The French Mustard~ A Personal Recommendation

Photo: My Favorite Mustard

While in Paris, Larry and I go to a favorite 
bistro very often.
This year, with my Boeuf à Bourguignon,
Claude, the manager of the bistro, 
sent mustard to our table. 
It was the best mustard I have ever had. 
It is  made in Dijon, and is a little spicy.
After dinner on our last night in Paris, 
Claude wrapped up a container 
of this mustard for me to bring home.
(how sweet is THAT?)

Last week, here in Texas,
 we used the mustard with our pork medallions.
Perfection.
The mustard can now be ordered on Amazon.

Please have a good Sunday.
Love you beyond the moon.

The Lesson

 This week, I learned that people treat us exactly the way they feel about us.
I am hurt beyond belief
but know that having people in my life who do not care, is a toxic situation.

The End Of The Week

Photo: This Weeks Puzzle

 This weeks puzzle subject was of dog books.
Larry and I worked it together and it was awesome.
(Larry still works full time. He takes breaks in his busy day to to refocus his eyes and move around by coming to the dining room and finding a puzzle piece or two)

Photo: I loved this puzzle

It is the end of this sucky week.
(Don't ask) 
I am glad the week is over.
Maybe next week will be better?
Have a happy weekend....
Love you beyond the moon.

The Rose

Photo: The Rose

 On Mothers Day, Larry and I went to brunch and I was given this rose.
Four days later, it is still amazingly red and beautiful.
(I took this photo yesterday afternoon)

“Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.”

Please have a beautiful day.
Love you beyond the moon.

Spring At The Cottage

Photo: Mr. Miyagi

 
Larry and I went to Green Acres Garden Center.
It was a chilly morning, 
and we found this sweet Japanese
 Maple tree and named it, Mr. Miyagi.
Mr. Miyagi was a Japanese 
character in the movie
Karate Kid.
Mr. Miyagi lives in the shadow of a Boston fern
in the side garden and is quite happy.

I guess it's the little things
 in life that make us happy 
on these difficult days.
Mr. Miyagi!
Love you beyond the moon.
