Summer Sights




Last night we enjoyed a true summer treat, berry yogurt parfaits. They were really simple to make, just take a large wine glass and put some sliced strawberries and blueberries in the bottom. Spoon about two tablespoons of plain yogurt on them, drizzle some honey on the yogurt and then some chopped walnuts. Add another layer of berries, yogurt, honey and nuts. Yummy!




My husband was taking some spent peonies to the compost pile and saw me looking out the window. He stopped, raised them over his head and shook. It was an amazing sight watching petals rain down on him. This is the way they looked all over the grass. I love pink and green!

Don't you wish you had your camera handy when he did that!

The parfaits look great. This concoction has been a morning breakfast for me for weeks, especially delicious if you use Greek yogurt, or make yogurt cheese with regular yogurt (much cheaper than greek yogurt!).
i took photos of Linden throwing cherry blossoms over her head, really cool looking in person, but my lack of talent with a camera left a lot to be desired in the resulting photos.

Ma, I do wish I'd had a camera...it was like magic!
Susan, I'd love to eat this everyday all year! I've been having some for breakfast too.
