Fruit Cup

The strawberries are about finished, and the blackberries are just starting to ripen. It isn't much, but letting it go bad just isn't reasonable. That's a condiment dish, so it really isn't much. I added a dollop of sour cream.

New Fountain

We made a little concrete pad and wired it but couldn't get the fountain we already had to work. We couldn't replace the motor because of the size of the connection. So we finally bought one today. It isn't very loud but it's peaceful.

White

The daisies, magnolias, crepe myrtles, and gardenias are giving me a lot of white in the yard right now. The roses are between blooming cycles. The day lilies are mostly yellow right now. I had a lot of pink, but that has pretty much run its course. The flower boxes and baskets have red angelwing begonias that are coming along, but they aren't as lush as they will be in a couple of weeks.

Bluegrass

A friend gave me a start of blue grass in three different colors...blue, purple, and white. It was three years ago. The blue and purple grew, multiplied, and bloomed immediately. The white never showed up so I thought she had accidentally given me two purples and one blue because I could tell all three clumps had survived. But this year the white one bloomed for the first time. It is a lovely, snowy white.

Sirloin Stockade, Murray, TN

I overheard a couple of people at the hospital talking about the Sirloin Stockade in Murray, TN. So today we tried it. It reminded me of the Golden Corral. We both enjoyed it and plan to go again.

Atkins Lunch

Mexican style chicken and vegetables was today's lunch. It was a frozen meal that was on my diet. I liked it enough to have again.

Hawk

Larry was really excited when a hawk flew past his windshield holding a squirrel he'd caught. I wish I'd seen it.
