Friday Five

Here we go. Another week has flown by. The beginning of summer, complete with high temperatures and an explosion of growth both in the orchard and the garden. Here’s what else is happening.

1. My darling Greta is really slowing down. The pain medication is working well to keep her comfortable, but my dear pup gets gray/whiter, by the day. I’m not a happy camper when it comes to my doggies getting older.
2. Hubby was busy all day caring for the fruit trees. He came in to eat his lunch, and dinner, and now at 8:30 PM on Thursday night, and he is finally done.
3. I went to the grocery store today and there was a display of fresh corn on the cob. One of my favorites. I went over to check it out, and the husks were moist and fresh looking. I lifted an ear up to my nose, and I swear to God, it smelled fresh!
4. I brought two home and cooked them for dinner. Hubby was teasing me the entire time about the ears smelling fresh, but once we tasted the corn, we knew! Fresh corn on the cob!
5. I will end this week’s Friday Five with an interesting movie I saw this week. “The Age of Adaline”. I had heard that some people really liked it and some did not.After seeing it, I suspect it is mostly a chick flick. It is slow and steady and full of special, intimate, moments. Good acting, good story and a sweetness not seen in many movies these days.
