Saimin

I mentioned a Hawaiian favorite soup to Verna a while back and she made this delicious SAIMIN soup treat for dinner today. This version had chunks of beef, white mushrooms, carrots, red bell peppers, bok choi and Asian noodles. Very tasty! Click on the image to enlarge.

The Dog Park

Making Friends

Cabela and Bob meet and greet “Mattie,” a new friend at the dog park today. We had been overdue to take the dogs to one of their favorite places, but now that the weather is quite a bit cooler and our schedule of activities and other business has subsided, we can take them more frequently.

I took this photo of Bob and Cabela getting to know “Mattie,” a little fuzzy dog belonging to another couple visiting the park. Everybody played nice and we enjoyed our dog park visit. Click on the image to enlarge.

New Sheets

New Sheets

The Mama got new sheets today and washed them. When they came out of the dryer, I got to test them out while they cooled off. I like to get under whatever laundry the Mama puts on the bed to cool. She then takes them to fold and put away until the next laundry day. I like that! Click on me to make me big.

First Lemons of The Season

Lemon MargaritasWe started harvesting the first lemons from our “orchard” today. In reality, we had to rescue some of the low hanging fruit in danger of dragging on the ground. We did, however, get one nice ripe lemon to garnish a couple of lemon Margaritas that Verna poured.

If you look closely (click on the image to enlarge), you can see the Margarita glasses are a couple of zany skeleton faces that we recently acquired for the Halloween season.
