Not Reading Much

I read one story from this collection. |

The locale of the story I read, which took place in the mid-19th century. |

Our old shower door was not sliding any more. We had a new one installed. |

Each dish featured different herbs from Carol’s garden.

Love the monarch butterfly mural .... Hope you have a great weekend.
Carol's herbal dinner is a wonderful idea! If anything would ever tempt me to start a garden again, it would be to have a ready supply of herbs. We use NYT recipes often and I had saved both of those you show, but haven't cooked either yet. Trying to do mostly vegetarian (but not all) so that's what I look for on the site.
I miss my porch swing. The butterfly mural is lovely. That "garden art" is gross. The cauliflower meal looks super. I bought a sorrel plant one year. It reminded me of sour lemons. It didn't overwinter well inside.
Hello Mae,
I love the pretty butterfly mural. Your food images all look delicious. The dinner rolls look yummy and I love roasted veggies. I like your new shower door. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
“The Light Eaters” is one of the best books I have read in years.
Would you pass me the basket of dinner rolls? That was my favorite photo! heehee! Hugs! (I would like to read that book...while eating the rolls)
Lots of yummy looking pictures of food. Have a great week!
It looks like a wonderful week Mae. I loved The Light Eaters, and it definitely picks up. Your food looks delicious, and that is one funny garden art style. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Every meal at your house is a banquet. I'd love to try some of the foods that you and your husband prepare, and I'd especially like to sample the breads. I enjoyed The Light Eaters. Reading that book reminded me to look to nature for understanding of and consolation in our world.
Your post made me hungry! I guess it's time for breakfast. The Light Eaters has a beautiful cover.
Did Len make those rolls? They loo great. Oh, the food! And the books look interesting too! LOVING this!
I love a porch swing but I'm always afraid a spider will be lurking somewhere on it so I can't.
I'd like to have a swing like that in my backyard.
I love the mural and the garden art, LOL!
We've bought a few things to start a remodel of our house.
All the food looks yummy!
I'll be looking for your review of the Yamada book.
The art is beautiful and the food looks delicious!
Our swing is in the living room as the balcony is too small - but that way we can use it all year round.
Great art but oh-weee.... you leave me all hungry here!!!!
That mural depicts summer. Very nice!
The butterfly mural is beautiful! Those toes are a weird garden ornament, lol. Don't think I ever even came across sorrel it in the shops. I like roasted peppers and roasted cauliflower. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Mae.
Everything looks great but those dinner rolls...amazing
Have a great week!
Wonderful looking food Mae- and I love the toes in the garden!! such fun..
Your post is like a mini-magazine with all kinds of good ideas. The book looks interesting, and the recipes yummy. Great mural.
Loved the post, Amazing mural, installation, Food looks great. Greetings
Gorgeous mural but the hand cracked me up
I am interested in reading some Japanese crime. How are you finding The Meiji Guillotine Murders? Love your neighbour's garden sculpture, although I wouldn't want it in my own garden.
