We watched it fall from the sky and journeyed home, but again my hero was weakened by allergies. Perhaps what we witnessed was not a meteor at all, but a nugget of Krypton.
Psycho Boy tries to regain strength from warm towel.
Alas, he could not recover in time to prepare something so his sidekick took over.

Today:Look for the miraculous in the ordinary. Maybe wish upon a star, or be someone's super hero, you never know who's day you might brighten, just by being you.
I was star gazing and missed out on the craziness! Boo hoo! :/
ReplyDeleteAh, but at least you saw the night sky.
DeleteYAY for shared starbursts, BOO for allergies! I hope he feels better soon!
ReplyDeleteCB thanks you. Ugh another thing CB and I have in common.
DeleteThank you VA!
Hope he recovers well! Your meteor situation also reminds me of the time my love and I were talking on our balcony one night and for some odd reason we both looked at the night sky and saw a meteor! :)
ReplyDeleteThat sweet potato bowl looks delicious! I'd really love to try it since I'm such a sucker for sweet potatoes! Thank you for sharing the recipe.

Thank you Adi! He's getting there. Such a beautiful shared experience.
DeleteIt's really good. Let me know if you like it.
Hope the allergies are easing up for CB. It's cool you got to see the meteor together and that he looks towards the sky. I'm always looking at the sidewalk here so I don't get my foot caught in one of the massive cracks and keel over. (Experience forces me to pay attention.)
ReplyDeleteSweet potatoes and black beans are one of my favorite combos but I've never thought of adding pineapple. Sounds good, though. But did you really add a teaspoon of salt? Seems like a lot, even for chunky salt.
Watch out, Andrea!!!Thank you so much. CB says thank you for your kind words.
DeleteIn Rip's recipe he used a mango, which we don't eat, and cilantro which I lovve but Larry doesn't so I switched it up. Has a little of a pineapple salsa vibe.
Good eye!! More like a 1/4 tsp.salt Will change.
"Still Life With Knife" bahaha
ReplyDeletePoor CB, hope he feels all Superman-ly again soon.
Wish you both many more romantic meteor showers together. :)
:)
DeleteCB said his cape is hanging up and ready to go! ha
Thank you, my friend.
Poor CB, allergies are so awful :( It's great that you both have each other as a back up!
ReplyDeleteyes, I know you suffer from them too, just like me. Thank you, Mandee.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely experience to share. I hope his allergies ease up soon.
ReplyDeleteIt truly was Laura! Thank you, they have. Boo to allergies!
ReplyDeletePeppermint essential oil is good for allergies....Dagnabit that sweet potato bowl looks mighty tasty.
ReplyDeleteOooh I didn't know tha, thank you for the tip. I will pick some up for us!
ReplyDeleteThank you, it is mighty tasty, perfect for after a run.
