It's Tuesday

If you had three frivolous wishes to ask a genie, what would they be?

Mine:

For one or all of my books to hit #1 on Amazon.

To have a butler. If for nothing else to remove the lint, cat and dog hairs that jump on my clothes.

The third wish would be a toss up between a maid/cook to help the butler and a Tesla:)

Now...if my wishes were serious--though hitting #1 at Amazon is serious, unfortunately still frivolous, heh---they would be:

For my grandson to be forever cancer free.

For Ukraine to be restored to a peaceful country immediately.

For hunger not to be an issue anywhere in the world. 

AND

Captain Stubby is blooming  😸

 

 

When Captain was alive he would throw himself down on the bottom step of the porch and roll around, enjoying the sun, loving life. After he passed, Frank started doing the same thing, on the same step.  It makes me wonder if Cap left a bit of his essence, his energy or maybe just his scent on the step.

RIP, Cap. 

 

What are your three wishes? 

Got critters that linger?

It's Tuesday

 

What's popping up in your garden?

As you can see I've got hostas  cropping up and....a glove. Have no idea where it came from or how long it's been there but it's firmly entrenched in the ground. Hope there's no hand underneath it......(Cue eerie music.)

 Now that spring has arrived I'm working on my rock garden again.

AND

The first violets and tulips. It seems like no time at all since I was posting last year's first violet sighting. 

 I took several sky shots. *Spoiler alert. They aren't in the same category as Valerie's and Sue.

I love seeing the moon still out in the morning.

 

 This is from the skylight on the porch.

 

That's it for me. Are you enjoying your daybreaks and sunsets? Got flowers popping? Or maybe gloves:)

Weekend Wishes

It's Tuesday

 Greetings Blogger Buds,

What's your favorite easy salad(s)?

I must be part rabbit. I can live on salads, especially if pizza and dessert are thrown in:)

Here's a couple of mine.

Ingredients: apples, coconut, sliced almonds and yogurt.

Ingredients: lettuce, red pepper, eggs, carrots, walnuts, parmesan cheese topped with ranch dressing.

More food

 Has anyone tried these candy bars?  OMG. They are delicious. The name and ingredients didn't really appeal. Then I noticed the high calorie count (ha), and noticed it was a Harry and David Product, and knew it had to be good.

Felt and tile

Instead of throwing this tile piece away, I stuck some felt on the underside and turned it into a hot plate. I'm sure some of you crafters and artists out there could make these and paint some lovely designs on them...if you haven't already:)

Critter pics

What about you blogger buds? Got an easy salad to share? Made hot plates? How's your critters? Tried Moose Munch?
