The other day my daughter and I went to the Ringling Museum to enjoy the grounds. This was easy to bring along.
The sandwich is rotisserie chicken, homemade hummus, lettuce. Organic orange carrots, avocado slices (which I put on the sandwich) a plum and some tabouleh in the pink flower silicone cup. All in a bed of romaine lettuce that I used to eat the tabouleh.
I made some tabouleh and hummus and have been using it on sandwiches as well as eating in with the Olga's bread I made and lettuce. My husband likes pretty much everything that I make, but he doesn't like cucumbers and I added cucumbers (a small amount diced really small) to the tabouleh. All he could taste was the cukes and he didn't like it. So it's going on everything of mine now! Ha!
The Ca da Zan in John ans Mable Ringling's house and is on the bay front on the museum grounds. I have a few more photos on my Aqua Sunday blog. I love the architecture of this huge mansion. I have so many picture because I can't resist to taking photos here.I have entered this photo with Window Views...and Doors too there are so many more windows and doors to capture here!
There are so many statues all over the grounds.
This time of year Mable's Garden is in full bloom!
I've always liked yellow roses. There were so many. I'll show more later.
Some more of the statues...
I always seem to get feet photos.
This is another one I can't resist taking a photo of, I've posted a different photo I've taken before on Aqua Sunday. It is so interesting how this one has been surrounded by a strangler fig (banyon tree).I guess it wasn't that "quick" of a post!
Wow, that statue being swallowed up by the banyan tree is amazing! What a cool photo.
ReplyDeleteLove the bento and tabbouleh. I haven't made it in a while. Our weather has been unseasonably cool, so I think I'll wait until it warms up.
The food looks delicious and the photos are beautiful! What a nice outing!
