I planted peppermint stick zinnias in my pots on my front steps. They are now starting to bloom and as each one opens, I am amazed at mother nature and human accomplishments. Each one is a different color, but they have red stripes on each petal. You have to see them up close to appreciate their beauty and I am so glad I put them on the front porch where visitors get to see them.

The 7yr old kid across the street has a broken arm. He was sitting on the front porch watching his brother and friends play in the sprinkler, looking really bummed. I asked him if her knew how to play marbles. (of course he didn't. It's 2010 and he's 7. lol.)

What made me smile was, after I showed him how to play we played for a little more than an hour. He was really diggin it. When he was leaving, he asked if we could play again tomorrow.

My tea-sipping little lady as she absently reflects, "The English have good taste..."

Bear replies, "What did they eat?"

I have no idea where that came from.
