Pimiento cheese, two versions

Pimento cheese two versions

This cries out for a recipe, and I promise, it’ll be forthcoming. For now, know that my (very small, statistically speaking) testing group preferred the smoked-hot-paprika-enhanced-version of pimiento cheese (of the two that I offered).

Frizzled by drizzle?

Leaf par excellance

Just where did this day go? Washed downhill by the drizzle? Perhaps….

The Monkees on TV? Again?

Orchid bot garden orangey splayed

We even got some sunshine over at the BotGarden today, although the cloud layer was solid by the time we headed home. We found the most sunshine in our company!

Now vs waiting (blueberry version)

Blueberry bloom at nursery

We got the warm back a bit today. And these are blueberry bush blooms we found on a nursery plant. Compare (in your mind’s eye) to another blueberry plant display we saw in which the plants were about 20 cm tall—and sure to have blooms, oh, in about 4 years.

We stayed hidden from the crowds on VDay, so today I got my sweetie to take me out to lunch. Open til 2, the sign said. But, no, the waitron said, last orders were at 1:50. Long story short, we got in, ordered fast, and, mmmm.

Thanks, James, for letting me tear the Guru away so we could go to lunch. And here’s to the healing process….

Ides of Feb (ish)

Shadow handrail image PiedPk

Not sure why this image appealed to me today; perhaps it was because I spent the day, you could say, working in the shadows.

Roses are traditional

Daffie in dark after freezing

But here, after the freeze, we have one daffodil that’s still standing, that didn’t bow under the cold temps.

And here’s my wine, so happy valentine’s day!

I wish I knew the backstory on this—I mean beyond the obvious….

Going with abstract….

No cake and candles, today, but we did celebrate Someone’s 86th. (No, crabcakes are not cake. Nor are brownies.)

Distracted by “drink…me”

Drink me ya queen

I love eccentric signs in one-of-a-kind businesses in our (greater) neighborhood. As a matter of fact, I was so charmed by this sign, I didn’t even look at what kind of wine it was promoting!

For locals, we found this sign at Ansley Wine Merchants.
