Since we had nothing important on our calendar today, we snoozed late this morning, and took the day as it came. By the time I'd done a session on the treadmill and got ready for the day, it was already approaching 11 a.m.
Mother came over about that time, and we went for a walk at the college lake. What a beautiful, sunny day for a stroll. Only a few people were there. A young couple and their preschool boy left the path and went up to a flat area on the lawn where the father tossed a plastic ball to the youngster, who attempted to hit it with a green plastic bat.
A young Hispanic man pushed a baby stroller with a toddler boy in it, while his other child, another preschool boy, pedaled ahead on a four-wheeler toy vehicle.
On our second turn around the path, I spied a cottonmouth snake stretched out in the sun along the bank, head raised. I pointed it out to the Hispanic man, but it slithered into the lake when it sensed the vibrations of the little boy on his pedal toy.
The rest of our day was quiet. For our "fun food" Saturday supper, we fixed bagel pizzas and salad. My pizza recipe uses slices of provolone cheese as a base on bagel halves, each topped with sodium free canned diced tomatoes, a tiny bit of minced garlic from a jar, onions/bell pepper/fresh mushrooms sauteed in Pam, salt-free seasoning blend, dried crushed oregano and basil leaves, pepper, and shredded Monterey Jack cheese. It takes about 20 minutes to bake these yummy treats in a 350 degree oven.
