| Fig, Feta Cheese and Arugula Salad |
The Herbal Husband fixed one of my favorite dinners last night. He made a new salad because of the abundance of figs this year. It was a fig cut in quarters, feta cheese, arugula and balsamic vinegar and olive oil and a nasturtium flower. Then we had tuna cakes, potatoes and wax beans from our garden! Nothing quite like growing and eating your own food! It was delicious! Had the last of the apple pie warmed up! The Herbal Husband is already asking for another pie!

| One of my favorite birthday dinners |
The Herbal Husband cut one of the last 'Brother Cadfael' roses for my birthday and said, "Now you can make your own bouquet!" So I did!

| A Birthday Bouquet! |
Besides the 'Brother Cadfael' rose, there is lemon balm, calendula, sunflower, sage, bee balm, oregano, a fennel flower, peppermint, artemesia and, of course, lemon verbena! A different view from every side!
My birthday is still several days away. Made dinner reservations at an old restaurant with new owners for Saturday,
the Cross Keys Inn. Have a coupon for my free burger at Red Robin and you get a free sundae as well! It's a great deal. We are taking our friends, Jim and Laverne out on Thursday! Three things Jim loves Laverne, his wife, the Pennsylvania Turnpike and Hoss's restaurant. So we will pick them up, get on the Turnpike and go to Hoss's. Jim was 94 in early August and I'm going to be 29 again! More exercise to come after all this eating! Hope you had a great day wherever you may be! Talk to you later!
