The Best Thing

 On Sunday, I tried a new recipe.

It was super easy, healthy and delicious.

The best part of the dinner is the picture.

Just kidding.....

Happy Tuesday.

Love you beyond the moon.

The Silhouette

 We have cats in the neighborhood.

Their owners let them run loose

and

other neighbors feed then.

(Larry and I do not feed the stray cats)

It is always fun for neighborhood people 

until the cats get sick.

I wish the people who randomly feed the cats

would take them to the Vet when 

they begin to get ill.

Above is Magic. He is very old, 

his fur is falling out and

he loves to pose.

Love you beyond the moon.

A Drive Into Dallas

 Yesterday was a strange day.

It started with me eating breakfast.

I never eat breakfast and

 the day went downhill from there.

We drove into town and went antiquing.

We did not spend one penny.

(the few things I liked

were much to expensive)

Traffic was awful and drivers were even worse.

I was so glad to return home.

I curled up in bed to read 

and fell asleep for an hour.

That means I was up all night watching TV.

It is Sunday morning.

I am exhausted and grumpy.

Please have a better day than I am having!

Love you beyond the moon.

Robin's Book List~August

Last Sunday, Larry and I were 

at Half Price Books in Dallas.  

We each went our own separate

 way to find a perfect book.

After shopping, when we reconnected, 

Larry handed me a book and 

said: I found this for you.

The book looked interesting and 

I thought,

Oh well. I hope that I like it.

(He NEVER picks out books for me)

I started the book and it was...ick....

but that changed on about page 30.

It is awesome.

I am enjoying it very much,

both because Larry picked

 it out for me and it is a good read.

Here is what Amazon says about it:

 The Lost Apothecary by Sarah Penner

A forgotten history. A secret network of women. A legacy of poison and revenge. Welcome to the Lost Apothecary…

Hidden in the depths of eighteenth-century London, a secret apothecary shop caters to an unusual kind of clientele. Women across the city whisper of a mysterious figure named Nella who sells well-disguised poisons to use against the oppressive men in their lives. But the apothecary’s fate is jeopardized when her newest patron, a precocious twelve-year-old, makes a fatal mistake, sparking a string of consequences that echo through the centuries.

Meanwhile in present-day London, aspiring historian Caroline Parcewell spends her tenth wedding anniversary alone, running from her own demons. When she stumbles upon a clue to the unsolved apothecary murders that haunted London two hundred years ago, her life collides with the apothecary’s in a stunning twist of fate—and not everyone will survive.

With crackling suspense, unforgettable characters and searing insight, The Lost Apothecary is a subversive and intoxicating debut novel of secrets, vengeance and the remarkable ways women can save each other despite the barrier of time.

It looks like Larry indirectly 

picked out this months book...

Happy Reading!

 The hollyhocks in the back garden are blooming.

They were just planted this year...

and they are blooming!

I remember hollyhocks in my grandmothers garden

and love them so much.

They make a garden very special.

Happy Friday!

Love you beyond the moon.

It was a perfect summer evening.

Love you beyond the moon.
