Mom's Business/Recipe Cards

 

Went through most of mom's recipes yesterday and found some interesting ones which she had printed on 4x6 cards which also had her business contact on them as well.  Along with the engraved Cutco knives she always had a way of making and maintaining a memorable business contact.    

I plan to compile an online recipe book on a special page of the blog but thought I would post a few images of her business/recipe cards.

Young Great Horned Owls: Morning Walk, April 24

Image
  While walking through the frisbee gold course across the street in the morning, we happened to see a family of Great Horned Owls, first time I had ever seen in the wild.  The parents were off a ways watching, the two young ones were very high up in the largest tree on the course.  Got several good photos below all shot with similar settings at ISO 100 and 400mm.  We did run the images through Topaz Sharpen AI using a Standard setting of 14% to sharpen them up a bit as these were all hand held photos pretty far away. Years ago at Indiana Dunes I remember reading about the Great Horned Owl in one of their exhibits.  It said that their night vision was so good that they could hunt inside the Lucas Oil Stadium with only a single candle lit in the stadium.  Unbelievable night vision! 1/500, f8, ISO 100, 400 mm 1/200, f7.1, ISO 100, 400 mm 1/320, f6.3, ISO 100, 400 mm 1/320, f6.3, ISO 100, 400 mm

Olympic Photo: Steve Prefontaine & Lasse Viren

Image
  Below is a digital scan of a photo taken during one of the most electrifying 5,000m races in Olympic history at the 1972 Munich games.   Steve Prefontaine only 21 at the time leads most of the race following his own strategy, "running from behind is chicken sh#t".  Lasse Viren (228) is in second and would go on to win.  Prefontaine's untimely death in 1975 prevented a rematch between these two running legends.  Viren swept gold medals in the 5k and 10k in '72 and '76 Olympics establishing him as one of the greatest performers in Olympic history.  Viren is best known for his negative split running where each lap is faster than the one before.  In the 1976 5,000m finals for example, Viren's last 1500m would have placed him 8th in 1500m finals that year.  Many marveled at Viren's dominance in the middle distance running especially with having little to no racing experience in-between Olympics.  Viren was a full-time police officer in Finland w...

  Babe Ruth (6'2", 215 lbs):  2004 Topps Legend Series Back of card: "Babe Ruth, who did more than any other player to establish baseball as an American institution, is still considered by most the greatest slugger in history.  His 0.690 slugging percentage - buoyed by 714 HRs - remains a career record, achieved in an era when the league-wide mark was 0.404.  He retired in 1935 with a 0.345 AVG and 12 HR crowns."
