Storms make trees take deeper roots.
Let us all stand our ground and deepen our roots for liberty and the elimination of a crooked leader and all his cronies and VOTE him out. Even one tiny infraction like these of a president at any other time would have had him out at once!
Strange and disturbing world that allows these crimes to now be committed daily.
But enough of graft and greed. Perhaps a few Rome shots will lighten your Monday.

Best artichoke preppers in Rome

MORE TO COME TODAY!!
Yum, those artichokes look amazeballs, Loulou!
Oh, they are, they are and so good for us.
My Mom used to make artichokes for us once in a while – pulling off the leaves and dipping in hot butter….a treat. Fried? Sounds amazing. Thanks for the photos – much preferred over thinking about reality!
Hugs, Pam
Well, for us, too, but mama is an activist and every little bit may help…just wants all to be informed of the FACTS.Cost of living is up over 3%…huge. Families cannot afford so many things now with salaries the way they are. And it’s all T’s fault. While he makes 9,000,000,000…..
Wonderful photos- especially the one of you LouLou. XO
Awww. Mama was just missing me a bit…
We aren’t too familiar with artichokes…that first picture we thought maybe they were dissecting a brain.
HA HA HA they are actually brain FOOD.
I would love to see Rome and yes, lots of change in the U.S.!
