I realize it’s not morning any more, but what a lovely one it was! I didn’t really want it to end. Mostly because it was just really nice outside this morning. The kind of morning where you just hang out outside on the patio with a book and a big mug of coffee. And that’s exactly what I did!!
mmmmmm…..coffee!!!
I can and sometimes do drink my coffee black, but I’m a creamer kind of girl at heart. It just gives it a great smooth taste and I just heart it! Here’s what I’m using at the moment- LOVE this stuff!!!
And breakfast!
Whole wheat blueberry banana muffin! It’s a recipe I’ve been using for quite a while and I tried to Vegan-ize it. It just needs another tweak and I’ll share the recipe! And it tastes even better with a bit of Earth Balance- yum!
And can’t forget a good book! I’m a chronic re-reader- I’ll admit it now. I LOVE to read, but not really the “good” stuff- I like fun stuff, especially vampire stuff!! I think I’ve read the Twilight Series about 10 times. The Harry Potter books even more than that(I realize that’s not about vampires, but you know what I mean). And this is my third time through the Sookie Stackhouse series. The only book I’ve read more than the Twilight’s is A Wrinkle In Time. I’ve read that probably a hundred times over the years! It’s always been my favorite book ever since I was a wee lassie! Though The Secret Garden and Little Women are right up there (although those ARE considered the ‘good” stuff, LOL). Ahh, the good ole days! I am a speed reader- I seriously DEVOUR books. I can read read read all the live long day! Oh how I love to read!!
Anyway, this is what I read this morning. Love that Sookie Stackhouse! I’ve already finished it and I’m looking for something else- maybe I’ll re-read A Wrinkle in Time again! 🙂
After that I did my discussion for my business class and took my quiz (96- woot!!). Then I played around in my little garden. Here’s the latest harvest…
A New Mexico Green Chile and a handful of yellow pear tomatoes!
And here’s how my garden’s looking…
Basil and Rosemary
Bell peppers (yellow I think)
Hello little cucumber!!
Yellow Straightneck squash
Okra!
Beefsteak tomato
A wee little watermelon! Isn’t it cute?! (I don’t really have any place for my watermelon vine to go since it’s hanging out in a pot, so it’s just kind of curled around the pot, LOL!)
Zucchini time!
And my yellow pear tomatoes.
Looking good huh? This little garden has been a bigger success than I thought it would be- I’m planning an even bigger one for next spring! And thinking about what I want to do in the fall- maybe broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and some lettuce.
Now I’m going to make some cookies! I’m Vegan-izing one of my mama’s old cookie recipes!! Ranger Cookies- mmmmmm!!!!!! I may or may not post it. I may keep it secret- every gal needs a few secret cookie recipes right?! 😀
Later Alligators!
