First Meal Brought To You From The Bachelor Cafe - Twilight Banana & Cranberries

Aldi's Knock Your Spouts Off lightly toasted bread. Smart Balance, walnut halves
and cinnamon. Half of a twilight (green/yellow) banana and some home made
whole cranberry sauce, made with Stevia, cinnamon and substituted Chia seeds for
some poppy seeds.

Four of these please and compliments to the chef.

Canavalia gladiata - Sword Bean

From this angle it looks like a large wingless and legless grasshopper.

Just acquired this from a friends neighbor. She was generous
and willing to let me have one. As soon as I spied this from across
the fence it took me seconds for my mind to wrap around what I
was not sure what I was seeing. The vine that this grows from looks
like most typical bean plants but it's profile, which caught my eye spiked
my curiosity and need to posses. Once I show this off to budding Master
Gardner of mine I'll be looking forward to opening it up to reveal the seeds.
I'm also hoping to add these beans to my 'Health' wreath that I've been
sceamming and designing anad currently drying out and I hope these
beans will make an interesting addition.

Found Some New Orchid Fertilizer

Ta Dahhhh!

Going to use this fertilizer
with micro nutrients to insure
my recently acquired Ionopsis
orchid in hopes that it will bloom
again.

Also it will give me something
else to throw at my Cacao Tree,
which was brought back indoors
this evening to protect it from our
chilly fifty degree temperatures.

Reading Spaghetti Squash Hmmmm

Emptying my kitchen galvanized garbage pail this evening, only to reveal this.

Most probably heard of reading tea leaves, but this is a bit less obscure. 

Use your imagination if it's not obvious. Look close, look deep. Unadulterated.

How appropriate to, knowing that I just started a new novel with similar connotations.
Reading the fourth novel in this series and out of sequence that I found at our local
Library.

Who Me?

Like Two Beans In A Cacao Pod - Hint Hint

Brought in my two tropical favorites to spend in house and out of the cold
temps we will experience for a couple of days.

Cacao Tree and Ionopsis orchid.

Been tempted to leave the Cacao tree outdoors to chill it, or shock it into blooming, at
the risk of maybe even killing it.

Or sometimes you just can't rush things.

Deck The Yard with LED Lighting...Fa La La La Laaa

Either a holiday song gets wedged in my head or in this case
some unexpected low temperatures to get in the holiday spirit.

Having selected the icy cold blue colored LED lighting helps to bring the temps even 

lower when our Florida temps go sky high.
