You forgot to add that you were running and hiding at the end of your post...!!!

I let it slide, this once

Well if Texas red has sirloin in it, then....nope sorry. It was vegetarian. It was still delicious on top of baked potatoes even sans carne.

The best meals always are

Yes, they are all indigenous wildflowers.
Drives through the hill country during this time of year can be quite amazing. I really love wildflowers...maybe it's that "wild" part...!
Is there such a thing as a "wildflorist"...?!

I just call them dinner

Pick your poison...!

Do you remember...
the backyard playground Push-Pull Merry-go-round?

or Chiclet Gum pieces. Green was my favorite.

or
rotary dial Pay Phones. I was often too short to reach up to put the change in.

or
a favorite of junior high gals, lip smackers-nice smelling, over
sized chap sticks.

or
Alphie? Learn your math facts and play music tunes for small kids

All of the above but lip smackers are back so even @StarWarsGirl may know them

I never had Alphie, but remember it. I think I remember rotary pay phones. I know we had a rotary at our house growing up at one point. I actually thought it was fun to use watching it spin back after you dialed a number. It was not fun if you were trying to call ticketmaster. Thank heavens for push buttons that allowed you to get your concert tickets before they sold out because the rotary dial was so slow.
I remember chiclets and the Merry-Go-Round. Not sure about the Lip Smackers.

Windy and a high of only 53 today. The sun is supposed to pop out here and there but I won't hold my breath. Upcoming forecast calls for 4 days of rain!!!

I remember camping out for concert tickets and the only reason I was allowed to do so was because my parents knew one of the police officers assigned to security. Our rotary got switched out in our house when my line was put in because it was considered one house call. I even remember getting a doctor's house call. Chicken Pox was all over the place the year we got it so our doctor shut down his office for the better part of a few days and made house calls for it so his older patients wouldn't be exposed. We had a GP until he retired

Hugs, ours is supposedly going to last through tomorrow. Monday should be sunny and the start of a warm up. I'll believe it when it happens.

Oh to see a 70 degree day again like that day in February. What a tease. I may have to wait until our trip in May.
