gulf shrimp

  

                                              Never pass up an opportunity to buy fresh gulf 

fish from a vendor on the side of the road.

berries

 We picked strawberries yesterday...

along with a thousand other people I think.

This morning I put most of them in the freezer 

and then made myself a pint of strawberry preserves.

 It's also blue bonnet season here in Texas.

Slow days call for embroidering a fun flour sack towel

and knitting a dish rag.

Texas

 We made it to Texas and are enjoying the good life.

The first thing on my list was fresh fruit and vegetables.

I am going to learn how to make some killer grilled vegetables before leaving here.

see you at the sea

 We will finally be headed south for the winter?

no...make that spring tomorrow.

With the second dose of Moderna in our arms we are breaking free.

She said two weeks and we can wear a mask or not.

I can't wait to get to the seashore!

March

...and just that fast it's the end of March.

Beauty and the Beast

 This grandpa and grandma were left speechless 

and I have to admit a little teary eyed 

by the musical our granddaughter
appeared in last night.

I'm wondering how seventh and eighth graders could put on such a wonderful performance...

not one slip-up was detected by my over critical eyes.

(Keep in mind here that all four of my granddaughters are perfect in every way.)

There was an hour and a half of singing and dancing

and scene changes among the 32 cast members and 31 production crew.

I wish I could watch all three performances.

Way to go kids!

I think it is amazing when kids devote themselves to the arts and sports.
