A coastal storm continues to pound the OBX this morning, the OBX has received more than 7 inches of rain since yesterday morning and the wind is blowing very hard. They have gusts of 62 and 63 mph and sustained winds this morning of over 50 mph and the power is out in allot of places. A fellow blogger in NC said at his house all his drainage ditches are full and the wind has blown all night. I will try to post some more photos later today, I am sure there is going to be some severe beach erosion. We are suppose to get some rain here in CH today and some wind also but not no where as bad as they are getting on the OBX. MICKEY

Get Hip to Tofu!
It's not just for hippies! Tofu has timeless health benefits, and is one of the most nutritious sources of protein there is. Try it as a low-fat stand-in in dishes that normally call for meat. Tofu comes in a range of densities: silken, soft, firm and extra firm. Firm or extra-firm tofu holds its shape when sliced; use it for stir-fries, stews and braises. Soft and silken tofu is creamier. When pureed, tofu adds richness to dips and dressings like hummus and baba ghanoush.

I hope my wild yellow beach cat is ok. She can get under the house. It has probably flooded under the house. Yellow will have to stay on the ping pong table.
