welcome to this week's list of likes, summer edition! Brought to you on a heat wave!
I started with another neighborhood lawn ornament... cute red truck with strong sun lighting it
On a walk this week I startled a robin ahead of us,
Robin: what? I don't speak human!! I need to catch a worm so stay back!
Robin: ARE you kidding me? still coming this way
Me: well we don't want to walk in the road Missus
Robin: (hopping forward another 6 feet) Yikes! why are you chasing me?
Me: hop in the grass so we can go by then! We don't plan to hurt you, and we had breakfast already
Robin: FINE! I'll have to fly to the fence, and don't chase me again
Then we come around a corner and see this
we baked last weekend,

| lemon blondies, chocolate chip/oatmeal/pecan cookies, and croissants |
I much prefer our own baked goods to store bought full of corn syrup and soybean oil
created a summer mantel scape with a pretty silk garland, a pathos cutting in water in a vase, some glittery butterflies, and little white lights
I love to paint....
REALLY enjoying this book on audio

do you like picnics? Are you a sit on a blanket on the ground person, or a table outside? Tell us about some picnic that stands out in your memory ( who was there, foods, time and place, etc)
I remember many beach picnics where my food was coated in sand, and a couple as an adult where you put your blanket on the ground, to listen to a concert while you ate.
as a child, we had some birthday parties at Lowry Park in Tampa in the pavilions on concrete picnic tables.
Then there were
I remember a lot of pot luck picnics growing up, such as family reunions, church groups, and always a great variety of food to share.

We loved taking car road trips where we would often grab a lunch to have along the way at roadside tables, with our dog. I like eating outside but roadside picnic tables can be dirty, people being what they are, leaving trash.
I am not one for sitting on the ground now.... but have some fond memories especially sitting under the stars, drinking wine, and listening to an orchestra while having fancy snacks
