Mushy bananas
don't add to granola, but -
      make delicious bread!

"So how hot is it?"

Car says one hundred and two -

       "No, really, how hot?"

 

Really, it was 102 for a little while!

Wonderful God,
it has been a good day.
The gateways of morning and now evening
have shone with golden sunlight
and sung with windy joy.
You have watered the earth twice -
once with gentleness, once with hail!
The pastures of the wilderness overflow;
the hills gird themselves with joy;
the meadows clothe themselves with flocks;
the valleys deck themselves with grain;
they shout and sing together for joy.
There has been good food to eat
and someone to share it with.
It has been a good day.
I know that in all of this I am blessed by you.
Thank you.

 Puppy catching ball,
elf in the wind, ski-jumper -
     cloud shapes passing by.

(Wish I had taken pictures to show)

SPAM-ku....
One last piece of SPAM.
Eggs? Salad? Pasta? Sandwich?
        What to do? What to.....

So that wraps up SPAM week for another year, boys and girls. Hope you enjoyed it - the week and the SPAM!  And did you know there is Maple SPAM?

 After two weeks it's

deer one, potatoes zero -

        the garden at camp. 

We need a fence - or more chicken wire!  I don't under3stand why there is this whole field of leaves and the deer eat the potato plants!

 

SPAM-ku - 

For Friday fish fry -

Cajun Panko grilled salmon.

       But tomorrow - SPAM! 

(Cajun Panko grilled SPAM?  Maybe.)

A walk by the lake,

an evening reading a book -

      both are calling me.

 

And a SPAM-ku for today-

Pizza crust with sauce, 

onions, peppers, olives, cheese -

       SPAM sizzling on top!

 Brilliant red sunset

fades to pink, to grey, to black

      as time goes by - night!

 

And SPAM-ku for the day -

   SPAM and Colby cubes,

   bar-b-que sauce, and toothpicks -

        laid out on Limoges. 

 

Mushy bananas don't add to granola, but -       make delicious bread!
