Peach Salad

This easy summer salad is traditionally made with tomatoes, and I love it. However; while peaches are in season, I highly recommend this version......
Serve with crusty bread, pork tenderloin, or fish - it's not a picky salad.....
Fresh mozzarella, basil, and peaches topped with some good olive oil and balsamic vinegar....
 easy, peasy for Tuesday Night Supper Club

Grapes and Furry Faces

A quick "Hey There!" this Summer Sunday with The Tablescaper I'm running late, as usual....


 Miss Tula is one of my favorite things this summer. Around here puppies are usually for other families - but this little frisky fur ball is mine :-) 

A favorite way to spend a weekend afternoon is to take a drive in the old mustang and visit local wineries....
 

Did I mention puppies?
Have a fabulous Sunday, thank you for visiting.

Rooster Party, Whoo Hoo!

Billie and Bob were so excited to hear about their family reunion, blog style, I had to speak firmly to get them to hold still. One needs to be properly adorned to attend a rooster party - just ask Miss Janice.....
 Following the 2009 Rooster Party, I commissioned a rooster painting. The artist, Cindy Dupon, delivered this wonderful fellow to me in February - I've been waiting for the Rooster Party to introduce him....
 This adorable Rooster Mom (hen) plate was a birthday gift from my friend Joan of Applejack Lane.....
 Billy, Bob, and I thank you for stopping by - we're headed over to Bella Vista for a little rooster browsing

Rooster Week

The Roosters are having their day on Friday, today is a family affair.....
We had Flamiche on Tuesday, served on the porch - it was a fowl day all around......

Ralph Lauren provided the place mats and napkins, TJ Maxx was the source for everything else.....




Thank you for the visit, I'm joining Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for Tablescape Thursday. Next the Rooster Party at Bella Vista......

Turtle Time

We had a visitor in the driveway Sunday morning, he was very tolerant of me snapping his picture. Following our brief encounter, away he went.....




Next week I may go crazy and look for something above ground level....

Thank you for joining me at the Outdoor Wednesday party at A Southern Daydreamer
