Yummy and Yukka

One of Blueman’s specialities is a scallops and angel hair pasta dish. Little scallops are best because they won’t freak out my texture issues.  He doesn’t cook a lot but he comes up with some yummy stuff.

Of course we’re going to have to work on portion sizes!
I took leftovers to lunch after this meal and it was still yummy.

Now for the yukka. 
 I first saw this plant when I went out exploring the neighborhood on my walk one morning.
I rounded the end of a car and holy lizards and snakes Batman!
It was yukka!

Well yucca that is!
For some reason I just love this plant!


Here’s hoping you find something that takes over your heart today!

Finishes...long overdue

It’s been awhile since I finished these, but I figured better a late post than never!

At the beginning of the covid hoo-haw, I began my card writing campaign.  Apparently between that and my journaling, I wrote more than I thought.  I replaced stamps and bought more cards.
What I didn’t expect was this:
I emptied my pen! Finished it clean off!
More often pens dry up that empty. And this was a favorite, too!

While working from home, I emptied my mints and the plastic container is what my chewing gum comes in. The mints had a date on them. Apparently, I noticed after the were gone, it was expected to be empty  sometime in 2018! Whoops! The gum container is quite nice but what to use it for?
I’ll have to think on it. I have two more at work.

But this is my latest crafty finish. Wildfire was the name of the donated yarn. It was fun to work with and you didn’t see the striating colors until you saw it from further than fingertip length.
Thank you to my friend YarnAngelR for letting me have this delightful yarn to play with.

Here’s hoping you enjoy some finishes today!

The elusive.....hard to find....

While shopping today I ran across something that I hadn’t seen in quite a long time.
I managed to get a picture or two before it disappeared.

It’s the most elusive and endangered species...


Yes, it’s toilet paper!  
This is the most I’ve seen in the store at one time in eight weeks!

And look, it’s cousin paper towel!
Rarely photographed in the wild, I’m lucky to have managed the shot.

😉

Here’s hoping you enjoyed your day no matter what wild thing you find!
