You don’t get what you don’t ask for….

 It’s not uncommon for the youngest fur baby to assume this position.  He lays down rolls over and says without words that A) he is cute and you know it, B) his belly is in the perfect position for rubs, scratches, and/or light pats, and C) he’s confident and secure enough to ask for what he wants. 

I’m not likely to ACTUALLY roll on to my back belly up in front of anyone but perhaps I could take a page from his book and be a little more aggressive about asking for what I want.

You don’t get what you don’t ask for….hmmmm… maybe I can work on this.

What is it?

Yep, it’s more pictures from the park.

What can I say, I don’t get to many places these days.

So I saw this in the park and thought perhaps a child had stuck a pretzel in the ground.

Upon further and closer inspection, this appears to be an organic growth.

Another one about four feet away.

Fungus, perhaps?

The pink sun looked orange in this picture.

Maybe due to the smoke?

 What odd nature things have you noticed today?

Food

So lately I’ve been eating more vegetables and sometimes I’m mixing leftovers together.

What I’m noticing now  is how similar they all look in photos.

This was leftover stir fry (riced cauliflower, shredded carrots, broccoli, corn) on top of a baked potato with a bit of queso in the middle)

Broccoli and carrots on top of baked potato and some queso!

 

Frozen mix of orzo, lentil, peppers, carrots and broccoli.

Sometimes I add a crunchy option of water chestnuts or chow mein noodles.

Simple lunch at work of sweet potato and a lettuce/spinach salad with crunchiest on top

 (sliced almonds, wonton strips and some leftover croutons.)

What’s on your menu?
