I don't know what these flowers are, but I like the delicate color and the gentle curve of the petals.

Red Roses
These roses are along my walking route. I like roses, but I haven't had much success with them in my own flower beds.
Parmesan Roasted Green Beans With Mushrooms
This summer I'm trying to eat better and get more exercise. In my effort toward improving my diet, I read the book, The Blood Sugar Solution by Mark Hyman. The rules are no sugar, no flour, no processed foods, no alcohol, no caffeine (though I refuse to give up my tea). That means I'm eating lots of veggies. It's amazing how good things taste when you're not eating as much. I saw this recipe on Pinterest. You can find the original recipe here. I added in mushrooms and some onion. It was really delicious!
Parmesan Roasted Green Beans with Mushrooms
Ingredients:
1 lb of fresh green beans (trim off ends)
10-12 mushrooms, sliced
1 small thinly sliced onion
Grill Mates Garlic & Herb Vegetable seasoning (if you don't have this just use salt and pepper)
Olive oil
Parmesan Cheese
- Preheat oven to 400.
- In a mixing bowl combine green beans, mushrooms, and onions. Separate the onions into rings. Sprinkle with olive oil and seasoning.
- Spread the vegetables onto a cookie sheet and grate Parmesan cheese over the top.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Garnish with extra cheese.
Striped Petunias
I wonder how all these beautiful petunias will look after another week in the high nineties?
Garden Tours
I am trying to get out and walk every day. It's not easy right now, because the temperatures are in the nineties, so I'm out early each day. This house is on my street, but about a block north. There is a lot going on in this yard, but you can see from the fenced garden area, they have put a lot of work into it.
Pink Lily
These lilies just started blooming this week. It is located in a yard around the corner from my house.
