Been awhile since I had a Salty Dog.

How do you make a Salty Dog? I assume with a ruby red grapefruit!

Salty Dog, Gin or Vodka and grapefruit juice in a highball glass with a salted rim. Dates back to the 1920's.
or, Perro Salado (Tequila Salty Dog); (snip) "This is a Tex-Mex version of the salty dog. If you have access to a sweet Texas red grapefruit, like Ruby-Sweets or Rio Stars, then it's recommended you use it in in this recipe."

Be well.

HoneyBells on the way here. May post when they arrive.

Do share your honeybells! I have no idea what they look like.

Dad's favorite, so I always think of him at this time of the year.

Hope driver can find my house; it's not easy.

Every picture is poetry. Nature and the farmers and you - what a team. Thanks for bringing the beauty all the way across the country, Peggy.

Your words are quite poetic too! I appreciate them very much.

I think you know how I am about sharing!

The halved grapefruit is a mouth-watering sight.

I had the same reaction as yours, when I spotted it today! I couldn't get my camera turned on fast enough!

Unfortunately, my medications keep me from consuming them. Photographing them is almost as good, and it won't make me sick!

I love the variety of fruit, vegetables and flowers. I love the color of the calla lily. Thank you, Peggy, for posting them. They radiate serenity.

I love getting so much variety from this market. It's great to mix things up! And yes, I feel serene when I see them.

I'd never seen a calla lily that color before. It said "Take my picture!" So I did.

Ty for sharing with us!

That grapefruit looks so yummy! And such lovely flowers!

Now, you know how I am about sharing! Sharing is part of my DNA.

I love the grapefruit's color and the flowers are simply amazing.

I think of you & your lovely pix each time I was one!

We love you for your sharing nature, Peggy.

It means a lot to me to be held in such high regard in this group. We truly are a family!

Mathematicians' favorite vegetable ?

(aka fractal broccoli)

I'd never heard of this vegetable, till my mom brought one home from our Green Market.
My jaw dropped!

I had already learned about fractals in the mid 1980's. More knowledge boosted by a exhibit on Art & Computers at the IBM building in NYC. They had a museum on the first floor.
Amongst items they had some on fractals, and CGI imagdry in movie making.

But then...
There was this big monitor w 3 items.
"Fly around _____ some city" digital imaging. Ok.
Restoration of an ?Old Masters painting. OK.

Zoom The Mandelbrot Set....
Oh, what's that? So I went and took a look, and spent the next 4 visits "glued" to the monitor displaying this ever unfolding amazing panorama.
Last day I had to "share" it with all the IBM'rs who'd just gotten the ?Scientific American article on ?fractals, AND the Mandelbrot Set; and found out there was a computer generating it right downstairs! And as I mentioned this was the last day of the exhibit.

Thus began a nearly 40 visual love affair! Blessing on the internet, and those who have the abilty for showing so many different zooms!

Are those green, violet micro greens, or tiny flowers? Nice visual texture!

And, oh, the first time my mom brought home a romanesque ?cauliflower ~ wow!
Very fractally!
If you have never zoom(ed) the Mandelbrot Set...
As a highly visual person you must
treat yourself to it's wonders!
(I'm an artist, (former) designer, and photographer)
If you haven't just copy & paste the under lined phrase, but use zoom, not zoomed. 👍
It's still not the most common thing. I sort of stumbled on it back in ?86 at a special IBM exhibit.

If you have, and were amazed I hope we'll share a few sentences extorting it's [imho] astonishing beauty at some point.
