I know this is late, but I’ve been running all day. This is one of my favorite meals….avocado toast. I’ve been loving rye bread lately. And I top it with Trader Joe’s Everything but the Bagel seasoning. Delish!
I’ve had a busy day, and just got back from choir practice. Gotta keep those pipes in tune!

Memorial Day 2019
I tried to get a good photo. A few years ago, when people were stealing copper wiring from air conditioning systems, someone thought it waa a good idea to steal the brass vases off headstones. We came to visit my mother’s grave and found the stone literally cracked in half. It looked as though someone had tried to yank the vase out of it with a truck. The tracks were still very visible, as it dug into the soft soil.
I don’t know how they fixed it, but this is what it looks like today. As you can see, my mother served as a U S Army nurse during WWII. In fact, that’s how my parents met, as she was his nurse upon his return from his harrowing experience as a POW of the Japanese.
Although Memorial Day is for soldiers who have died in battle, I still honor my mother, as she died in her battle against cancer.
I would say more about my father, as well, but I want to wait until I get a photo of his grave. He’s buried in Arlington National Cemetery. Maybe I’ll write about him on Veterans Day…

The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.

We made Colcannon for dinner using both green and purple cabbage, and fingerling potatoes, including purple potatoes. Delicious and full of antioxidants!

Growing up in Florida, I’ve never been afraid of them, but have always given them a wide berth.
There’s a reason for these signs. There are alligators in every waterway in the state. And a hefty fine if you get caught feeding them.
I took this last week while standing in my backyard. Looks harmless enough, but I wouldn’t want to be swimming in this pond!

I make a decree, That in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel: for he is the living God, and steadfast for ever, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion shall be even unto the end.
He delivereth and rescueth, and he worketh signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.
Daniel 6:26-27

Breakfast was my usual potatoes, bok choy and vegan cheese sauce, with no salt, no oil, no sugar. Extremely healthy.
This is my burrito filling for dinner. Zucchini, yellow squash, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, brown and wild rice and black beans. Rolled it up in a tortilla and topped with enchilada sauce and served it along side lettuce. Delicious! Hubby even had two!
And my steps as of 4 pm. I’m still moving!
