Last days in August

At this time we can collect the remnants of flowers.
After they die
some can be dried and
become very decorative
in vases around your house.
The bird feeders are not as busy
like in the summer
when
hungry parents
and
newly hatched babies
came for food
to grow big and strong
and able to do
the difficult task
of migration
to a nice warm
place for the winter.

In the dry days
a spraying fountain
is most welcomed
( is easy to set up)
and give the drink
to the thirsty plants.



The pot garden can be moved
closer to the house
where their beauties
can be admired longer
till
the frost will come.



The nights are cool now
and
in the morning
fog is giving
some artistic view
for the Flag.

NEW LANDSCAPES

These photos were sent
by our
British photographer
ArgoThis is CrichTower in Derbyshire
a neighboring county
to Yorkshire
where Argo lives.
It is a memorial for soldiers of the
Sherwood Foresters regiment
from the WWI
Built 1923.
It looks like a lighthouse and lights up at night but there is no sea nearby.
Built on 1000 feet above sea level
and takes 52 steps to get to the top
These photos are the views from
the Tower
where he made 52 steps
up to the top.



An other wonderful picture
to show a most
charming village
to see
from the Tower.
All photos are Argo@exclusives.

Summer's presents




No need for words about these pictures.


I promised to tell you the next time
how to make a delicious meal
from these already appetizing ingredients.
First take a good size pan
than cut up to inch sizes
these veggies and
place all of them into the pan.
Add a little water
than at high heat
start to cook them.
Add some Canola or
Olive oil and
salt to your taste.
( I use very little salt!!!)
When it boils
turn the heat down to low
and stirring occasionally
let it simmer until
everything is tender.
There should be some fluid
from the tomatoes
use enough of them.
Finally
sprinkle with little sugar
because the tomatoes can be sour.
For me
this is a meal.
:-))))))))))))
But mostly people put in rice
to the veggies
to absorb the fluid.
Also is more of a meal
with some meat
usually is very good with
Frankfurters
cooked
and not grilled
to make them less greasy.

I love on the side
some kind of a bread
mostly biscuits
and lot of fluid in the summer:
juices I always
delude with water.

Enjoy!!!!!!!

about hot days

Lunch on the light side These are ingredients of one of my
favored meal.
Mostly veggies;
no meat
for less calories.
How to make out of these
a delight
tell you later. :)
This is very simple
and
frequently on the menue
Couliflower cooked before.
Than in a small dish
put some olive oil and sprinkle
with breadcrums.
Put the cauliflower
on this mixture
sprinkle with olive oil
on top
also some breadcrums again and finally
comes the cottage cheese
with no fat sour cream.
It goes for few minutes
in toaster oven.
Southern biscuit on side
and apple juice for drink.
Ideal for
a very light meal.



Our prayers were
for
clouds
to come.

Under the heat of the bright hot sun
the grass and other
vegetation
just burned
like a toast. :(



With the help of
the beneficial
big oak trees
the shade saved
lot of lives.
Eventually the rain came,
for some plants
was late, but many came
back to life.
