A rocket we fired off on July 4th into a beautiful blue sky. I set the exposure for about 10 seconds so I was able to capture the rockets path also.

Food 4 Thought Friday



Breakfast
What is your favorite part of the summertime?
I love the flowers, the storms, the sunsets, lightning bugs, cookouts! Too many things!

Lunch
How was this week different than others?
This week has been like a rollercoaster. Alot of stress and also alot of good news too.


Dinner
What did you think of Michael Jackson?
I loved him. I grew up dancing to his music and always thought he was amazing. Yes he was bizarre but he was thrust into the limelight at age 8 and never had a normal childhood. Of course he was going to be strange. But I do not believe he was a bad person. I think people took advantage of him.


Midnight Snack
What do you have planned for this weekend?
Not too much. Birthday lunch at Olive Garden for my MIL on Sunday, apart from that no plans yet.


Recipe for the Week (instead of your recipe for life, what is it just for this week?)
After losing so many famous people this week I think I am going to try to live life to the fullest this week. We never know how long we have.

Skywatch Friday 26th June 2009


Taken about a week ago from my in-laws back yard in China Grove, NC. They are both made up of about 4 shots I took with my Canon XSi then stitched together with Autostitch. No other editing done.

I don't think I will every tire of the beautiful skies I see here.

Friday 5 for June 19: Dairy



What are your feelings about milk?
I love milk in coffee, cereal and anything else, but I am not a fan of plain milk eg: I don't drink a glass of milk, unless it is flavoured.

What are your feelings about cheese?
LOVE cheese! Yum yum! But I am not a fan of melted cheese. I prefer cheese & crackers or in a sandwich. But I hate pizza that is thick with cheese. A little is fine but anything more is yuck.


What are your feelings about yogurt?
I like yoghurt, especially in bircher muesli! Yum!


How do you feel about soy milk?
I don't mind it that much. It's nice on cereal but not in coffee. I was raised by a Vegan so I have had all those types of things and I don't mind it.


How far are you from the nearest cow?
I could walk for about 10 mins to one. That's how close. Driving, 2 mins.

Skywatch Friday



Hubby & I were sitting on our deck trying to catch a glimpse of the hummingbirds that have been frequenting the feeder and neither of us paid any attention to the setting sun behind us. When I got up to go inside I saw this and had to take photos!
