Remember the Village Food Diary...
Well now...here's a peek at what I ate today...
I had coffee and a Banana Pecan Muffin
for breakfast at 6:00.
I few almonds and dark chocolate around 9:00.
For lunch at noon, we had vegetarian chili...
with peanut butter sandwiches...and
a crushed granola bar and coconut over
slices of nectarine .
Then...
a biscuit with some mixed berry spread and
a cup of green tea was a snack around 3:00.
About 6:00 I had cranberry flavored water..
with Cheddar cheese on
Well that's it...certainly not as interesting as the
or these deer seen running through the field!

Great post!
And I like how you combined it into your regular post! (I did too, but not nice and smoothly like you did!).
Love ALL the photos! Even the food ones! And now I feel like eating again! But I won't I'm tired and I need to get up and out early again tomorrow morning so I'll go to bed after this.
Loved, loved, loved, the knot hole pictures (Alivia, Andrew's eye, and the pretty scene too)!
Great post, Wanda!
Love, Eileen
PS ~ I'm thinking of copying your weekly food posts and try to eat like that!
I think you should continue yours even when the week is over! It really is interesting!
That 'comment deleted' was my fault..." Eye kan't spel"....
I know you must grow tired of hearing me say how wonderful your photos and your blog are....but I just don't know how else to say it, Wanda. Everything is so peaceful...the words and the photographs flow....like a brook through a meadow...just wonderful, Wanda.
Hello Wanda, I love the way the little deer was wagging its tail at us. The vine on the tree is an awesome shot. I really love the knothole photos, too (the hole looks a bit like a heart!). Since I just had some ice cream (breaking my rule about no eating after 8), your food didn't temp me tonight. I'll just say sweet dreams...
Your posts are so delightful, your pictures are always lovely. The knothole ones are exceptional.
I always leave your blog with a smile.
Sunny :)
Very nice Wanda. I see Fall is in the air in your parts. I have to wait at least another month ... sigh ...
Hi Wanda, I loved Andrew's eye through the knot hole....and then the scene you captured through it was beautiful.
Another calming post my friend, I could spend so much time in your wonderland.....very healthy eating habits my friend, now I'm really impressed. Luv ya.....:-) Hugs
Wanda - feel like I've spent part of the day with you. The way you present your food is lovely. I would love to eat my main meal at noon, but it does not fit with my husband's schedule. One day when he retires, I hope.
The knot hole pictures are great. Thanks for all you share.
I, too, was wowed by the knot-hole "frame".
And the nectarine presentation was memorable - I like the crumbled granola bar idea and might never have thought of it without seeing it!
I was educated by many of your pictures and commentary - again!
I just love your creativity with shots. The one looking up the tree I found awesome and dizzing but the knot hole was brilliant.
Love your deer.
Beautiful as usual Wanda. And it appears that someone is watching their cholesterol! Very Good Wanda!
Love Di
Here I am again, Poppin in when I should be doing a bazillion things, but one must get refreshed and yours is certainly a refreshing spot to be!!
LOVED that knot hole thing you did...You are not only a great photographer but ever so creative...PLEASE keep it up!
The before and after pictures are wonderful, like watching the seasons change in the most wonderful way...you do so much to make your posts so wonderful.
Your food is always scrumptious...think you should open up a health spa and people could lose weight and still have these eye appealing and healthy meals!
Do you get all your fruit and veggies from a local market?
blessings and hugs,
marcy
I just read your comment on Teresa's blog (about everyone getting tired of photographing their meals). Well, I'm getting tired of photographing the garbage that I put into my body daily (plus, it's embarrassing!), but I love coming and looking at and reading what you eat each day! I'm starting a petition among the villagers for Wanda to continue posting her meals each day!!
I'm really going to miss this side of you when the week is up!
When is it up anyway, Tuesday? I forget when we started.
And now we have to go through the holiday weekend, and now you will all get to see how REALLY bad I am! Oh well.
Love you!
Love your photos!
Love your diet!
Love your posts!
Love your blog!
Eileen
Okay. I just have to ask. What kind of camera do you use. Are you a professional photographer?
I am sounding like a broken record. Beautiful, gorgeous, incredible, wonderful . . . beautiful, gorgeous, incredible, wonderful . . .
Hi Wanda,
I want to eat like you too! So yummy and really simple ..hey, I would love your bicuit recipe, and the vegetarian chili one too!
I loved how you combined your day with the food diary, and I love learning about the way others eat, and about how I eat too. Makes me think....
I love the eye in the knot in the fence, that is such a cool photo...and I loved seeing how things are progressing in your world. ((((HUGS)))) T 555
HI WANDA -
Oh how I love walking with you about your amazing nature-land. Each image is so lovely and so pure. And your food pictures? Your creations are so elegant and diverse and the presentation is as if I am seeing a sample of dishes from a fine unique cafe' or bistro..... mmmmmmmmm
Enjoy your world -
Love Gail'
peace.....
Wanda I do agree with you,We do take some shots that are soooo simular..I love reading your blog..It really is relaxing,and feels like I went on the trip with you..great shots...take care..
Hi Wanda,
It was so relaxing coming to your blog after a day of teaching. I like seeing those deer running in the field. How you captured the eye in the fence is quite something. All your food,always makes me hungry.
Have a great weekend.
Take care.
AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING once again. You have such an imagination with your shots they are like poetry and so it your post. Every post is like poetry to me. I so enjoy visiting each day!
Quick, send directions. I'll be there at 6am tomorrow. I'll be very quiet and just sit in the kitchen waiting for the next snicksnack. :)
Sweet memories of spring and early summer... now onto autumn...
yummilicious food!!!
I watched the deer three times... miss our little family that visited here.
Wanda, have a wonderful weekend!
All the best, Maria
Hi Wanda! I loved the knot-hole picture...NICE!!!
I love all your nature pictures..they make me feel like I'm going on a nature walk...
Your chili looks yummy...I think I'll fix some chili tomorrow..that put me in the mood for some :)
Have a Great Weekend !!!
Love, Jerelene
Some lovely pictures, I especially like the one through the knot hole. The flower of the Blackberry Lily is really beautiful and the berries are attractive too - it seems to be looking autumnal early everywhere this year.
Not only do I LOVE to go walking with you, but sitting at your table is a feast too! You're so much like me, you do not want just any FOOD on your plate, you want it to look pretty and colorful too eh? A beautiful glass, a pretty plate, I love that. We eat with our eyes as much as with our tastebuds, at least, you and I do that!!
Dark chocolate, another one of my favorites, yum.
You inspire me Wanda, tim and time again!!
Have a great weekend!
THANK YOU so much for the recipes!!! Ihave printed them all, and I want to try the buttermilk biscuits straight away!! I'll be thinking of you when I smell them!!
Hello Wanda
Life is changing with the seasons, autumn drifting closer now...
I have to admit to consuming a lot more food per day than you...
I have a very wholesome breakfast, a substantial lunch and a good dinner ...with desert...
I like the chilli dish. I haven't made that for yonks. I have so many tomatoes in the fridge and it's market morning again tomorrow so I think tonight will be tomato based - perhaps I can make chilli beans with lots of tomatoes...I will go and check the pantry for beans...
Yesterday I remembered that my Dad loved to eat cheese with jam on bread...of course we all used to say Yuuuuuuuuuuuck... but I imagine if the jam is not as sweet I could change my mind...
Happy days Wanda
They're in the oven NOW!! Rising!! Ooooh, I'm sooo excited!! Baking something for breakfast is so much fun!!Can't wait to taste one!!
Delicious Wanda!!
You made my day!
Wanda!! The food you have tempts me no end. When is this food weak getting over!! I also want to have some of that :)
I had ice cream at Ghirardelli's once and it was heaven!!
P.S I actually love all these food pictures you and Bernie put up :)
I loved June's comment!! And I'm going to 'ditto' it!
And where's your food post???
How am I going to learn if you won't teach?! Ugh!
Well, I'm here to copy what has been posted, thank you.
I tried to do a before and after shot of dogwood flowers and then the bright red berries but it has been very dry and the berries look awful. Oh well. Great great photos -- love the eye in the knothole. My word is "sonspolo" Bet PA Wild Woman could have had some fun with that one
Great photos. I love those two looking up the tree. That's one tall tree. The food looks delicious!! Especially that Chili and PB&J. YUM! Have a wonderful Sunday.
Cindy
Late summer - it has its own distinct beauty. The fields, the trees, and soon we say good-bye to birds (think the robins are already gone). Nice to appreciate it all. Including your meals... really scrumptiouos.
