Bluegrass in the park

They are back again! This duo had just started when I walked up-- I love it when youngsters show promise -- the young girl was singing and playing with the polish of a seasoned pro. And several people had dropped a bill or two in the case to reward their efforts.

A morning song

This good old boy was warbling a few tunes in the park last Saturday. I'm not sure what you'd call that four string instrument of his.

Scads of scones

Cake and Spoon's booth always features a fine array of cinnamon rolls and scones. It's hard to resist these things and sometimes I cave in and buy one.

Homeade jams galore

Grapefruit and vanilla bean jam?  Sounds delicious. I was tempted.

Gluten-free goodies

This lovely young lady who is the "Big Bird" at Blackbird Bakery has found a way to make gluten-free pastries actually taste good.  Her cookbook was reviewed in the NY Times and now she is offering her wares here in town. Linda and I tried one of her goat cheese bite-size pastries and it was amazingly delicious.

Cheese, please.

Our friend Megan at Arro, a restaurant down the street, served us a delightful cheese plate Saturday night before we came home for a well-deserved night of relaxation.

SoCo Mural

This mural is at Doc's on South Congress. I think it appeared recently. Very, um, psychedelic.
