A Day in the Life

 

... sort of like Currently, only different!


Status?

I was just revising our June calendar to accommodate a pop-up appointment.
In a way I'm grateful for a full dance card, but there are days it's plain wearying.


After Tom's lab work we'd plans to visit Lowe's garden center.
Given the threat of more rain, however I detoured to Fat Boy's Ranch.  Seriously, the best smoked meat I've enjoyed in all my years.


My pulled pork salad.
Somehow a slab of ribs and 2 lbs. of brisket also made it home.
Can't help ourselves!

Love how they decorate their not-just-for-Christmas tree to accommodate everything from the SLE Rodeo to patriotic holidays.





Trying something new


I remember asparagus growing wild on the side of the road in the little valley just off the Hill.  My dad would pull the Fairlane off to the side and park while mother filled a brown paper bag with that goodness.
Most likely, I was scrunched down in the back seat, hoping no-one I knew spotted me. (lol)

I'm not holding my breath ours will flourish, but the idea makes me smile. 





(about to start) Reading

I've been hearing good things about Kristen Hannah's The Women.
I hope they're right ..... but must admit, I'm not anxious to reawaken memories of the Viet Nam years. 




Makes me smile

Did you hear?
I saw an interview with Pope Leo's brother who shared that (prior to the papal conclave) he and his brother played Wordle every morning.

Like my first sip of coffee, I so look forward to doing that.
Anyone else?
Do you suppose Pope Leo still makes time to do that?




... and belly laugh, too!

Any Fluffy fans out there?
At first I wasn't so sure Gabriel Iglasias' special was going to be very entertaining ... after all, there are so many nasty, lewd comics out there.  Many of them female!  I'm not so easily offended, but ya.
Nasty.  (Did I say that already?)

Anyway.  I love how his delivery is full of life lessons, cloaked in humor.
An excerpt:  "I'm here to entertain, not to offend."





What's made you laugh recently?
I'd love to hear about it!
