We are loaded with fresh produce from the Farmer's Market. We got our first Honeybell oranges of the season, the sweetest oranges in the world. Made some lemon ice the other day with lemons from our neighbor's tree for iced tea and water. So easy to make these little ice cubes with lemon juice!
Aunt Jean is doing well and has started a watercolor drawing. We had lunch and enjoyed seeing her. She bought some fresh shrimp (which was in the ocean yesterday) at the Farmer's Market.
In sad news my wonderful poinsettias which I planted last year at this time, and which were doing so very well, died in the hard freeze night before last. I feel so bad since I should have covered them but I am not used to doing that task and just did not heed the weather forecasts. Oh well, perhaps they will come back?
Florida weather is back to normal and it will be a balmy 75 to 80 this weekend! Great tricycle weather! We'll also be talking with my cousin in the UK tomorrow! They are not coming to Florida this month as it turns out, but going instead to the Red Sea!
All for now!
Love,
Peggy
Hi Peggy, Wow, you have lots of fun new posts! :) I have to catch up on your blog . . . will write more soon. So glad that Aunt Jean is visiting you, too. I've been thinking about you--chemo begins Monday, right? I'm sure you are not looking forward to it but I'm really glad you have been staying busy and having lots of adventures. Just been busy catching up on everything now that the holidays are finally over! Hope all is well and I'm looking forward to reading about your trip and looking at all of your photos! Hi to Patrick and the doggies! :) Michelle
