Here's what remains of that poor tree from yesterday's post.

I like this combination of flowers under a tree I was walking by the other day. Great colour and texture.
I saw this article on a middle eastern spice called sumac that I've been hearing about more and more. Here is a recipe for Sumac-marinated chicken kebabs. Here's one for Grilled eggplant with feta, mint & sumac.
Yesterday, the L took K for a drive to get an eyebrow waxing. Then they went to McDonald's and brought me back an iced coffee. Apparently K warned her that a guy was running a stop sign. All's well that ends well. K met a friend in McD's and was acting like a big shot (no parents tagging along!).
Went for a walk this morning with a friend. She's heading out to a cottage weekend with her son and a couple of old girlfriends. It should be a great gab session for them. It's getting hot outside. My sister's due to arrive from Florida this afternoon. L painted our nails black for tomorrow's American Idol concert!
I just had a knock at the door. I had to open it when I saw this young Chinese woman with the cutest little blonde boy at the door. He was holding a pamphlet and seemed to be about 4 years old. I thought, I guess I'll HAVE to give some money. It was a Jehovah's witness pamphlet. I politely handed it back to the little kid and they went off to another house. But I don't think they should be using that little boy like that. He must be wondering why people keep giving back his flyer.
