October Rain

Awesome rain this morning!  Lots of wind.  Cooking breakfast tacos: jimmy dean turkey sausage, old red potatoes sauteed in evoo, and HEB chunky salsa in a grilled tortilla! Yummy!

Yes, we have a WOLF 2 burner gas range on our kitchen which is located under the tin roof porch.  It's pretty fancy!  LOL
