This and That-Things I’m Loving

I have just a few schnibbles of goodness to share.

1. This has been my breakfast of choice for most mornings this summer.

001

A generous helping of Dannon plain yogurt, add 3 Splenda’s, a handful of blueberries, and 4 strawberries. Then add a goodish amount of this granola. I have tried other kinds, but have come to the conclusion that only this brand will do. It’s the perfect amount of crunchy. Since Sam’s no longer carries it, as they discontinue all of my favorite things, I was happy to discover it at Trader Joe’s. They had a much better price than either Meijers or Krogers. Yummo!

2. Big “Top Chef” AND “Project Runway” started this week! We are so happy, oh so happy!

Except we were so  disappointed  that Korto did not win the all star challenge episode of “Project Runway”, instead of Daniel. Her designs are so consistently fabulous and wearable, and I’m sorry Daniel, I just don’t know what the judges were raving about. I don’t know anyone who would wear anything you created. And judges, you thought his restaurant part of the challenge was “fun”? Honey thought it looked like she had dynamite strapped to her torso! OK, we are out of touch with fashion in America. We love you, Korto!!!

3. My confetti lantana is looking beautimous! It was a pathetic wreck of a thing when I bought it for $5 at the meat market. I had seen one at a house on the garden walk that I went to with The Peanuts Champ, so I knew how loverly it could look. Best yet, it’s loaded with blooms!

4. That our ridiculous humidity has dropped for the moment. I was melting.

5. Loving that the festival known as “BoobSmash”,  is over until next year. This year, my reminder note told me not to wear any deodorant. They usually say light deodorant. I believe I may have mentioned that my internal thermometer is about 10-15 degrees warmer than usual these days. Why, no, I wasn’t at all nervous as a cat about being Hottie McDottie with NO deodorant. I had it in my purse and it was the first thing I did when I got into the car. Sweet relief.

What are you loving these days?

    Well first, I have to say that I was looking for a picture of lasagna, and when I found none, I reread it correctly as this plant thing you’re referring to…

    I’m loving that it’s late August and we have fall weather (for now). Slept with the windows open last night!
