Five Friday Happy Bringers 7/3/26

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts

1. Incredible Spanish and Cuban food at Columbia Restaurant in St. Augustine FL

I first discovered this gem, decades ago, at the original Columbia (which has Flamenco dancers!) in Ybor City (Tampa)

Signature 1905 Salad, Crab Cakes de Cangrejo, Empanadas de Picadillo

2. A week at the beach. Ponte Vedra FL.

3. The ability to feel at peace with the world (occasionally).

4. A big jacuzzi bathtub.

5. Fresh fish from a seafood market.

My Saturday Evening Post: 7/4/26 “What To Do with a Perfect Tomato on the Forth of July”

I was thrilled to find beautiful heirloom tomatoes today at our favorite produce stand here in Savannah, David Produce.

As the photo above suggests, I LOVE tomatoes!

So what should I do with this beauty?

Since we had our traditional holiday hotdog for lunch …

… I decided to tackle something a little different for dinner.

Tomato toast!

It was delicious!

And that’s my Saturday Evening Post.

“Enchanting”

Yesterday, Robert and I spent a delightful couple of hours at the First Coast Cultural Arts Center here in Ponte Vedra FL where we are staying for a week.

We went specifically to see Liz Canali’s work: she creates incredibly beautiful felt sculptures and felt “paintings.”

I LOVE Liz’s horses!

“Walking Away”

Truly enchanting. Thanks, Liz.

We loved her work so much, we walked away with one of her felt lamps.
