Monday Moments - A variety


 So, it's February 7th and our darn tulips are choosing  to  appear.  Say what?  I planted the bulbs early December per instructions.  Alas, I did not cover them and squirrels dug up a bunch.  After cold, rain, and now extremely warm weather (80s), tulips are appearing. 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I  wanted tulips to appear in late March.   Now I'm afraid of the freeze predicted later in  February.  

Stupid Texas weather. Yes,  it's climate change.  WTF

Pre-Valentine's treat.  Toast is a tribute band  for Bread.  Remember soft rock in  1971?  Sorta sissy tunes, but very hummable, sweet, and  yes so lovely?  If,  I Wanna Make it with you, Everything I Own, Guitar Man, and so  much more.   Well, Ray and I enjoyed the tribute band, Toast, at Arlington Music Hall.  Tight band, good  tunes, and the voices were great.    The lead singer truly did a good job. Hard to be as ethereal and airy as lead singer David Gates, but he did an admirable job.  Ray and I could relive memories of the 1970s.   Old fart concert  - damn good. 

Ha!  Yes, even if they are beyond a ridiculous price, I will support the Girl  Scouts.  Thin  Mints  are the only way to go.  And I stick them in  the freezer.  And I shall attempt to control myself from eating  a whole sleeve because they are GOLD. 

What's your flavor  downfall?

  1. The weather here has been very wet, followed by very windy, followed by cold, and then very wet again. I'm not sure our plants have any idea what time of year it is. Hopefully you'll have some lovely colour going into the spring.

    1. Hope so. Ready to cover things up for a few days of really cold (16 F) and yucky. I may be hiding under an afghan too.
      Keep warm yourself!
