I am blessed to have a pretty peaceful home and the most action my cast iron has seen is cornbread and rue.

MMMMmmmmm.....

And biscuits made from scratch, and tomato gravy.....

it's almost seven a.m. and I am now starving.

What's that supposed to mean?
And in BOLDno less.
Get down from that tree and make Lotus Blossom a nice Sunday breakfast in bed.

Ah the age old battle of the sexes with such hilarity, trying to reach parity of polarity, but no vulgarity and a hint of clarity resolving the disparity and I can't find a way to fit in charity

Charity begins with clarity to resolve polarity without disparity to permit hilarity and vulgarity with parity ...

Hilarity (Hillary) is maintained by disparity, caused by polarity without charity, with vulgarity triumphing over clarity.

Before we start a gender war ... can I request a sex change operation please???

ulli! One more for our side! (handing Calz a purple atomizer ...) (adjusting Calz's shoulder pads, not too sure about those, a bit dated) (and (closing eyes briefly) those ah parachute pants ...) (Oh Calz, not sequins on a sweatshirt!) (oh well, she'll figure it out eventually)

OK, so it's all good again.

And I prefer to have a Purple Lama in the Village
to having everything covered with Purple Powder,
don't you agree, Sierra and Junebug?

I do, I do indeed ulli, while I love purple, I think we need to keep PL in one piece so we can keep a beady eye on him.

Agreed! ...

Oh, this is brilliant!
Which one of you ladies wants to join me perform the operation?

You look very relaxed.
Is it because it gives you an excuse not to work?

You got it! Can't do a damn thing until someone cuts me sown from here. As union leader I must inform you that no man is lifting a finger to build another thing until a general amnesty is declared and the unilateral military action you have brought to the males of this village is brought to a halt. Otherwise I shall just have to hang here spouting off at the mouth all day, which as a lazy Gemini you can say I was made for it. We can not continue under the threat of violence.

[Sierra]

Youse guys are making my mouth water ...

Tomato gravy recipe please lotusblossom!
Watermelon, feta cheese, chili and mint salad recipe please ViralSpiral!

Sierra has just placed a bucket of iced water under your head...
Junebug has her hand on the crank handle....

See what men have taught us women do?

But wait ... we all *know* that Libra cannot make up their mind.

Try that and multiply by 5.

Hmmmmmm.

Could go to the highest bidder or else do the double agent ninja thing???

Have to admit I would look good in purple ...

Ingredients

1 watermelon (size dependent on portions needed)
1 sweet or red onion
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
6 whole mint sprigs
3 or 4 small, fresh chilies

Directions

Cut the flesh from the melon and cut into bite size pieces, removing and discarding the seeds, and set aside. Peel and slice the onion into rings.

In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, salt, pepper, and whisk until salt is dissolved. Slowly whisk in the olive oil, a few drops at a time. Add in the chopped mint, taste, and adjust seasonings.

In a large bowl, combine the melon, onion, and feta. Pour the dressing over the melon mixture and toss gently until everything is coated and evenly mixed. Garnish with mint sprigs.

et voila!!


VVVVVV Yummy!


Can add anything you like:- pine nuts, olives, parsely (ptuiiii!), some lemon juice...

Here and now...
Landlady took dogs for walk without me... neighbor went instead.
Fans buzzing overhead. Fridge less noisy than the one in Costa Rica. But so are the birds, in fact- where are the birds?
More crickets than birds. I'm sure that has something to do with cricket being the national sport.
My right knee is acting up again.
It needs to kneel more-- I could hear someone thinking.
Ok, ok!! Nuff of that!

Ah ... I see we have another "shape shifting changling" in our midst.

Note to self ... delete that *way cool* ninja zebra image I was waiting for the right moment to spring ...

Even though he claims he is having second thoughts, I know his/her mind is made up.
Who wouldn't want to join us now that the universe is on our side?

Oooooh ... good point.

Here I go again ...

But we have to find a space far enough from Sierra who is busy with PL, so as to keep the operating area sterile.
PL is letting his v*mit hit the fan and it's sending half digested biscuits and tomato gravy all over the Village...

Well ... if I could keep my eyes shut the whole time ... I'm feeling a bit grossed out by the tomato gravy and biscuits flying everywhere.
