Liebster Award

I was surprised to receive an award!  Thank-you Muffy!

My First Blog Award

My First Blog Award

I thought at first that I was going to be treated to a lobster dinner, but no...
Liebster is a German word that translates to; dearest, beloved or in this case favorite.    The idea of the Liebster Award is to give it to an up and coming blog with fewer than 200 followers.  – in order to create new connections, and bring attention to their wonderful blogs. 
When  you win the award there a few details that need to be attended to:
  1. Thank the Liebster Blog Award presenter on your blog
  2. Link back to the blogger who presented you the award.
  3.  Copy and paste the Liebster Blog Award on your blog.
  4.   Present the award to 5 bloggers who have a following 200 or less, who you feel deserve it.
  5.   Let them know they have been chosen by leaving a comment on their blog.
I usually avoid things that require sending on to others, but I like the idea of sharing favorite blogs so I have picked a few that I  enjoy.  Of course, any of the blogs on my list are worth visiting, but, if you have not already,  give these a try:

Dani at http://oklhdan-musingsamiddleagedwoman.blogspot.com/ (for getting perspective on your problems and a great sense of humor).

Barb at barbs-this-and-that.blogspot.com (like drinking a cup of tea on the front porch)

Jennifer at mymuskoka.blogspot.com (lots of nature and two great cats)

Mark at manofwow.blogspot.com (because you are bound to learn something new and interesting)

Bobby at bobbydobbybloggy.blogspot.com (because how can you go wrong with a blog name like that)

It's TIme

 It's been a while since I have posted anything and even my reading your posts is falling by the wayside. I am in Florida now. I have a yard where little attention was spent on landscaping for the past years so I am slowly and (somewhat) methodically addressing that. I also volunteer to work at the pollinator garden and the edible garden I helped install at the UU grounds and I took over the volunteer job of cleaning out the overgrown community garden by my neighborhood mailboxes. The neighbor who was doing that got sick and could no longer attend to it. It's a bigger job than I'd thought at first -- not only overgrown with weeds, but the plants that are wanted there are in life and death competition for each others' spaces. And two walks a day, morning and evening, so Levi can keep up with addiction to canine social media and a daily rousing came of stick or ball midday take up another chunk of my time. I have a weekly meditation group that I co-facilitate, and my own ...

Life Goes On

There is nothing like a visit from the grand children to remind one that life goes on.  I spent Friday night at my daughter's and then brought the kids back home with me.  I did not get to see so much of them this past summer and it was a birthday gift to my daughter (who just turned 40!) to have a couple of days to herself. She probably spent them in her son's room playing Lego StarWars.  Dane tried to teach me how to play this video game--a hopeless task if ever there was one.  "Concentrate, Grandma!  You have to concentrate!"  I do have a hard time with sustained concentration lately, but in this case I had no clue what it was that needed concentration.  He finally took the controls away from me (thank-you!). It's amazing how long he can amuse himself at my house being out side on a scooter or helping me in the yard, especially if it involves a hose.  Inside, they both sit and draw or craft for hours.  Just before bed, Dane did say, "N...

Eggplant

Mike and I considered ourselves soul mates, but we definitely were not culinary mates.  Mike liked what he liked and disliked what he disliked and he never changed his mind about things like that.  He did not eat mayonnaise.  He did not eat tomato sauce.  He did not eat cooked vegetables except for corn, peas and green beans.  He did not eat onions cooked or otherwise.  He did not eat casseroles ever since they were a combination of things he didn't eat anyway. I did not like mushrooms as a kid and eggplant just made me gag, but my tastes changed,  Foods I found disgusting as a child are now among my favorites--mushrooms, eggplant, avocados, asparagus, eggs, spinach, brussel sprouts, herbs and spices. I will admit that I never developed a taste for liver (nor do I want to). I made this Moussakka a while ago and ate it every day for a week.  I froze half of it but ended up thawing it out right away. It consists of sliced eggplant layered...
