Back down again this morning 😊 I did have a slice of carrot cake after dinner last night but dinner was low cal shrimp, salad & asparagus. Hubby is cooking New York strip on the grill tonight. He had requested baked potatoes but changed his mind and said maybe salad would be better. So salad it is.

He got the veggie garden tilled up this morning. But, then we went into town to pick up a few things. I got some cucumber plants and a tray of marigolds. They're supposed to be good to keep the bugs away. I decided to have a little snack and now I'm not feeling motivated to plant them. The birds distracted me again. There was a cardinal & 2 wrens. I think the wrens had a nest under our deck. It'really pleasant sitting here on our garden patio. The weather is beautiful....sunny & warm with a light breeze.
