Farmer's Market High Springs

Thursday is Farmer's Market Day in High Springs. Who is that man waiting for the market to open?

There are plants, vegetables and other great delights for sale.
Look at these gourds.

The fruit is just beautiful.

Oh my Shataki mushrooms. We may be a small rural town but that does not stop us from having the finest.

Dinner at the Great Outdoors

Thursday night we dined at The Great Outdoors Restaurant here in High Springs. The meal started off with warm crusty bread and whipped butter. The house salad was delivered on a cold plate with creamy ranch dressing, blue cheese and glazed nuts.The blue plate special for the evening was blackened chicken served with a light Alfredo sauce with fresh sauteed tomatoes and chunks of garlic.

I noticed that we have not had any vampires around for a long time.

I was trying out my new flash and 50 mm lens.

Visiting the Granddaughter

Samantha has a new name for her grandpa. It is Ba Ba. I was sure that it was Babar since I am Queen Celeste. So Big Steve is now Babar.

Long live King Babar!!!

A-door-ables

Recently the American Sewing Guild of Ocala held it's Annual Luncheon. Each member of the organizing committee was asked to make 10 A-door-ables to give as favors for the luncheon.I made 15 so I could keep some. It was hard to decide which ones to keep.These cute little gifts can be used to hold glasses, potpourri, small flowers or just about anything you need to keep handy. The pattern can be purchased from this web site. Adoorables
You could even hide the remote control from your husband. He would never think to look in there. These make lovely gifts for a small thank you.

It was a beautirful day and this year the scarecrows were the best.
