real life, just in pictures.  I turned to grab my camera to take a picture and realized that I didn't have it.  I had left it at home with the batteries plugged in to charge.  So I thought, I'll get my phone and try to get a picture, but I didn't have it either.  It was dead so I had plugged it in before we left.  So there we were staring at this moose with huge antlers and large beard waiting to see what he was going to do and I had nothing to prove that I had seen it.  We have been on that same road near that same spot with camera and phone in hand twice now, and have yet to see any other wildlife.  Maybe next time we go out, I will have some blueberry muffins in hand along with some jam.  Do you think that will attract him again?  I sure hope so!

Homemade Bread

Because of all the recent events in our country right now, going to buy staples, like bread, in the grocery store has become very difficult....
