May 14, 2012 – Until recent years you never would have convinced me to eat corn before late July at the earliest. The best corn was at the farms in August.

February 19, 2012 – Ran through the grocery store to pick up a few staples – yogurt, strawberries, mangoes, bananas, salad green – and all the Easter candies have now replaced the Valentine’s Day sweets in the bins near the healthy stuff. Must resist, must resist!!! Just realized this is photo number 50, a milestone photo, and I didn’t really…

An idea blatantly stolen from a Flickr contact (but I did tell her I was going to be a thief). Her Daily Challenge a few days ago was “What Money Can’t Buy” and her answer to it was “Someone To Share Your Morning Coffee With”.
