Thursday Blog Attempt, Part II

Well, Gee Dee. 
I was just writing my little old heart out here with pictures and a video and everything, talking about a book and a series on Hulu and the amorality of Donny Dementia Boy and of course field peas, 


when I accidentally deleted every damn bit of it and I can't find any way to recover it. 

Oh well. 
Here's the video which is now floating somewhere around in the ether. 



That was a rainstorm we had here this afternoon with thunder included. It is quite short. The fact that I managed to get the thunder in there is fairly amazing. 

What else? I am obviously not going to talk about DT.

How about this?


Know what it is?
I'll tell you. It's a mosquito, perched on the top of my MacBook, studying me closely to see which part of my body or face she wants to land on, inject itchy stuff into, and suck my blood out of. 
This happens at least three times a day, a mosquito using my laptop for an observational tower. 

And here's a another picture. 


Carrots from the garden. I cut them up to use as a platform for the chicken I am roasting. 



Like that. 


Volunteer zinnia in the kitchen garden. 

Hank reports all is good down in Eastpoint. Here are two pictures from last night.


Hank's most requested birthday meal is shrimp salad and here we have it in a buffet form. All the ingredients and you get to pick the ones you want. 
I feel certain that Taylor had a lot to do with that. She is a real, true chef, y'all. 

And here's Hank, ready to enjoy. I am so glad to see that the goop has been made and looks just right. 

Tomorrow the Rolling Stones are releasing their thirty-third studio album and I have been loving the pre-release interviews. One can't help but think that this really could be the last one and yet, they all seem as excited about this one as if it were their first. They came together in a studio, they played songs together that Mick and Keith wrote, and they are happy. 

I have to go to town tomorrow. I may just have to see if I can find it. I want the vinyl, of course. 
For an interview Keith did on The Today Show go here. 
I wish I could embed it but I can't figure it out. 
Oh, what beautiful faces those old boys have, every crevice a testimony to the power of their love of the music they make. 
I think Keith may still be wearing eye-liner. 
Be still my old heart.

Love...Ms. Moon

P.S. I just clicked the link to the rain video and it sucks. It did not look like that on my phone. I wish I could fix it but I can't. The audio is the best part anyway.

  1. I love the rain video – it took me back to Florida thunderstorms! actually that was a pretty tame one - no wind! Your little peas will love it. That shrimp salad looks lovely too.
