More Photos from Pepper Place

This kid found a front row seat for himself!

Love this color scheme.

Just looking makes my mouth water and my thoughts wander toward bacon and tomato sandwiches...mmmmm!

We had to try Sassy's Homemade Amish Recipe ice cream.

Love that sweet smile!

My final purchase...a mixed bouquet of sunflowers and stuff from the Jones Valley Urban Farm booth.

I bet that homemade ice cream was yummy! I'm ready for corn on the cob and BLT's...but the corn and tomatoes aren't quite here yet!

Oh, could I ever go for a BLT with arugula added. I could put that on most everything but that ice cream!

I'm glad you stopped by and I look forward to your comments. As Dr. Fraser Crane would say, "Hello, I'm listening."

...."We were Birds Without Wings. You were a robin and I was a blackbird. And there were some who were eagles or vultures or pretty gold finches, but none of us had wings. For birds with wings nothing changes. They fly where they will and they know nothing about borders and their quarrels are very small. But we are always confined to earth, no matter how much we climb to the high places and flap our arms. Because we cannot fly we are condemned to do things that do not agree with us. Because we have no wings we are pushed into struggles and abominations that we did not seek and then after all that, the years go by. The mountains are leveled. The valleys rise. The rivers are blocked by sand and the cliffs fall into the sea." -Louis De Berniere

Who Said It First?

The phrase "little birdie told me so" may find it's origins in this Bible verse. "Do not revile the king even in your thoughts, or curse the rich in your bedroom, because a bird of the air may carry your words, and a bird on the wing may report what you say" (Ecclesiastes 10:20). The earliest form of the saying was included in John Heywood's collection of proverbs (1546). In 1583, Brian Melbancke wrote in 'Philotimus'" 'I had a little bird, that brought me newes of it.' In 1711, in 'Letter to Stella,' Jonathan Swift came close to the current version: 'I heard a little bird say so.'
