a lil'l planting n planning

summer salad planning

my favorite flower in the yard
tomorrow in the light I'll check the label
and tell you exactly what it is

I finished the baby blanket.....
I left off two more blocks because
it was getting too big
some of these came home with me

and some of these

and a few of these

all that flower shopping made us hungry...
this is a special burrito
it has a 34 year history
when MIB took the first bite in 29 years....
he said he could die...
it was the most special of lunches

soule mama shared a recipe for
cilantro n cashew dressing

it tasted better after it had chilled
doubtful it's a do over

later I did a little night photography with my brother
a bright full moon..
my pictures were beyond terrible...
so I window shopped instead

brother on the other hand
shot amazing pictures..
click on spare parts n pics
on the side bar

the weekend included a funeral..
where I reunited with a friend from 21 years ago...

and I planned my own funeral
during the service,
I figured it was as good a time as any...



our daughter celebrated a birthday....
since it was a celebration for me too
becoming a mother with her birth...

I ate quiche

birthday girl had mini assorted cupcakes..

sorry the pic is  a bit blurry..
I hear the old
canon sure shot
calling me back n hanging up the rebel

It's hard to resist a pretty flower (or twelve)

Wow, a burrito with history. Now, when I eat burritos, they repeat on me, but I'm guessing you don't mean that kind of history.

Other than the funeral, it looks like it was a gorgeous weekend?

24 days until June 1 and I get the story.

That blanket is so pretty, love the colours! The pop of brown made it so special!
I've never eaten a burrito before but this one looks yummy!
I'm so intrigued that you're going to grow salad leaves! That's so cool!
Happy Birthday to your daughter!
