Scalloping Away

Kind of boring repetitions, but I'm trudging through them.

Office Fish!

Andreas decided we needed fish in our offices because he bought these neat gravity cleaning betta tanks on Kickstarter.  We found a place to buy bettas here and chose our fish.  The more blue one is mine and now installed in my office.  His name is B Blue, and everyone in the office likes him.  The other is as yet unnamed and still at the house.  Andreas needs to clean off his desk to make room for him.... anyway, pretty and social fish.

I Miss Bluebonnets

I think I worked on this as an extra project last week because I miss bluebonnets.  It got quite a bit farther along!

Dried Tomatoes

Eco Valley has provided us with a -lot- of heirloom cherry tomatoes this year.  I've been drying the surplus so they keep longer.  A little olive oil, a little basil, and a little oregano make them wondrous.

Flip Flopped

Flipflops are done and the A's nearly there, too.  Over the halfway hump!  Good thing, too, as I want to have this done before December.

Just Plummy

Every week during the summer we get a bag full of fruit and veg from Eco Valley.  A couple of weeks ago, part of the bag was plums.  I made this delicious plum clafouti with them!  I also froze some for the winter.

Morning Glories

 We have volunteer morning glories in our garden.  I made Andreas wake up in the morning andtake picture of them.  They really are this blue....
