Field Notes- February 14th. Valentine's Day. Sunshine, 2 inches of snow overnight. 50 degrees.


 An image I saved for Today.  Zinnias.  For You... In a canning jar.  From a Gardening Site.

Yes, it did snow overnight.  And Yes, it will get up into the 50's in a few hours.

I walked to the end of the street and back delivering Valentine's to my neighbors yesterday.  Not all of them.   It's not like the Olden Days in the 90's. When I would have given all of them a card.  

The walk notified me that my right hip and leg do not like going for walks....... the result of our 1969 VW bug being smashed in the passenger side.....and me being the passenger.  An injury that is like an unwanted gift......Can't return it and no chance of making it any better.  51 years.

So.......enough woe is me.  I baked potatoes yesterday and had one for my dinner with sour cream, butter and chives.  I got chives from the special section of the fresh vegetable area. Special Chives.

Husband gave me a scrap of paper on which he wrote Happy Valentine's Day. 

Thursday, my end of the road neighbor and I will be going to LUNCH and we are both very very excited.  She and her husband were cleared by their doctor (of COVID).  They have both been sick. but are now well.  They said it was like a very very bad cold with a fever.  They have had all their vaccines and boosters.  They had the special booster- I had the regular.

Well, I am now very very happy I didn't waste a speck of my Time on the Super Bowl.

I was also perplexed and oddly hysterical about the Security Chief in his briefing saying the balloons were NOT being sent by Extra-terrestials. Excuse the spelling.  I never thought I would be using the term. I'll find out how to spell it.......cause, its a "thing" now.  Oh, Yes, it is..........wow.

I am planting lots of zinnias this year in rows and among the vegetables.
Sour cream butter and chives on baked potato yum.

Have been lucky on the covid front but still need to get a booster.

Happy Valentines Day
Beverly
