~Ooops!~

OOOPS~!~..I was looking at that Hibiscus tree and trying to get

a good photo of it and just at that time Penny pulled in and I got

her as she was getting here this morning :-) I showed it to her

and she didn't even know I had taken it..as you see she is clutching

her coffee and looking down.. I asked her about the tree and why

hadnt she told me it was blooming.. On this side of it growing

is another tree that is hiding the blooms from my view.. She says,

"I just didn't pay attention I go that way every time and just don't

notice". :-) we laughed.. any closer to that tree and it would have

slapped her and she then would have noticed its pretty flowers hey?
My boy came by last nite for a little while and we were discussing

Pennys van and the tranny.he thinks the whole thing is bad..She

still is not driving it today and a friend of hers, Eddie, is supposedly

going to 'try' to find the time to work on it and try to get it running..

She has his truck as you can see, a nice Dodge Ram. Penny was out
there to water, its been so hot, everything needed a drink, If that guy

across the street over there gets any more cars the city I bet will

get on to him about it..Hes got cars out in the street and you see

there 3 of them plus 2 trucks that arent there..and a little red car.

They are car poor over there.. Donnie was telling me he may know

of a wheel chair van that a quadriplegic had and it may be up for

sale.. hes going to find out for me.. That sure would be nice..You

see the nice garage I have for a vehicle.. And even if it doesn't have

hand controls so I can drive it.. be nice for if and when I do have

company and even for Penny and I to go places we could use it.. I
hope Donnie can find out some good news about it.. that would be

so great.. and to only have just basic insurance it shouldn't be that

expensive to operate..well gas yes, right now, but maybe in my life

time the price of gas will come back down to normal again..be nice

that's for sure...

I want to put it in writing how much I am enjoying my saffron bread..

I just slightly nuke it so its just a tad warm..some butter on it..and I

tell you..well not too many things better than that.. It brings back

so many memories..from the smell of it..remembering all the times

I smelled the saffron buns that my mother made, to the wonderful

taste of it.. I can close my eyes while I taste it and transport myself

all the way back to when I would sneak a bun out of the bread drawer,

thinking my mom wouldn't miss just ONE.. well if she was like I am

now.. I knew where every crumb of it is.. She knew how much I loved

those things..She kept them made for me..and the brownies for

David...along with the home made bread...of course.. The only one

thing missing but will be put in next time is the currants.. Theyre like

raisens but smaller and I like them better than raisens..The saffron

buns were passed down from my grandmother to my mom to me..

the recipe that is :-)

David, on the other hand ..my last ex, well, we were headed home one

evening in our truck.. I was of course eating one of the saffron buns

my mom had given me to take home.. was summer, windows were

down on the truck.. I was nice and offered to give David a taste, not

a lot they were my buns..I didn't like sharing them, they were very

valuable to me :-) well I broke off a nice size bite..not huge, but

David had a big mouth so..big bites worked ..no no just kidding..

:-) I had to say that ..anyway... he opened his mouth, closed it and

the next thing I knew he was puking out the window!!! I was SO
MAD! how dare he spit it out ! He said "that was AWFUL!" I

remember one time he shoved a piece of cheese in my mouth

that was so rank I almost passed out but I still ate it.. and he spit

that saffron out.. Some people, David obviously one of them, do

NOT like saffron.. But to me..well its heavenly..and now I know I.

well WE can make it..yes.. Im very pleased...

Tomorrow is a dear dear friends 50th birthday, dear Rob, in

Sweden, he leaves those wonderfully sweet comments on

here for me.. He is having a huge party with lots of family and

friends..They have already started to gather to decorate and

to cook some wonderful food I bet.. I plan to make a video clip

for him for his birthday I just hope he likes it, be a nice gift I hope.

Wont be anything MAJOR Drastic kind of video ..just me,

this GORGEOUS WEEBLE... I wonder if the weeble makers take

offense that I refer to my self as one.?.oh well..too bad if they do,,

that's what I feel like when I fall over and hit my face on the bed

or fall over cuz im bottom heavy I do bounce right back up like

one tho :-) I laugh every time I do that thanking God NO ONE can

see me do that stupid stuff ..

Well I hope the stupid stuff is done for today and I am gonna go

and find a snack and watch TV- I HOPE.. I say that every night and

I try to remember the next morning what I watched.. well you know

what I remember yes? right.. NOTHING! :-) I do remember my

way to the kitchen tho..and of course my snack is some saffron

bread..MMM "Nitey Nite"

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya and thanks.. :-)

ALways, Lois ****
