ABC WEDNESDAY--"E" is for "eye-catching"

 I just had to get this lady's photo.  She's selling cabbages and other vegetables on the open market near me.  If you've been reading my blog recently, the temperatures have been really high, and one folk remedy for the heat is to place a cabbage leaf on your head....  It has a cooling effect, so they say. Same holds true for nursing mothers who are experiencing bouts of mastitis....though you place the cabbage leaf elsewhere.

Up for grabs?

I think someone left these old shoes for someone to take, though I was a bit puzzled, since they're on the street by a doorstep, and usually such things are left near trash bins on the street.

Crisp, clean, and waiting

Had lunch the other day at my favorite restaurant for outdoor lunches, Vuk. My friend and I were early, but the tables were already set with crisp, clean, white tablecloths and napkins, while this pile stood waiting.

SKYWATCH--Serbian countryside: Šumadija

Šumadija is a region in central Serbia.  This area used to be covered in thick forest,
(Šuma).

This is another cell phone shot....  Do you know that yesterday here it was 43 degrees Celsius?  That's about  109 degrees....darn hot.

Dimpled

 Could have used these baby dimples for a D on yesterday's ABC Wednesday post....  My little grandson's backside, perched on my daughter's arm.

ABC WEDNESDAY--"D" is for "deceased"

A cell phone photo I took in a cemetery in Gornje Grbice, near Kragujevac, where I attended the funeral of a very good friend's mother. It always saddens me to see neglected graves.

Pick one!

It's been hot here.  My little grandson was attracted by these water toys, sold by a lady on a bench in Tasmajdan Park.  We bought him the dark-green, fat frog.  Which one would you take?

Ready to jump or....?

Passers-by, beware!

Is this little 'cherub' preparing

 to jump on you

or

to something-else on you?

SUNDAY BRIDGES--Red Hot Chili Peppers "Under the Bridge"

Well, here I am stretching it again a bit (a lot).  This gorgeous, deadly-hot chili pepper was given to me at the open market the other day instead of some small change when I bought some tomatoes.

I didn't have a post for Louis La Vache's SUNDAY BRIDGES, so I figured a Google with "Pepper Bridge" might do the trick, and lo and behold, up came the song and group in the title.

Weekend Reflections--two types of mineral water

The bubbles on the bottle on the left are from a bubbly mineral water, and the reflections on the right are from a non-bubbly water!

SKYWATCH--Keep an eye on those trees

Noticed these trees while walking downtown. I hope nobody gets close enough up there on the terrace to give those pots a shove.
