Just Because

Nothing going on this week,

which is good in some ways, so here's

a few pics of this and that.

 

 

 

 

This Polish sausage is so good.  It's Farmer John brand, and I make it sometimes with eggs, rice, or even plain.

 

 

When I picked all the dry petals from my red rose  bush, a new rose sprouted up, and it was so strange, because it came up Pink.

 

 

 

I am from a family of surfers, and look who had her first surfing lesson, little Francesca!  Her dad said she had a fun time, but was a little timid at first.  She's wearing a wet suit haha.

 

 

 

Did you watch the Christmas in July shows too? 

 

 

 

I saw three fireflies on the side of my house one night.  They really do light up!  And I saw three white butterflies too.  I didn't take a picture because I just sat and gazed at them for awhile.

 

I will leave you with a sweet poem.

 

"The Violet"

( Jane Taylor)

 

Down in a green and shady bed,

A modest Violet grew,

Its stock was bent, it hung its head,

As if to hide from view.

And yet it was a lovely flower,

Its colors bright and fair;

It might have graced a rosy bower,

Instead of hiding there.

Yet there it was content to bloom,

In modest tints arrayed;

And there diffused its sweet perfume,

Within the silent shade.

Then let me to the valley go,

This pretty flower to see;

That I may also learn to grow,

In sweet humility.
