     Darla over at

had several things to say about
my post 
https://pam-lifethroughmyeyes.blogspot.com/2021/09/are-you-southern-ball-game-human.html
Darla, I am not a fan of 
Gelatin salads 
either.
A Coco Cola cake
is a basic chocolate
cake but you add coke to it.
I have eaten this.

White gravy is gravy
made with milk.
I never put beef in mine but
you can make it up when 
having breakfast and I have
put pieces of sausage in mine. 

Now to get into the 
real question~

What is poke salad?
Well, it is a leave, from 
a WEED, AKA the pokeweed,
proper name is 
Phytolacca americana.
Its poisonous. 
You have to be very
careful when cooking.
I have never eaten this.

Ever hear Elvis sing 
Polk Salad Annie?

haha
it is a bean and rice dish.

Have I covered those questions?

Now to move on to another
comment that Darla left
on another post.

"Thank you for aspiring to live and bringing
 your light into the world. It would be darker
 without you. ~hugs~ That painted trio is gorgeous!"

Thank you so much. You are
so sweet.

My sedum is blooming!



Love this stuff.

I love it when you expound on your readers questions. I used to make the best chicken gravy ever. My dad loved my fried chicken and chicken gravy. Neither was good for your, but we didn't know that back then.

Have a fabulous day, Pam. Scritches to the furbabes. ♥

I'd be tempted to try a coco cola cake, but I won't risk the caffeine.

Thanks for these answers! ~hugs~ I have dragons blood sedum and autumn joy sedum which cross pollinated. :) I'll have to get some pictures on the next sunny day. And I'm with you on anticipating fall leaf colors. Our buckeye tree goes straight from green to brown. Oh, well. Love you, lady. You rock.

The Rest of Today

After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after him. I had to snap a pic of Kelley making sure that I got

Well, what was I thinking? HAHA After laying on my couch in so much pain all summer, I knew moving closer to  Amber was the thing to do, The timing of finding my dream home was off. However, Two days of Open House and I have a contract. Selling as is, minor repairs.  Inspection to be done after  the work in the  den and BR is done. The process of getting here while just a couple of weeks of healing was a challenge. My daughter was a big  help weekend before  last. I just collect to many projects that I  never get around to and that has to stop. I have to say, last time  was easier, I had moved into my childhood home before I sold the other, so it was empty when sold. EASIER. I hate moving so close to Christmas but it is  what it is. Fall seems to have made it to us the past week. I am surprised, we were losing so many leaves due to no rain,  glad to have some color. In between packing, cleaning, repairs and life in general, I have  managed to do a few things. I taught a paint class an
