Hopping Down The Bunny Trail

I never get tired of watching the bunnies play...just look at the cottonball tail.

 

Molting Cicada

When they first appear they are kind of cute. Such fragile looking wings, until they dry. They leave behind those ugly brown skeletons on the brick, furniture, trees, etc.

Garden Foe

Here is what has been eating my Hibiscus.

Bama White Sauce

Southern BBQ sauces are mustard based. This is a mayo based sauce. Alone it is tangy and tart and is great on grilled chicken. Adjust the vinegar level to your liking. You may want to start with just a little less than 1 ounce and see if you like it before adding all of it.

Cider Vinegar - 1 ounce [= 2T] or 2 1/2 T for more tart

Water - 2 ounces [=4T]

Mayo - 1 1/2 cups

1 t - Black Pepper

1/2 t - Garlic Powder

1/2 t - Onion Powder

1/4 t - Cayenne Pepper or 1/2 for more kick

1/2 t - Dry Mustard
1 t- Lemon Juice

Pour vinegar into a pint jar. Add other ingredients and shake well. Refrigerate 2 hours or overnight. Use within a few days.

Pretty Salad

The red and yellow tomatoes from the garden make a pretty salad.

New Patio Set

Our friends are downsizing and so we bought their wicker set. I replaced our brown set with this one. Just need to get some cushions.
