Alas, there was no Mango Ice Cream this week (unbelievably good, fresh, refreshing...I could go on and on...) but I did try a brand new flavor, Pomegranate! It was sweet, creamy, fruity, just marvelous. But Mango still holds the number one place in my heart. Maybe next week?


We have been watching the growth of Capannari's lush Butterfly Garden for several years now, and this year proves to be a stellar one for those plants chosen to attract large varieties of butterflies. It was absolutely lovely.



We even got a peek at the garden's baby bunny sunning himself....

An oasis of beauty provided by the nice people of Mount Prospect, being enjoyed by two of my very favorite guys.

Lastly, a quick stop at Borders Book Store. Tess finally was able to use her birthday gift card from Aunt Rose..And what did she choose?
After a little browsing...the winner is.....

...."A Tree Grows in Brooklyn"....finally a copy of her very own.
