Never in a million years..

 Would I have said..I would be spending so much time on football fields.

I was the youngest of three..the other two being boys.. 10 and 7 yr difference..I don't remember much as my youngest brother moved out at 17 and I was 10..

But I do remember in the corner of my mind..Sports being the shows of choice.:(

And here I am at 68.. enjoying watching my grandsons play football..not being hurt..but playing.

No one handsomer than ours lol in their uniforms to me.

So that's where we were all weekend:)

This is hands down my fave easiest no knead bread..

Rock Recipes.

I bake it in that huge clay baker..

 

Put in a cold oven ..450 ..45 minutes..

Remove lid.. ap 10 mins.

It's just perfect.And toasted? Yes please.

So weird.. my tomato plants look awful..burnt diseased etc..still producing but ugly ugly..and sparse like tomatoes hanging from nothing..

and then in my garlic patch where I literally threw things..look..the rosemary is gargantuan..in a pot. the nasturtiums and tomatoes have taken over the plot..and the calendula are starting..

Everything looking so healthy..amazing..

One thing i love about jumbo zinnias..almost my height are the varieties that came to be.I love them all and find them very photogenic without trying:)

Winner winner.

On a sadder note we have a variety of hydrangeas here the first to bloom and knock socks off are Annabelle..we have them here and tehre and bordering the garage in front and house..  look..never has a summer been so dry to produce this..

Awful.Surprised our grass is green.

A formation of geese honking as I just took these pics flew by.

Very chilly this Am ..40's..

Leaves are starting to turn..I'm just not in a rush.We had 2 months of rain in one day two days ago..leaving many Mtl streets flooded..

we were fine..

On a cheerier. note.. bear with me..:)

Some football pics..:)

Friday Night Lights for Max and Saturday was Lucas..

Both teams have pro photographers that take awesome pics..

M Sébastien Gervais is amazing.

I don't know Lucas' but I love this photo they took.

To watch the boys and all the camaraderie is heartwarming.

I told Lucas I have great admiration for him.

From high school in French to college in English..

new team..all new people except one friend.

New everything.

Imagine that.

I'm in awe.

Noah walked over for lunch one day and will again:)He too jumped to a new school..

We took Oli out for his birthday..a tradition we didn't do for 2.5 yrs due to Covid.

A little tradition of lunch out and shopping one on one..

Not sure Ive mentioned how very nice all these boys are.(lol)

My heart actually swells and my face changes when I see them.

A sparkle in my eye.

And that's it and how fast is September going ?Yikes..

Oh a few good shows..

Blackbird..Ray Liotta's last work I think.

Bad Sisters..Bono's daughter who was in the Knickis one of the sisters.

Trying..funny and cute..

Bon weekend..its almost upon us!
