Out on A Limb

"Where is Mama? We are waiting."

I love this delightful photo of all the little birds lined up waiting for Mama to come home with dinner. I think they look worried, don't you? via

Green Smoothie Detox Popsicles

These look so good. I recently got a great set of Williams Sonoma push-up popsicle molds at a thrift store for almost no money. They don't make them anymore so I was thrilled. They will be perfect for this recipe:

GREEN SMOOTHIE DETOX POPS

1 apple, cored and cut up into chunks

2 cups green grapes
juice of 1 lemon
2 tbsp honey or agave
2 cups chopped kale, packed
1 cup cubed zucchini
1/4 to 1/2 cup water
1 avocado, peeled + de-stoned

Put all the ingredients, apart from the avocado, into a blender (start out with 1/4 cup of water. Add up to 1/4 cup more if you need it to get it blending) and blend until smooth.

Place a fine mesh strainer over a medium bowl. Pour the contents of the blender into the strainer and use a rubber spatula to push the juice through. Discard the pulp and rinse your blender. Pour the liquid back into the blender and add the avocado. Blend until smooth.

Divide mixture among the popsicle molds and freeze for 4-6 hours until firm (after 1 hour in the freezer, push popsicle sticks into the molds).

Don't they sound delicious? Recipe found here in celebration of Popsicle Week. Who knew?

Tabitha the Cat's Lazy Sunday Morning

She spent most of the morning on the sofa in many comfy positions without ever opening her eyes.

When the sun appeared from behind the cloud cover, she perked up and spent the rest of the day outside. Just looking at my photo makes me sleepy. Good night, sleep tight.

Future Gnome Home under Large Mushroom

We had some hard rain yesterday and last night. It has stopped now and it's just hot and muggy. I snapped this large mushroom this morning on an after-breakfast walk out back with the wonder dog. I added the fake rain just for fun.
