I found out that green olives adds a lot of salt to spaghetti. I have been adding black olives which I thought tasted close to mushrooms in my homemade spaghetti sauce. It was when I went to an Italian restaurant in Gainesville, Florida, I learned they add combination of both green and black olives which gave a salty flavor which was more than I choose to add. I did enjoy letting someone else cook for an afternoon and to enjoy eating with friends. Gainesville is a place I would get lost very easily. I am really unfamiliar with the roads and where they lead. I am amazed by my sister and her friend who knew which lane to drive in to reach their destination. I was a fish out of water. Early this morning I got to look at a one headlight moon with a small ring which was rainbow and glissoning with wet dew. I heard a train cry in the distance and turned louder when it was close. I can hardly believe Saturday is here. The day just doesn't seem like a Saturday.
If the crew of Gilligan's Island took a three hour trip to Williston, it would be nothing like being stuck on an island. There were no storms on the way over to Williston, but I did have tailgaters. I had people who would pass me and not in the passing lane. I would be listening to the talk shows just to keep my mind alert. My mom made the trip for years listing to public radio. I don't know how she did it. I do not travel alone, but my passenger travels in a cage in the back seat. He is a doggy with a independent personality. I have taken him from his lizard catching environment and placed him on thirteen acres to chase rogue roosters. There is only one rooster who is suppose to rule the hen house. However, two from next door are trying to move in on the main rooster's territory. I have passed my favorite barbeque place in Deland, Florida. (Sonny's) I like their garlic bread and french fries and slice pork. I also like their bake beans and a big giant glass of ice tea with lemon. I got caught up in the flow of the traffic and very rarely stopped to enjoy the sights. There was a big giant bridge I cross and had trouble seeing the water underneath. It also has a famous river which the writer "Marjorie Kinnon Rawlings" traveled.
Coffee does get the brain going. I was playing the game Chickentary which kind of gets you tied into the game. It ask for more words that you can create out of the letters which are given. Some are easy while others are hard. I wonder if more rain will be coming today. It sure doesn't feel like the middle of the week. The picture is my new gate which I am enjoying.
What is your favorite meal? Do you like chicken? How about Hamburger? Does it have to be Organic? How much Organic do you include in your everyday meal? What kind of meals do you like when the weather is warm and what kind of meals do you like when the weather gets cooler? I like fried chicken and spaghetti. I like fried round steak with mushrooms and topped with tomato paste made into a gravy. The tomato paste gravy is good on some mashed potatoes. My mom was always partial to Idaho potatoes. I do think they produce a hearty potato. Do you like fish? I like salmon and shrimp. I like scallops. Food seems to be a fun subject to talk about. I also like blueberries, but last time I had to pay over five bucks for a pint of blueberries. I need to shop around.
Being far removed from a big city like New York during a September 11, I enjoyed a windy day at home with my dog Max. He was more interested in lizards and chomping down on my arm while I type on the computer. He has turned his interest to looking on the back of the swivel chair outside. The sunset is fading to a pale yellow. I would think it would reach a golden stage. Maybe, with a cool down of the air the sunsets will be more worth remembering as a perfect piece of art work. I hope you have a cool evening.
The full moon is fading into the morning daylight. It was a small full moon called a "Blue Moon." The weather has not changed from the summer like conditions of heat and humidity. The only thing true is my thoughts of fall in the past. The cooler weather and nip in the air. The sweater and jacket weather that feels good when you wear them. School starts getting into full swing with kids attending on a regular cycle. I guess as a kid I would be hoping for bad weather just to get a break from school. However, with every day off is another day to be made up. This usually means shorter vacations and in some cases longer school days. I wish Hollywood would create some good movies with good plots. I miss the days of feel good movies that inspire you when the movie ends. I have been enjoying the "Green Hornet" television series. This is on one of my extended channels. There are many other documentaries on other channels worth watching. I have been told there will be a "Cracker Barrel" restaurant opening up in October. I am looking forward to this event. I hope everyone has a good Labor Day weekend.
