Beautiful day today

These are some of the flowers in my front yard. So pretty aren't they? I think this is my favorite picture of my flowers... today anyway. :)
Today after going to the Pet food store and buying a new lamp and some groceries I started to read ...... I finished Harry Potter today. I had a little over 100 pages left and couldn't put it down... it was a good book but now I'm afraid to read the last one... good thing it will be at least a year before that happens... I liked this book better than the last one... maybe because that one was so darned long and it was just so heavy carrying it around to read.
Today and tomorrow is our church picnic... I may go after mass tomorrow to get some chicken booyah or maybe a hamburger etc... did you ever have Chicken Booyah? It is very popular around here especially at church picnics. Its a delicious chicken vegetable soup. They cook it in a big  drum sort of a cauldron over fire outside.... everyone has their favorite recipe ... I have mine too. But the one at St Johns is the best around and  people from all over come to our picnic...(no bones in ours) Tonight there was roast pork and hamburgers and brats etc etc etc... I didn't go but 4 of my kids and their friends went and they even saw one of my sisters there. They had a nice band tonight too I guess... It sounded good at my house which is a mile away, LOL Tomorrow there will be 2 more bands and a fire dept water fight and bingo and childrens games etc... It's usually so hot but this is a good week end for it I think... tonight was perfect any way...
Guess its time for bed if I want to get up early tomorrow morning. Hope you have a nice Sunday, Sandra

What a lovely garden you have Sandra and hope you have a nice time at the church picnic tomorrow.  It's too hot here in Florida for an outdoor picnic of any kind.  Hugs,

Beautiful flowers and good food.  What more can you ask for.  :-)  You garden is so pretty.  Down here all of our lilies and most of the other flowers are finished for the season.  I have Mums and Gardenias that are still blooming nicely.
