I picked the last of the peas. We have been eating on them for the past several weeks, mostly just picked and eaten immediately on salads or just right out of our hands. But it was coming to the end of a great run, so I picked the remaining crop.
Then I shelled all of them.
And then I made our lunch with them, pea salad with mint and goat cheese.
Did you know that a serving of peas has more protein than an egg?
We had Fried egg on fresh salad greens from the garden, garnished with bacon, freshly grated romano cheese, fresh dill and then served with brie and fruit, and peach tea to drink. The salad was tossed with champagne vinaigrette.
Birdman got me a new lily yesterday, Alabama Jubilee.
It is the beautiful red one reflecting in the mirror.
There are so many beautiful lilies blooming this week. There is a new surprise each morning.
It has been raining for a good part of the morning. That makes it a perfect day to sit and read on the porch. The most active part of the day has been chasing the chipmunk that has taken up residence in the house. We can not catch him; even the cats have tried. Kitty had him in her jaws, but he escaped.
