Round the corner... by maggiemae

Round the corner...

The iPhone might not be so good at distant shots - I have yet to find out. This is just round our corner looking towards rural landscapes and in particular at a vibrant yellow field. Might be canola - or rape. but I'm sure I chose f14.. didn't happen!
Thankful for:
A disaster with boiled egg lunch - it was like eating egg soup! But we both ate everything which did include licking!
A wonderful rural scene , and I love that interesting sky !

It's probably a sky that is the same in your area, Beryl - beginning of summer and the end of yours!

That's lovely.....gives a great feel of your community. We have lots of the yellow oil seed rape in spring too....but a while to wait for it!

@ninaganci I don't have a foolproof recipe for boiled eggs, Nina - its always hit or miss!

@seattlite Funnily enough, I don't notice the sky when I'm taking a photo - it comes to my attention when I download the photo!

@sarah19 We are lucky enough to live in a small town, Sarah! It has so many benefits!

@sangwann Most cities are like that everywhere - how confining. The countryside is different every day!

@louannwarren I made a mistake by not altering the f stop here - it was still on f2 and should have been a lot higher for landscape!

Love this landscape, the golden field and beautiful sky. fav.
Now to boiled eggs.
I boil water and with a spoon put the eggs into the boiling water. if the water keeps on boiling, I time normal size eggs 5 minutes, extra large eggs 5 and 1/2 minutes. I have a bowl of ice cold water standing to receive the eggs. let them cool for a bit a minute or two and then I take them out, dry them off and they're ready to enjoy. if I cook more eggs, they go into the fridge to eat cold, use them in salads or make an open sandwich by slicing them on bread, add a bit of mayonnaise on top, salt and pepper. whatever you prefer. try it they taste good.

@bruni Thanks Bruni - I've found if the eggs have even the slightest flaw in them, they crack when put into hot water. With a spoon would be wise!
October 6th, 2019  
egg soup?
October 6th, 2019  
@yaorenliu Yup - so uncooked but not quite raw - I could have used a soup spoon!

Great sky, love it. Sympathise re the boiled eggs, I did some the other day and the shells were so fragile that one bust as I picked it up --> fingers and bench liberally adorned with egg yolk.

@golftragic You just can't waste a good egg - finger sucking is acceptable!
October 6th, 2019  
@maggiemae I couldn't agree more, but I drew the line at slurping up what was on the bench.

Pretty neighborhood! I would love to see fields beyond me- but there are too many trees in the way. They can be a nice view too so that's ok.
