road-side fruit stand....

Just got home..
Been a very busy morning....there's a livestock auction going on this morning....I made coffee for all the cowboys....lol.....if there's one thing i do know, it's that cowboys gotta have their coffee!...Look at the cowboys in my family.....however me, a cowgirl, i can't drink coffee.....it makes me jittery...and i don't like that...I don't know how Grandpa can drink all that coffee at his age...wow.

Stopped by the fruit stand this morning after the auction and picked out some fruit...It smells so good in those stands!..They had so many fruits/vegetables and they were all RIPE...yep, that's right they were not hot-house grown fruits...they had to have bought them in another state, because here in Oklahoma the drought is killing every thing "garden-tastic"(as Dad would call it..lol.)

I saw Amy there and we were laughing about her brother,we laughed so bad that she dropped her bag of peaches and they rolled everywhere!...LOL!...hope they didn't get ruined from the tumble....Hi Amy! ;p

You can't buy any fruits/vegetables ripe, or any good in the local grocery stores..just old moldy, over ripe, green, over priced crap..haha...and our garden is dead now from the horrible heat/drought....but the okra is still kicking...maybe we will be able to freeze some for fried okra sometime..love that stuff...

I bought a watermelon,cantaloupes,peaches,cherries....fruit is so good in the summer..it's just all apart of summer.It would seem wrong without stopping by the fruit stand or catching the farmer's market this time of year.....i like how they put your stuff in a paper bag always...yes, i'm a dork...lol.

Kisses.
