*Or – I have a lot of stray photos and nothing else to post about today.
1. Puppies and babies go together really well.
2. It’s good to have something to look forward to – like zuchinni.
3. Never go on a trip without your Smarties.
4. A glass of wine on the porch before dinner is a very good thing. Even if the hay still needs to be mowed.
5. Marry a man who likes to garden, so you can enjoy food like this.
6. End the day looking at this.
Here is one more:
Make sure to tell the favorite people in your life you care about them often.
Hey Ellyn – I love ya! :)
Wonderful words to live by Dlyn. great pics. =)
What a great post for one you didn’t have! Love all the pics.
Puppies, babies, wine, veggies, love, and beauty. What more could anyone want?
Well, maybe chocolate.
Makes me want to sit on the porch, drink wine, get pregnant, adopt a puppy and watch a rainstorm. (Not in that order and not all at once, either…)
No need for words with photos like that.
Thank You
Do you ever cook the zuchini blossoms?
I always wondered what they taste like.
YR
I can’t argue at all with your choices. Well… I might substitute chocolate for the Smarties.
I’m enjoying your posts.
you aren’t tooo bad either.
Nothing to post about? I think not. I enjoyed this one immensely! What’s in the bowl of vegetables?
To everyone who suggested it – I can’t believe I forgot the chocolate – guess I will have to save that for my next essentials to life post!
Lori – all at once would certainly entertain the neighbors! LOL!
YR – fried squash blossoms taste like whatever you use to bread or batter them – in other words, darned yummy. We haven’t had them in a long time though because that would cut down on the zuchinni supply and we are absolute addicts. We eat it every single day that there is some in the garden that is ready.
CG – it is a chopped salad – lots of different mesclun greens, green onions and radishes from the garden. The rest, at this point in the early summer, still comes from the store – cukes, tomatoes [safe ones of course] red pepper, black olives, garbanzo beans – topped off at serving time with creamy feta cheese dressing. hmmmmmm – I feel a recipe post coming on!
Glad you all enjoyed it!
And a good day was had by all!
I stopped at WalMart today and picked up some stuff to send to Lauren. Have my priority box and everything in it. Need to write a note and ship!
I LOVE FRIED SQUASH BLOSSEMS THEY ARE DELISHOUS! I did a whole post on them a while back… love the pics today! babies and puppies are wonderful!
This is a good one, babies and puppies do go together! I really miss everyone, love you guys.
Ooh, I get to go right after Lauren! I thought I should let you know (and Lauren will let out a startled gasp at this) that I have discovered that I now LIKE squash. It’s been nearly 25 years coming but now Lauren is all alone at the squash-hating table when we visit. Sorry baby, life goes on. :D
What a great photo of Anna Banana and Kindle!!! Love Zucchini, found a smartee wrapper under my seat yesterday after our trip last week, I;ll get my beer and join you for cocktail hour, oooooh salad sounds yummy and refreshing, Gorgeous skies.
Dlyn’s post….priceless :)
I love stray photos! And that looks like a great day.

Flea – that is so nice – it still startles me how many people responded to that post! I answered you hosta question somewhere around here too.
Laura – I will have to go look that up on your blog!
We miss you too kiddo!
Steve – so glad you have come over to the dark side – in summers to come you can help us eat ours up! Maybe Lauren will even learn to appreciate them.
Sorry Weezee – thought I got all of those picked up. *burp*
