Santa and Jewish Lad.
My friend David sent me this. Love it.
Many birds, but all seen on Nov 28 on a trip out to Scorpion Island in Lake Chapala.
For the Birds of the Week prompt
The blue plastic bird, circa 1947 or earlier. On every Xmas tree I ever remember while growing up. The gold silk horse and knitted baby doll purchased in China, 1967. They’ve been on every tree I’ve ever decorated!!!
For Wordless Wed.
I have lots of new photos of flowers, but cannot resist posting this photo instead. I swear it was not set up. I found it exactly as photographed! If the bottom spear is a Mother in Law Plant, then the leaf must be the Son in Law!
For Cee’s FOTD
Judy’s Addictive Sangria Brew
Frozen strawberries, eight or ten––
find a pitcher, toss them in.
Pour Tequila, just to cover.
(Not too much, Tequila-lover!)
Next, Sangria, Kirkland brand.
a third way up the pitcher is grand.
Then orange juice in equal measure,
and then to guarantee your pleasure,
7-Up to fill the place
that formerly was only space.
Let it sit, then stir it up
and pour it in a pre-iced cup.
Guaranteed to please each guest,
but the way I like to serve it best?
Frozen strawberries in lieu of ice.
And the presentation’s especially nice
with bamboo skewer to stab the berry.
Is this drink addictive? Very!!!!
I learned how to make this sangria at a friend’s house in Wyoming and carried it back to Mexico with me where it has become an addiction among my friends, with only one or two hard-core white wine-drinkers abstaining,
Looks like I missed the cutoff date, but this was written for the dVerse Poets: Recipes in Rhyme
