[Magdalen] Cowboy pizza.

[Ann Markle]

We've got our drive and sidewalk down to the pavement.  Today I shoveled 3
feet of snow off the large front 2nd floor porch, in preparation for
putting out a bird feeder.  I waded through snow to my thighs in the back
yard to get the feeder and the suet feeder to hang in front (where I can
easily see them).  I feel bad that all through this snow, when they really
needed it, I haven't been able/willing to access the feeders to fill them.
But today I saw a chickadee in the back yard, and tomorrow I'll hang the
feeder out front and hope he finds it.
