Burst my bubble

Second patio lunch-for-monkeys of the season went swimmingly. Toys were artfully arranged in the pea gravel, pebbles were artfully arranged on top of the water boulder and enormous bubbles were popped with great fervor. This one was almost 10 inches in diameter. No feast of dropped food left for the ants and chipmunks this time. I'm half expecting a riot. Salmon, couscous, veggies and salad did nicely for everyone, including the little ones.

They watched Rio, we watched Babies; one of my favorite movies ever. When they left it was a bit like a big, colorful, bouncy bubble bursting.

Mr. M won BIG in Vegas. On a walkby-onhiswaytoameeting-stuff-a-fiver-into-a-slot-machine-for kicks, he scored $107. Now if he could repeat that 200 times.
