Happy Fridianne Day! Just returned from tennis with my son. He beat the heck out of me! Hubs is out with his friend having coffee and talking sports and politics, I’m sure. As I drove home, I was impressed with the look of my azalea shrubs. I have about 17 or 18 and they are beginning to bloom! Love pink! Snapped this photo a minute before it began to drizzle. Waiting for an Instacart delivery and hubs just this minute returned with ice cream, bagels, and English muffins! Too much food here!

See, that’s the difference in the north and the south. Down here, it’s just good manners to let mama win. Too much food, but I’m sure you’ll take care of that soon. Have a great day with your beautiful azaleas!

Dave Jennings, a former punter for the NY Giants, once told me to forget my femininity when playing sports. My son knew I was out to win. Next time! I don’t need that “food” he bought. Perhaps he knew I was ordering healthy. Thanks so much! Have a good day, too. See you soon. My delivery just arrived!

@just4him Shrimp and sausage scampi with peas over linguine and an Asian salad. Sounds pathetic, but it’s delicious.

Beautiful! I grew up with these in my parent's front yard . . . these really make me think of my childhood (especially this color). Yep - yesterday we said again - we certainly are not starving .

@DianneN Crazy with the colors is FUN - pretty to look at!! Ohhhh, I guess the deer and squirrels know too darn well that it's snacking season !

I’m glad I brought back such fond memories. . The others fade to a pale pink. I love pink! But I went crazy with other colors in our backyard and rock garden and, of course, the deck where the deer and squirrels better not find them!
