I know not from where it cameth (a work friend sent it to me, but before that??), but it madeth me laugh…

Share Your World – June 5, 2017

And now for this week’s Share Your World (https://ceenphotography.com/2017/06/05/share-your-world-june-6-2017/).

Ok, you can start groaning now…

What’s your strongest sense?

My sense of indignation.

Which of Snow White’s 7 dwarfs describes you best? (Doc, Happy, Bashful, Sleepy, Sneezy, Grumpy, Dopey)

Is there a dwarf called “Indignation”?

If you could be one age for the rest of your life, what age would that be?

The age of enlightenment.  Although, I think it’s too late for that now.

Random Tuesday, a day early…

A response in avoidance of the Daily Post’s Writing Prompt https://dailypost.wordpress.com/prompts/uniform/

And, of course, my “Random Tuesdays” are pretty random in and of themselves, but since we have guests staying with us right now, my picture-taking over the weekend was sparse.  However, I did get a couple of shots that might make you smile.

I always wondered what happened to all those old yardsticks we never use any more.  Apparently they are all hanging on the wall at our local Castle store.

And this?  This was floating next to one of the float homes in our Fisherman’s Wharf.  I couldn’t NOT stop and take its picture…

Happy Monday all!!

Keeping things normal

A response in avoidance of the Daily Post’s Writing Prompt https://dailypost.wordpress.com/prompts/distant/

With everything that’s happened in the past couple of days and weeks, I just wanted to blog something mundane today.  So, here we go.

Kevin and I went to our favourite restaurant on Saturday – Olo – and here are the dishes from the tasting menu!

Radish salad

Lamb Tartar

And for the me, who can’t eat gluten, my favourite:  Sunflower Seed Risotto!

Next, smoked salmon

Then a bit of duck

Followed by a yummy chocolate (flourless) cake (picture taken after a couple of bites…)

And then, after cleaning all out plates, a nice walk home.
