CeleBEARtion, Flowers, Calendar, & Cactus

I'VE FOUND AND POSTED AN ELECTRONIC WEB BASED CALENDAR. YOU CAN ACCESS OUR CALENDAR FROM OUR WEB PAGE, OR CLICK ON THE LINK IN THE FAR LEFT COLUMN ON THE BLOG. YOU CAN CLICK AHEAD ON THE MONTHS TO SEE OUR UPCOMING PLANS. CAN'T WAIT FOR SEPTEMBER TO GET HERE !!!
This blog is a collaboration of Rex and me so here goes.. We have a new web page, it is called "CeleBEARtion" and we would like everyone to look at it and we love feedback. We have 8 of the 50 bears posted. This is a project sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce, and after they are displayed this summer they will be auctioned off and the proceeds will be donated to various charities. They are a colorful and interesting addition to the local landscape.


I got up early and was at the Farmer's Market at 8AM. One of my purchases was the beautiful bouquet of flowers pictured below. (Rex just shared with me his purpose of flowers in the title..I am suppose to let everyone know he got up and got them for me......ya right!!) That must have something to do with the mischievous mood he selected for the day.


As I look back at the page title, I guess I don't have to explain the calendar..Rex did a great job with that!!


Oh the next title component is cactus..that will actually have to wait for a few minutes. I am returning to the Farmer's Market...I got fresh produce to make fresh salsa, which will be served with our fajita supper. I love a good Farmer's Market and the Lake Tahoe one is great!! Ok ..I bought cactus paddles..fortunately the vendor had a recipe and that is what I made and it is OK, but I will not be buying any more and needless to say Rex will not even try it!!Cactus has a syrup type of stuff like okra...yuck! But I will eat what I made..it is ok with the peppers, tomatoes, and onion I mixed with it.


Since there wasn't any limes at the market and I need some for my salsa, I had to stop at the grocery store. I bought some mushrooms and we had stuffed mushrooms as appetizers for our cocktail hour. (We rarely got to the bars this summer as we are saving money for our Wisconsin trip!)
