A to Z Chat

[Eyvonne]

We decided to have a "staycation" at home, after reading the above regarding snakes, bugs, alligators, etc.

[Mansi]

eXiting home is not an option until the chat ends

[Laura]

You know, I saw a spider in my house today and so the bugs are even at home!

[Barbara]

Zebra longhorn beetles are common in the U.S.

[Grace =^_^=]

Ants can be a nuisance when you're having a picnic.

[Laura]

But even worse if they get into the house.

[Barbara]

Can you believe my package of Oreos was overtaken by ants?

[Grace =^_^=]

Donuts at the cafe have rainbow sprinkles on them for upcoming Pride celebrations.

[Eyvonne]

Eating donuts outside would probably bring more ants.

[Mansi]

Flies also keep on humming near te ears and bother too much

[Grace =^_^=]

Go indoors and enjoy the air conditioned environment.

[Laura]

Found myself in a cemetery today with lots of mosquitos.

[Mansi]

Humming of bees can be heard from a distance.

[Grace =^_^=]

Insects don't seem to be beloved as, say, dogs or cats.

[Mansi]

Just because they trouble us ,sting us and may harm us ,unlike dogs and cats which if given love tend to be loyal .

[Barbara]

Keep in mind that insects pollinate plants and are important in the animal food chain.

[Mansi]

Lots of animals are in the zoo.

[Grace =^_^=]

Monkeys as domestic pets doesn't seem like a good idea.

[Laura]

No, I also hate that they are usually taken as babies from their moms.

[Mansi]

Or,what about keeping birds as pets .

[Grace =^_^=]

Parrots as pets I imagine can be entertaining or loud.

[Luvtoread (Trying to catch up)]

Quiet birds are usually unhappy or sick little creatures.

[Grace =^_^=]

Roosters protect their flock.

[Tammy]

Swans are beautiful, though not pets.

[Grace =^_^=]

Turtles have long lifespans.

[Mansi]

Under 18 children,should not be allowed alone in zoo .

[Laura]

Very often people act so foolish and without care for the animals at zoos.

[Eyvonne]

Water Buffalos are not very interesting to watch at the zoo.

[Mansi]

'X' is a difficult letter to form a sentence.

[Grace =^_^=]

You are correct.

[Laura]

Zebras at the zoo don't have the best grammar..

[Mansi]

Also they can never be taught .

[Grace =^_^=]

Bingo is a fun game, especially if you win.

[Laura]

Cards games are also a fun game night!

[Barbara]

Dominos are very popular in China, Cuba, France and other countries.

[Grace =^_^=]

Ever play poker?

[Mansi]

Family time is best spent playing cards .

[Tammy]

Game night can be fun for all.

[Laura]

Have the best time playing cards with my family.

[Mansi]

In home ,with hot chocolate and cheese balls for all,enjoy the games .

[Barbara]

Joining viewing parties fo movies or TV shows can be fun, especially with snacks.

[Mansi]

Snacks should not be too oily .

[Laura]

Kids can also learn different ways (other than video games) to have fun and socialized, if their family plays card and board games.

[Mansi]

Ludo parties were very common in childhood,are they still there ?

[Barbara]

Me and my friends liked to play Trivial Pursuit, where you need to know a lot of random information.

[Grace =^_^=]

Needless to say, Scrabble is still a game many people enjoy.

[Mansi]

Other common games are carrom and snake and ladders .

[Barbara]

Painting parties can be fun too, and can get your house painted more quickly.

[Grace =^_^=]

Quite a good idea!

[Laura]

Really enjoy a good garden party in the backyard too!
