Discovering Uber Eats

I had visitors who had travelled some distance and didn’t feel like going out. Where I live the delivery options are quite limited…until now. For the first time I tried ‘Uber Eats’. We ended up with Caribbean (Jamaican) food courtesy of ‘Cravin Jamaican Cuisine’ (cravinjc.com/) in nearby Ossining, NY. It was quite good too (particularly the jerk chicken)! Above: Vegetable Stew with plantains, rice and beans.

Self Portrait

Self portrait after a haircut. Lovely cool, sunny day in NY State. Having lunch outside at ‘The Patio’ in Briarcliff Manor. The plan is to walk the 45 minutes back to the house (done), have a short break and then take Harley out for a walk (done – walked for about one hour).

I took this self-portrait because I’m seldom in any pictures. I’m usually the other side of the camera.

Hallowe’en’s coming

I guess Hallowe’en is just around the corner. This picture was taken from Sleepy Hollow Road. For any of my non-American friends who might not get the reference – possibly the most famous American Hallowe’en story is that of Ichabod Crane, his ill fated romance with Katrina Van Tassel and his encounter with with the headless horseman as described in “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” by Washington Irving. It’s a great read. Sleepy Hollow is the next town to mine and I’m often found walking in the nearby woods or in Sleepy Hollow Cemetery/The Old Dutch Burial Ground.
