Funnel Cloud
I was stuck in traffic during strong thunderstorms in Atlanta this evening, and I saw a funnel cloud form and dissipate. I guess this is what they call pre-tornadic activity; as far as I know, we didn't have any tornados in Atlanta.

First Daylily of the Season
My late mom raised daylilies, and her garden was spectacular in May and June. We have some of her plants, and I always enjoy the few weeks when the daylilies are in bloom.

Storm Damage
The weather system that brought tornadoes to the Southeast a few days ago mostly missed us here in Atlanta, but it brought part of a tree down on a neighbor's roof.

Tomatillos
Two pounds of the smaller, greener, tarter Mexican cousin of the tomato; they're covered with a papery husk. I used them to prepare chicken with tomatillo, chipotle and brown sugar sauce. It turned out pretty good.

Bulloch Hall
A prototypical Southern planter's Greek Revival house in Roswell, Georgia. Bulloch Hall was built in 1839 (largely with slave labor, I presume) for Major James Stephens Bulloch. His daughter was Martha Bulloch Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt's mother.

The Little Blue Frog
