Tetters, what is this?
Mart, the calico, Cali, is a porch cat. Photos of a sleeping cat just has so little interest.
Sometimes hard work and generosity pays off in--jam! She was most likely as pleased to give the jar as you were to receive it.
She said she missed me. It would have been comforting except she was reloading.
Zigs, a recliner, flat screen TV, and a small refrigerator--you and the cacti will have a "man cave"! Actually that is very impressive and I'm...
Weeded and tied up tomatoes. The Celebrities are full of blossoms, and we have small bell peppers! I took a look at the basil and think I'd best...
Squirrels can get a buzz on from maple seeds (samaras). Up north I went out one morning and there were several squirrels sitting in the yard,...
The news is reporting a serious wildfire in Spain. I do hope Odif is safe. California is still burning, and the vineyards are acting as fire...
My grandmother made "poke salat" from young poke leaves. Fortunately I was too young to have that inflicted on me. I remember daddy saying that it...

Happy Birthday! I hope your day at the coast was marvelous, and that you enjoyed every moment.
Tonight it's tomato and basil quiche with a chilled asparagus salad. Saturday dinners are usually very simple, unless it's a holiday. On Groundhog...
Tetters, the affect for us would be minimal. Mostly the scheduled payments would be delayed, but without penalty. I'd really miss reading...
Mart, so happy to help identify your butterfly! Swallowtails lay eggs on parsley, dill, and lantana. I'd bet you have all three in your garden/yard!
[ATTACH] Mart, could you have Black Swallowtails? They are lovely and very large. Some have more blue than others (don't ask me why!).
KK, Bird's Ely is a native plant here. They pop up everywhere since the mockingbirds (a bird notorious for having no taste buds) love them and...
