This is blooming in my front hallway. Gorgeous. I've got a weird plant thing. This is a plant that my grandmother had. I finally got a piece of it from my Mom. I think that it's really cool to get a plant when someone dies (that really does sound weird). I have 3 plants in my house that have come to us when there has been a funeral in the family. Each one of those plants represents that loved one who died. It's like a part of them is still living with me... weird.
I ate this today... please don't tell. I was out and bought it on a whim because I thought it was so small that it just needed to be loved. But guess what? I didn't eat all of it. It wasn't as tasty as my own and I feel like life is too short to eat food just because it's there. It should be relished and enjoyed. Especially if it's a brownie. So I took two bites and then moved on. It did inspire me to make chocolate cake though.
I also ate this today... it's a quesadilla. Just plain cheese. With my own canned green tomato salsa. Bliss.
I've also been eating my beet pickles and damn (!) they're good.
I'm super proud of Kid #1 right now. She has just gotten through to the final round of a nation-wide short story competition. She's going to be published. Wow.
I'm cooking right now and getting a post ready to send out but I just had to fill you in on my life.
