Look What Caught My Eye Today - Aronia


Aronia Melanocarpa - Chokeberry

Won't know whether they are the Red,Purple or Black Chokeberry
until they fully ripen. I may have to to put some netting over them
until they ripen. I purchased this from our Florida Native Plant Society.

Second Handfull In Three Days



Even if you grow them yourselves there
is no guarantee that they will taste great.
You know where they came from, how
they were grown and most of all, how
fresh.

I will place these into a brown paper bag
to see if it will do it's magic.

Ode To Blue


 























I've had this cobalt blue glass scone for years now and just now putting it to some use.

For years now our city as installed a similar colored lighting on our traffic lights and not
for decorative purposes either and without getting into their purpose it only brought back
to my attention why I was drawn to this color.

You've seen this color in stained glass in churches. Probably in the last ten years of Christmas
three lighting that utilize LED. How about runway lighting too. You know you've seen it and
it is almost hard not to stare at it's glow. Not to mention those electrical appliances that have
those beady blue tine ball of blue. Be it a PC computer or coffee maker too. Your car may have
them too as part of the dash or your car stereo.

It's not easy staying blue when you've looked at something of this hue.


Repurpose, Repaint and Hoo Hoo Knows

Take a break from painting the house for moment
and do something just as monotonous. I just realized
how monotonous the word monotonous is spelled.

Could it be any more monotonous?

The sun is way beyond setting and an owl hoots not far away.

First Meal With Added Spaghetti Squash

And yet still missing something.


I thought if I stared at this long enough it would either make me hungry enough to recreate it and
explore what it needs. I've often found out that what it needs is an attitude adjustment in the name
of some heat, spicy heat. Some Sriracha heat to be more exact.

Just Mayo has one that I've been experimenting with. This is from someone that has never liked
mayonnaise. Still has that typical mayo taste but with that extra kick. I think the reason I gravitate
to this mayo is because I use very little and it's still novel.

Bigggg Birds



Groups of peafowl (any sex and age) can be called a bevy, a muster, an ostentation, and a pride.
