On the way to Publix, a man is caving a giant tree stump into a Octopus, with tenacles wrapped around a sea horse, a star fish. Its been months. I have to get out of the car to get the head of octopus, will do that when it is done.
For those of you who don't remember, POO is making a post out of Perfectly Ordinary Objects.

| Sunrise from front porch. Joy! |

| I have dropped to much weight and Google gave healthy ways to gain weight, one of which was CORNBREAD. I do love it. I cook, and then scoff a big piece and then put half in a container and half in freezer and between meals it's Happy Cornbread Time~ |

| Standing watching the workers who have been working on the house of 7 cars across the street, I spied with my little green eyes this view of the front porch. Dan moved the bench to make room for the wheel chair ramp.. Now I can see it from inside. |

cornbread is a must have in fall.. its the start of a good season...
ReplyDeleteCaregivers are heroes for sure. 100% this is true words. Love cornbread, it's on my to bake list now that the oven is working again.
ReplyDeleteWood carvers are so skilled, whether in small pieces or on huge tree trunks.
ReplyDeleteI do love Cornbread and I really like it when it has corn and jalapenos in it. yum! You are so right, being a caretaker means you have to be very creative in the way you do things. I do hope you are taking care of yourself and eating right. This is so important not only for Bob but for you. Enjoy your day Sandra.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty incredible work of carving!
ReplyDeleteLove the sunrise and the view from the window.
When I was young we had cornbread but it was called Jonnycake. It was cut in half, put in a bowl, milk poured over it and sprinkled with sugar. I hadn't thought of that for a long time. Did you ever hear it called that or have it served that way?

ReplyDeleteMy word, that is quite some undertaking with the sculpture... mmmmm, I think I can smell that bread... YAM xx
We just had some cornbread too with our homemade bean soup. Big hugs from all of us.
ReplyDeleteI like the carvings of the tree stump and with a stump that size that’s a good way to disguise it. I like your outside sitting area.
ReplyDeleteCaregivers are heroes. It’s hardwork and most don’t fully understand the energy and work it takes unless they are doing it themselves. Continue taking care of you as well and if that means cornbread, then so be it.
I still need to check out those lamps on Amazon! ❤️
The corn bread makes my mouth water. I too love it and tis the season to start making it again. I try not to use the oven too much in hot weather.
ReplyDeletethat is a glorious sunrise
Hugs cecilia
Creative way to deal with the remnants of a big old tree. I'm not sure I've ever used cornmeal (not really traditional here) but I'm using a lot of oats products now...
ReplyDeleteTake care of you, Sandra. It's very hard being a caregiver.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day and week. Big hug to you, scritches to Beau and prayers for Bob. ♥
Cornbread is yummy! It is hard being a caregiver, but you are a superhero. Take care, have a great day!
ReplyDeleteYUM! Cornbread is one of my favorites too! I adore the last line of your post, it fits YOU perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI love cornbread too! And yes, you are a superhero!
ReplyDeleteMmmmm cornbread (with lots of salty butter😃) Oh to have an oven! Great selection of POO - love the pink sky - and I love your remark that caregivers are superheroes in sensible clothes.
ReplyDeleteYes, my friend, you definitely are a Super Hero.
ReplyDeleteLove all of your POO's today.
Ummm, cornbread with butter and honey is Delish !!!
Glad you have found something to help build up your strength and weight again.
(((hugs)))

Oh, your cornbread sounds good. Do you have a special recipe, or do you use Jiffy corn muffin mix? We love cornbread with stews and soups. I use Jiffy, it's quick and easy. My MIL didn't like it because it had sugar in it. She preferred the old southern style with white cornmeal and no sugar. It was okay, but tended to be a little bitter sometimes, although I always ate it when she made it with her homemade soups. Now I want some.
ReplyDeleteI love that carving! That's quite an endeavor! Please keep us updated on it. I love the sunrise and your little view of the garden bench outside your front porch. Looks pretty and sweet...a happy place. And I love the idea of washing dishes by lamplight. I've even done it by candlelight, but then I always have to inspect the dishes in a bright light before I can put them away, because sometimes I miss spots. LOL. But it was fun doing it that way...very relaxing. You are definitely a super hero! Please take care of yourself and keep eating anything that helps you keep some meat on your bones. (((HUGS))) You are very precious to all of us. I enjoyed your POO's today. Fun way to think of it.
You are losing weight and need to gain - I could mail you some. I love cornbread too. You are definitely a SUPER HERO!
ReplyDeleteI love your last quote! And this carving is sure NOT ordinary!! I love your sky shot, especially the palm tree in the center!
ReplyDeleteSculptors are marvels, whether in wood or marble. I like the idea you mention of doing some posts on ordinary objects.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, Tom mentioned me making cornbread just the other day! I'm so glad you're making time to "treat" yourself that way.
ReplyDeleteThat carving is sure something. I just gasp at others' creativity.
Your little wandering lamp looks perfect to do dishes by!
That wood carving is really cool. I like cornbread but haven’t had it in a long time
ReplyDeleteI bake cornbread in a iron skillet...the kind without sugar. I bake the kind with sugar in a regular baking pan...or, since moving here in a foil pan. Roger likes both...or did at one time.
ReplyDeleteI always wanted to try to carve something in a stump but never had the chance.
The carving is amazing and the sky shot a delight. You certainly are a hero.
ReplyDeleteCaregivers are our unsung heroes, angels down here on earth. People amaze me with their artistic talent. Eat lots of cornbread, sounds like you need it. Your sky photo and the others are great.
ReplyDeleteI love your collection of POO. You are a superhero Sandra!
ReplyDeleteYou're a wonderful care giver. That sculpture is pretty amazing. Your cornbread looks good and I'm glad you have a ramp for the wheelchair.
ReplyDeleteI had forgotten what POO meant, so thanks for the reminder. You certainly did a great POO! (BOL, couldn't help myself.) I love that carving and cant wait to see it finished. And that's a wonderful defiition of Super Heroes. Enjoy your cornbread and love to you, Bob and Beau.
ReplyDeleteThat was me, Amy, as Anonymous!
