Y is for Yellow Fruits and Vegetables

 or What Pictures Do I Happen to Have of Yellow Fruits and Vegetables.

I've made almost to the end of this blogging challenge. Yay! But I must admit that I'm running low on energy and motivation, so here is an Instagram-type post. 😏

Gold potatoes for soup


Bananas. We eat these mostly with cereal.


Pears from our tree 


Yellow zucchini


Peaches from a tree at our old house. I guess the yellow was more on the inside.

Yellow watermelon from Uncle Billy's garden


Yellow squash blossom from last year.


Corn is, perhaps, my favorite summer vegetable along with tomatoes.


Crook neck squash (and potatoes and mushrooms)


Corn and Beans pattern on barn quilt

Y is for Yellow



Y is for Yellow around and about the house.



I think this banana is perfectly ripe. My father would have agreed, but my mother would have said that it was almost rotten. Ward will eat them green or very ripe. What's your banana preference?


This is a very positive picture book about the possibilities of a day. Good pictures and simple words for kids and also, a great message for adults and kids alike. It's one of my favorites.


I snatched this magnet from my mother's refrigerator when we were cleaning out her house. Blue and Yellow (gold) are WV's state colors.


Double sided tape always says school projects to me. Many posters were made with this kind of tape at our house when Wally and Theo were in school. BTW, I learned from all of them that you get what you pay for with DS tape.


Speaking of school, these are scissors that Theo used in third grade. The pen on top is my new favorite. It writes with smooth purple ink.


This is one of my gardening reference books. Like most of the Dummies books, it gives good information in a clear, easy to read style. 


Dandelion and a tiny ant enjoying its nectar. Dandelions are so pretty. I wonder when it was decided that they were a weed?


Leaf scoops. These are handy for picking up any kind of debris around the yard. We bought them on an impulse several years ago and have never regretted it.


The groundcover, yellow lanium, is in bloom. With its varigeited leaves and yellow blooms I think it is quite pretty.

2.  A squash from Uncle Billy's garden.

3. What Ward and I have for breakfast most mornings.

4. The exercise ball that is used more as a foot rest than for exercising.

5. The burro from Guatemala.

6. The flashlight that Theo keeps beside his bed in case of emergency.

7. My favorite topping, along with onions, for a hot dog.

8.  Maryland's state flower.

9. Currently, our favorite cookbook.

10. A hot wheels car that Wally used to race across the floor.
