They sure do. I know many use pickle juice to marinate chicken and other things. Hmmm.

So when I am out and about I will encounter self check out except for the garden shop in Lowe's. I resist self checkout. If I am going to do their job I want a discount or at least a free bag.

Haven't made pizza in too long. Making the dough today so it rises in the fridge for at least 2 days. Gives the crust more flavor. Going to cook it outside of course. Love my little pizza oven. Think it's going to be peppers and onions on top with some garlic scapes from EM.

It is my no gym rebound day. That just means I will load up on to-dos instead. Does that list ever really end? Assembling more donations. My closets have a lot of those wire shelves so less clothes storage than it looks. But still need to winnow.

Shade cloth deployed. Good to see that the winds didn't effect it yesterday. Wish me luck!
Going to Lowe's to get pretties for my pots. Still behind on getting my yard in shape. Glad to finally be really back out and about. I am happy with my progress.

Thank you for honoring your friend and her husband. No public servant should fear for their lives or that of their families.

Hey you DM. What a delight to hear from you. Where did you move to?
Glad you follow the Roll Call. We have others who participate and don't like in NM. Just good people.

Oh I agree, Have lived near the beach on both coasts. Do I ever miss fresh seafood. Fish tacos should NOT be made with Gorton's frozen fish fillets.

Aha. I too hate when an appointment is late.
And halibut is not cheap.

So did NPR but it was too long to post.

I'm from the Jersey shore and have seen him often. Even to just show up to jam at a bar. So your 1 concert isn't the be all and end all. But you continue to believe what you want to. I'll will believe what he has said in numerous concerts. And especially in his live album from this early years.

Karen. At least they text.
It is rough in this heat. I was just outside to put up the shade cloth. Now covered in sweat.
I watered early before the winds kick up.
Delish. I so miss fresh fish. Was eyeing salmon at Sam's but it's too much for me so I put it off.

Sure is. Your garden is a work of art and conservation.

I love your irrigation set up. Water is life especially in NM.

Yay tacos. Boo power outages. Aren't we all glad we are not roofers today?
Can't wait to see them.
I thought of you when I saw this on FB today. It is kind of a cool idea.

Yes, "Born in the U.S.A." by Bruce Springsteen is widely considered a protest song, despite its common misinterpretation as a patriotic anthem. The song addresses the struggles of a Vietnam War veteran and critiques the way the nation treated returning soldiers.

Good to hear all is well with you all again. 💙
Sleep is imperative after something like that.
Seminar? Nosy minds want to know more.
And if you are making it, of course better than just good.

Mornin' to you both. This heat does make me loopy so I understand.
Ugh. Hope everything arrived in good shape.

Good morn, John. Lucky you. Amazing how many different climates we have in the US.
So lovely. Love the cacti showing off. I honestly didn't expect that when I moved here. So many plants I didn't understand. Ocotillo still amaze me.

Motherhood has its costs. But how darn cute is that little one?

Sure is. When I am trekking out there always surprised at how most folks don't even know it's there. Maybe that is better for the birds.

I have had less so far too. ~sighs But glad for the duck pond not to far from my house. That area is still lush.

Do you have one of those little alcohol fire pits? I love sitting out there with just its light. Perfect for these night. I do love fire but only where it should be safely.

I believe getting my body rehydrated with water first thing is good for me. But not so good for my posts. 😁

I don't blame you. I also notice when I refill the hummer feeders with cold water they seem to really prefer it. In this heat have to change more often so it's fresh.
