Dahlias from the CSA this week. Aren't you glad that Christopher Columbus discovered America on a Monday so we get a three day weekend? Enjoy!

My plate of spaghetti with pieces of bright red beets casually tossed in resulted in the very same color as your dahlia. It would make pretty sock yarn. Yeah, I know I'm weird!

We never get Columbus Day off in my line of work. Couldn't he have discovered it over a whole week or something? ;)

It's wonderful that all the great discoverers and leader's did their great thing, were born or died on mondays, it sooo convenient ;) ;)
