Don't know what to say

so I'll say it with pictures.

The fig tree is leafing out.

As is one of the pecan trees.

Something else is enjoying spring. UGH. I've already been bitten once this year.

Wildflower border between our property and the farmland behind us.

Bull thistle. I've recently found out that they are edible. Best when young. Cook like asparagus.

Plenty of oak tree pollen around here.

Blackberries growing.

Spring has sprung.

Praise God for all he gives.

You all be safe and try not to die of boredom. God bless!

Sunday dinner

Hi Mom. Promised you a picture or two. :-)

I made my version of spring rolls. They are nothing like real spring rolls. Usually I use spring roll wraps to make them; but this time I made the mistake of buying Lumpia wrappers.
I still made the spring rolls, just turn out different.

So when I make them I cook up some hamburger. Youngest said "ground beef". Well, yes. After that was drained, I added a can of bean sprouts and a can of sliced mushrooms.
Looks like this when you start. Almost forgot. Mozzarella and cheddar cheese. Or some mix of cheese.

There is also a mix of corn starch and water to help seal the wrap.

Here it is wrapped up, haha.

And after frying.

You can bake them also, but hubby doesn't like them that way.

So there you have it. Sunday dinner. Takes a while to get it all together; but not long to fry and eat.

You all be safe. God bless. And thank Him for what you have.

Flea Market

Today was a really nice day. So being Saturday we went to the flea market in Livingston, Louisiana. V.Watts is only on the second Saturday of a month. I was glad they didn't give in to the fear of the latest flu.

We saw some friends, got some farm fresh eggs, hubby found a nice pair of headphones for his computer and I got a scarf for my neck when I forget to put on the darn sunscreen.

Also took a few pictures.

A really nice truck.

I love Wisteria.

Only took a couple pictures of the rest of the market. Oops.

And one of the lowest Diesel price we found. It's about 40 cents a gallon more here in central Louisiana.

We usually go to a second flea market, but it closed because of the flu. Boo! The little cafe there makes some really great chicken wings.

Hope you all are having a blessed weekend, too. Be safe and God bless. ♥

Happy Birthday to middle son.

Took him for crawfish, of course. :)

And we brought home some bread pudding with chocolate caramel sauce. :)

And yes, it was all as good as it looked. :)

You all be safe out there. People are getting more crazy, if that is possible.

We will take precautions; but we are going to the flea market this weekend. Supposed to be 81 and partly cloudy. We'll see if heat and humidity kill this new flu like it does most all flues.

God bless!

Sunday Grill

This is what we had, Mom.

Boiled corn on the cob. Grilled potatoes, onions and mushrooms. And riblets, or short ribs.

Great day for grilling. Sunny, breezy, 68 degrees.

You all be safe. God bless. ♥
