I took some pictures of the wisteria at the park, it looked beautiful the way it was draped over the trees.
And, remember I mentioned I stopped at the Goodwill store? Well, this is what I found ~ an old binder recipe book called "Green Thumbs and Golden Spoons: Favorite Recipes of the Auraca Herbarists". I wasn't sure what Auraca Herbarists were, so when I got home I googled it and found out it's an Herb Society affiliated with Cornell University where they study and discuss the past, the culture, and the growth of herbs. They have monthly meetings and a lot of the members volunteer at plantations.
This book has 235 pages of recipes, and also little verses and quotes about herbs. I can't wait to try some of the recipes!
And instead of the golden spoons, I found some copper spoons ~ measuring spoons. Aren't they great? I collect copper and these will go in the kitchen with all the other copper that I have.
I think I will make a cup of coffee now and look through my Green Thumbs and Golden Spoons cookbook. Something good might be on the menu tonight!
Have a great day everyone!

Hi Donna
Such lovely photos of the park. The wisteria this time of year is so beautiful even if it looks like it's killing some of the trees. That cookbook looks very interesting. Let us know if you come across any really good recipes.

Of course, Donna, any good recipes must be shared with your pals (please?)

Hi Donna! So nice to find your blog! I love the beautiful wisteria that you photographed. I was visiting my Mother just today and her neighbor had several extremely tall trees that were just dripping in wonderful wisteria! I wish I had taken my camera along with me because I so much wanted to take a photo of it to share on my blog. Your photos are beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Cool cookbook, Mom, and I love the copper spoons!!
