This weeks theme is 'Red', but right now I am making plans to paint Dallas, Texas when I arrive in a few weeks...

'...and they are still with you even when they leave this earth...!'
Well I did not have to go far to paint my town...I wore a lovely shade of red from last Friday to this past Tuesday, and have been shaking it off ever since.
My car went missing in front of the school where I teach culinary classes each week. Yep, just not in the spot I left it. I was in shock, but by the time I had to deal with everything...all I could see was red, but a surprisingly calmer shade of red than usual. We found it, I got it back, so all is fine, it just left me days behind in my work. 'Ketch' up is over, and red...
I decided since I was behind on my week, I had to improvise and use photos already taken around my town from last year to the past few days. They are connected with memories of more soothing and humorous shades of red.

thanks for visiting 'Flowers' I look forward to following your Friday Shoot outs. how old is the baby?
She is six months old now, and I love going over and playing with her, she now has that personality phase...
Guess I should have come here first to read about the van. What the heck was it damanaged? I'm so sorry about!
Love all the pics and especially the beautiful red head :)
A very interesting collection of "red" pictures, a bit of this and that made it nice. If I have my info right, you are from NJ? I live in Germany but am a jersey gal thru and thru! I miss it there very much. Take care, I will be back, Debby
Elizabeth, you amaze me with your boldness in all that you do. I enjoyed your photos, and the commentary/poetry. I'll visit again later when I have more time.
So you are headed to Texas soon, eh? As you know, I just got back. I sure did enjoy eating all the WONDERFUL food there! I can't wait to hear about your trip. ;-)
Very red...loved it :)
I love how you thought outside the box. Wonderful choices!
I enjoyed your photos and your writing.
You came up with something brilliant...just as I knew you would my lovely. What a pretty snapshot of you Chef E......both before and after the wine, lol.
My snapshot of Levi with the cupcake all over his face might have made you laugh but you thinking he was MY son made me laugh even louder. Girl please.....at this stage in my life I would hurl myself into a volcano.........
Levi is in my Awana clas that I teach on Wednesday nights and he is such a character. He wants to be a chef........I kid you not. He's a scream and makes me laugh hysterically every single week.
I do wish I loved closer so that we could maybe all get together.....I'm quite a long way from Maryland though :(
I have really been thinking about trying to organize a little half way get together for several of us sometime later in the summer. A girl think you know??? I wonder how many people we could get to participate if we tried to book something at a reasonable place. I just know it would be a blast!!
I can't tell you how often I use you as an example in my own organic veggie business and my catering. Girl, you're an inspiration to me. Know that......
Steady On
Reggie Girl
Oh BUH...........I got to saying so much that I forgot to tell you something.........
Please give me your address. I prmise not to publish it (not on here anyway, lol).
I have something just expecially for you. Because you're you :)
Steady On
Reggie Girl
Loosing your car is not fun and would certainly make me see red.
Loved the photo of the pup!
Love the wine shot, funny!
My favorite shot i of super pup! Well done, and all of the red language too!
What a Week! You did just great having gone through all of that. I'd be seeing red too!
Let me know when you are in Dallas I might be there..
love the colour of your hair, gorgeous, and that li'l baby...aaaw.
Great pix -- love the red hair!
Ahh, you have a poets heart, I can see it in your words and shots...The red box evokes feelings of romance...the pup is too cute...I'm glad you improvised, it worked really well...
