Buddies. (194/365)
Sorry, couldn't access Photobucket and do any editing, it is late, I just remembered I needed a picture for the day...so, you know how it goes! This is what happens when I'm in a rush!

I have been looking for these all over Richmond and, thanks to my friend Beth, I have a supplier! The Market in Shockoe Bottom!

Halfway (183/365)
For my halfway point, I'm doing a mix of two pictures...one of me kissing Ralph and one of a mosaic tile on a local building. Sorry it's not more original today, but I'm too tired to use my brain to think up a new Ralph-related picture for this evening!

Southern Style (179/365)
I am slowly learning how to cook. Yay, me! Tonight I took all those veggies I got yesterday and cooked up some braised collards and cheesy squash casserole. Those are my two favorite dishes at Comfort and I'm happy to say that what I made tonight is just as good and cost much less!

Pole Green Produce (178/365)
 |
| I have never seen spring onions so large! The bulbs are the size of golf balls! ($1/bunch) |
I quickly remembered why this local produce stand used to be a favorite summer shopping spot of mine, as well as why it has been in business for so long...I remember driving by it while riding the bus home that one year I went to Lee-Davis High School. People will drive for miles to get their produce and, I can guarantee, I will definitely be back for more throughout the summer. Their produce surpasses what any other Farmer's Market and/or grocery store has to offer!
 |
| Ralph can't wait for me to cook up some of the collards and squash, or make a cobbler with these juicy, locally grown blackberries. I only eat Hanover tomatoes, as any other type just tastes too grainy for me. Plus, having grown up in Hanover, anything else is sacrilege! Luckily, Pole Green had a huge selection, where none of the grocery stores I frequent have any in (yet) this year. I picked up a few and can't wait to have the first tomato sandwich of the season. |

Council of Misfit Toys (177/365)
 |
| Ralph, holding court with the Council of Misfit Toys |
***Those of you concerned about all the misfit toys that have shown up in the past few posts, never fear! They are toys that have been overly loved by my friend's dog, Maggie. She seems to have a penchant for unintentionally mutilating them within hours of having them gifted to her. She just loves them too much; hence, the headless duck of yesterday and the gutted fish of the day before that. Oh, yeah, and all of the toys in today's picture are part of her collection. Most of them, at one point, contained squeakers. Now not one of them has one. She can remove a squeaker with surgical precision. I kid you not, most of the toys have a one inch, straight incision where she's chewed (?) into the toy and removed it. Quite remarkable, right? I think I'll have her do my next surgery.

Birth (174/365)
Ralph obtained a picture taken at his birth...seems he caused a bit of damage to the "motherfish."

Window watchin' (173/365)
This is a series of pictures I took of Bailey and Ralph, looking out the window in my living room. :) Enjoy!
 |
| "Why, hello there, Ralph." |
 |
| "You're smelling very nice, not fishy at all." |
 |
| "You feel pretty nice too." |
 |
| "Let's sit and relax a bit. Catch up on the neighborhood gossip." |
 |
| "Ahhh, Sunday." |

Knitorious (172/365)
Richmond's Knitorious M.E.G. hit Byrd Park, transforming a blah bench by the pond into a colorful work of art. Like she says on her Facebook page, go out and see it while you can, kids! Ralph enjoyed taking a break from the morning to watch the ducks float by from his perch on the fanciest bench in the park.

Birthday (166/365)
Ralph helped himself to the first piece of cake today - ice cream cake at that! Woohoo! It was yummy!

Comfort. (165/365)
Guess who came to celebrate my birthday tonight?! Yep, that's Ralph's BFF, Swiper the Fox. They had fun playing while the adults had fun catching up. So happy to see those of you who could make it out to my pre-birthday dinner!
