Trying to decide what to have for a late dinner

by

Chris and I went to an afternoon concert today. No it wasn’t a concert in the park … it was in a legion hall. LOL Now that was different.

The bands were really good, but I felt sorry for one of the lead singers. You could tell that he’d had really severe acne as a kid and his cheeks were pock-marked as a result. I always feel bad for people who’s faces are scarred like that when there are so many good treatments available to treat severe acne these days.

Anyway … now we’re going to have a late dinner. I’m trying to decide whether I should cook something or if we should continue to treat ourselves and order something out? Maybe Chinese food? I’ve kind of had a craving for Asian food lately.

What would you do if it was already 9 in the evening? Make dinner or order out?





Pretty Clematis Seed Heads

Some of my Clematis vines are putting out their last few blooms of the season, while others have started to develop beautiful seed heads on the remnants of old flowers. I think I almost like the seed heads as much as I do the flowers!

I can’t remember the name of this clematis at the moment, but most of my clematis vines develop seed heads that look like this one.

The most unusual clematis seed head comes from my hybrid Seiboldiana. It’s large bluish purple flowers turn into seed heads that look like balls of twine!

I just love plants that are beautiful to look at throughout all of their stages of life and growth. Don’t you?

I seriously thought about getting a treadmill today

by

Chris and I were out earlier today doing our regular weekend shopping and while we were in a department store to get Chris a new pair of pants for work, I wandered around until I came across a sale on exercise equiptment.

Good thing our money’s tight right now or else I would have tried talking Chris into letting me buy one of the treadmills that were on sale. Yeah, I know … we have an elliptical machine and I’ve been using it again in the last few weeks, but a treadmill would be a good piece of exercise equiptment to have too. Chris would like it better than the elliptical, I’m sure.

Heck, I’ve even heard of people training their dogs to use the treadmill. That would certainly come in handy in the winter on a day when there was a big snow storm … ’cause I don’t take the dog for long walks through streets and sidewalks covered in un-shoveled snow … it’s just too hard to walk in! Midnight and I could both get a work out on the treadmill on snow days. LOL

Do you have any fitness equiptment in your home? Do you use it or has it become a place to hang your laundry?

Do you grow delphiniums?

I grow a variety of delphiniums in my backyard garden and just recently in my planted front boulevard. The one that I’ve posted below tends to spread … a lot!

Purple Delphinium

It’s very prolific .. almost weed like. Yet it’s a very pretty plant when in bloom. Unfortunately I have to pull out tons of it each spring otherwise my garden would be just this delphinium!

Do you grow any delphiniums?
