Minnows, Peppers, Uniform of the Day, Etc.




1 & 2) I have a feeling that masks and gloves will be part of my summer wear--politicians are rushing to fast to 'open' cities. Really, as much as I want to return to going to the theatre am I ready to sit and mingle with 1,500 people, deal with valet parking, waiting for the car in a small space, etc., I don't think I will be rushing to see "The Donna Summer Musical"!


3) I have all of a sudden become a night time tea drinker. Always 1 bag of Chamomile and 1 bag of a mint herbal tea plus a sweet 'n low.


4) Was just getting some sun on the canal walk and saw a flash if 'silver' go by--quickly pulled out my camera, took a shot and when I got upstairs I saw I had taken a picture of a school of minnows!


5 & 6) Talking about Mother Nature it looks like she came through again! I grew this pepper plant from a seed of a pepper I had bought for a salad and every month for over a year I get ONE pepper--no more, no less--one pepper a month!


7) About 2 months ago I took a seed from another pepper and recently it showed about a dozen blooms. Maybe I will get more than one pepper from this group?!?


8, 9 & 10) Looks so beautiful out the window BUT there is a wicked 20-minute storm going on a heavy downpour being blown around by 30-40 winds and the trees looking fierce. 10 minutes it was as if nothing happened. We need rain as we are in a drought but then the hurricane season is coming along!


11 & 12) One of the many unsung heroes! He is delivering free boxes of food to old folks. Each box contains 7 breakfasts (oatmeal, sausage, egg and a fruit cup) and 7 (frozen) dinners and a smile.

Is the one-a-month pepper a bell pepper, or some hot kind?

A bell pepper!

I planted some pepper seeds in case the local greenhouse where I usually get my plants isn't doing it this year. Every hear he says he's done but does it again anyway--just like I do. I'll still need tomato plants but I think even Walmart has'em.
