BLT Salad with Basil Mayo Dressing Review!


BLT Salad with Basil Mayo Dressing 
I really liked this salad but the salt on the
 croutons made it entirely too salty.
If I were to make this again, I would skip the 
salt altogether. I loved the croutons, just

Suspended Coffee!

I love this idea!!!





There’s a new movement called SUSPENDED COFFEES. This will warm you better than a coffee in a cold winter day:

"We enter a little coffeehouse with a friend of
 mine and give our order. While we're approaching our table two people come in and they go to the counter - 'Five coffees, please. Two of them for us and three suspended.'

They pay for their order, take the two and leave. I ask my friend:
'What are those 'suspended' coffees ?'

'Wait for it and you will see.'

Some more people enter. Two girls ask for one coffee each, pay and go. The next order was for seven coffees and it was made by three lawyers - three for them and four 'suspended'. While I still wonder what's the deal with those 'suspended' coffees I enjoy the sunny weather and the beautiful view towards the square in front of the café. Suddenly a man dressed in shabby clothes who looks like a beggar comes in through the door and kindly asks

'Do you have a suspended coffee?'

It's simple - people pay in advance for a coffee meant for someone who can not afford a warm beverage. The tradition with the suspended coffees started in Naples, but it has spread all over the world and in some places you can order not only a suspended coffee, but also a sandwich or a whole meal."

Check out Suspended Coffees. Because Everyone Matters!

Enjoying the evening!

It's OK Thursday!


It's OK 
that I didn't do anything in the house yesterday. I have to get this garden planted.

It's Ok
that I had the police come out the other night. I don't like calling them. I figure they have better things to do than come check on me but with all the home invasions

My Garden Survived!

My Garden Survived!

I was sure while I was in Florida I would have lost my garden but for the most part it's still doing fine. 

So this week we will be eating lettuce salads and also spinach salads. Yum!!!


I even ate this radish and wow, was it full of flavor that you just don't get from the ones at the store. 

I have spinach and leaf lettuce ready to eat. Green onions are almost ready.  
Some radishes are ready. Strawberries are coming on. 

Tomatoes are doing well. Basil, Rosemary, Oregano, and Thyme are doing well.



Cauliflower, head lettuce, cabbage, and green onions

Now I need to get some corn, peas, and beans planted. Some more okra, zucchini, and bell peppers.

Also potatoes, garlic and red and yellow onions. 



I guess I had better get busy!!!
