A Mom-Conversation not to be Forgotten


Mom and I were at Olive Garden yesterday 
when this conversation occured.
We both had coffee and inside the top of the cup the following words were written:  Caffe' la Toscana.
Mom:  What does that mean?
Me: I have trouble enough translating Jessi's messages in French without attempting Italian.
Mom, after a pause:  Well, it might say 'Your coffee is poisoned."
Me: Touche!  I'll ask our waitress.
Answer:  It translated something along the lines of 
'Coffee from the region of Tuscany."

My mother keeps me on my toes!

Helping Each Other Out


Like these birds I photographed in St. Augustine,
I, too, have a few friends who always have my back.
And that's a good thing.
