Random Tuesday Views

I've been enjoying the views of our

Fall foliage in Ohio... 

Linking this post to Bleubeard and Elizabeth's

T Tuesday blog hop,

where we share a beverage and a

variety of interests and activities.

This is a lunch in Panama City Beach,

Florida, where I enjoyed a beef pasty, 

back in February. The restaurant was called

Eat My Pasty. The food was tasty,

but there were exactly two pieces of

meat in my pasty, along with the 

potatoes and carrots. Not exactly plentiful.

I thought the flavor was very good, but the price

for what you received was high.  I 

suppose we were paying for the novelty

of authentic (?) British food. It IS a tourist

kind of town, especially in March when the

college students arrive for Spring Break.

We were looking for something fun and

different...you don't know until you try it, right?

I think my beverage in this photo was water.

Maybe not exciting, but trying to be healthy.

Our food tray was lined with deli paper

printed to resemble a London newspaper.

I got a kick out of some of the decor in the

tiny restaurant. This Dr. Who quote is classic:

"People assume that Time is a strict progression

of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear,

non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball

of wibbly wobbly timey wimey...stuff."

The "No Muggles Beyond This Point"

was a sign over the door to the kitchen.

Fun!...I wondered how many of the 

retired 'crowd' that are in residence during

the month of February

had any idea what these posters referred to...

the Harry Potter series of course!

Not sure if I showed the cover of my

Hobonichi Techo, that I finally finished.

It's painted fabric just wrapped around

the planner, secured with a bit of elastic.

It does the job just fine, without a

big price tag.

Here's a page in my Planner...yes, I drink

coffee from my Santa mug year-round!

I've been doing a challenge this month,

which gives a list of items to draw or 

write about each day. #7 was Butternut

squash.  The 72 seasons of Japan is an

interesting app that I downloaded to my

Smart phone. Every week or so, a new

season from the ancient calendar of Japan

is explained. I am enjoying the illustrations

included with the articles, and reading

about the flowers, vegetables, and

seasonal fish each season. 

Japan is blessed with weather that allows

Camellias to be blooming in November!

The U.S. election is today,

and I will do my duty and go vote.  I am

 ready for the country to move on. 

I hope you have a wonderful week,

and success in your creative endeavors!
