“The Artful Dodger“ #20

Posted on June 26, 2023June 26, 2023 by Neal Saye

A blog category about finding “art” in unexpected places and situations.

One of my Father’s Day gifts this year was a beautiful box of nuts and dried fruit.

I made a yummy trail mix out of the nuts and some of the chopped-up dried fruit. (OK, maybe with one bag of plain M&Ms thrown in for good measure.)

And then, this morning for breakfast, Robert had bought some fresh cantaloupe. When I saw it on my saucer, I realized it was frowning at me, but his face was sadly incomplete.

Dried fruit to the rescue. Two dried plums and a beautiful, sweet green kiwi for the nose.

Happy breakfast for all!

Shhh … Silent Sunday

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. Getting all cultured, attending the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra’s 2023 Season Finale with incredible first-year-in-Atlanta conductor Nathalie Stutzmann.

“Bolero” was stunningly, movingly beautiful.

2. Fresh farm peaches from Ellijay, GA. Sweet and juicy (sorta like “Bolero”)!

3. Being thankful for my eyesight.

4. Seeing the world premiere of circus-based musical “Water for Elephants” at the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta. I loved the novel and was uber excited to hear that it was coming out as a play.

5. Celebrating Robert’s birthday (the young upstart) at Truva, a terrific little Turkish restaurant in the hip Virginia Highland neighborhood near Midtown Atlanta.
