It’s Friday the 13th. Some people are superstitious about this date. Me? I think it was just an excuse to make some bad movies. In any case, I’m not going inside the narrow tunnel in today’s jigsaw puzzle. Too many earthquakes lately. Enjoy the puzzle, and don’t let any black cats cross your path.
Thursday’s Daily Jigsaw Puzzle I guess you could call today’s jigsaw puzzle a baby castle. Actually, it is a lookout tower in the Channel Islands, and it dates back to World War two. I prefer to think of it as a starter castle.
I had an uncle who passed away a few years ago. Over fifty years ago he bought a farm of about twenty two acres where he raised his family of eleven kids. We used to go there every year for a family reunion. I also visited him there every once in a while, where he […]
There is a park near the hotel I’m staying at, so I took a walk through it to stretch my legs. The view sort of reminded me of the photograph in today’s jigsaw puzzle, so I picked it out. I’m not saying it is tough, but it took me an hour to work the medium […]
Well, I’m away from home for a few days. Sitting poolside sure beats working. So I wanted you to see what I’m enjoying, so I put a picture of the pool in today’s jigsaw puzzle. Sadly, there’s not a bikini to be seen anywhere. Sigh. At least the hotel has HBO.
Happy Mother’s Day! It is a day to honor mothers and motherhood. Mother’s day actually has ties back to ancient festivals, but it’s modern counterpart started in 1870. It is actually celebrated on different days around the world. Many of the dates were chosen to correspond with existing celebrations honoring mothers and motherhood. You can […]
These they would display proudly so friends would see how beautiful their daughters were, in hopes they would send a suitor their way.
Today’s jig saw puzzle has a mother with her daughter out picking little green apples. It’s a fun thing to do, especially if you can eat the apples, or can cook them into a nice pie. Oh, make sure your speakers are on.
Today’s jigsaw puzzle is of a young mother and her two small children out shopping. Mothers often take their kids when they go out. Sometimes kids are great and well behaved. Sometimes not so much. Which probably explains why she’s buying wine by the case. (I swear I did not notice the bottles until after […]
Carnations are always a nice gift to give, although I’ve always wondered how they managed to evaporate milk from them. I guess that is one of those great mysteries that I’ll never figure out. Today’s jigsaw puzzle is a nice photograph of carnations, if you haven’t already guessed.
I was a little hard pressed to come up with a mother’s day type picture for today’s jigsaw puzzle, (anyone noticing a theme here?) until I found this one that, by a slight – meaning large, stretch of the imagination, shows how moms know that little kids like to play in the dirt, and that […]
For Monday’s jigsaw puzzle, we present another symbol of motherhood, a baby carriage. You know, the think you put your kid in so he can squeal and cry while you are out trying to shop for groceries, or visit friends. Just kidding. Babies squeal and cry no matter where you are. It is all part […]
Mother’s day is only a week away. How many of you are going to a restaurant to celebrate? This year, I’m going all out. I will be taking my wife out to eat, and to celebrate her day it’s nothing but the best! We’ll be skipping the dollar menu entirely this year.
Saturday’s Daily Jigsaw Puzzle I admit it, I’m addicted to pistachios. I like the ones still in the shell, that you get to crack the rest of the way open. It makes them last longer. I don’t know why they dye them red sometimes. I never really cared for it much. It always turned my […]
Warm weather is here, and the weekend is shaping up to look very nice. I think I’ll spend some time hanging out at the pool. Care to join me? As you can tell by the picture in today’s jigsaw puzzle, it isn’t very crowded, so bring a friend or two. I’ve got plenty of towels, […]
My wife has been working in the garden all week, getting it ready to go and planting things. One of her major crops is tomatoes. I like tomatoes, as long as they come in the form of catchup, spaghetti sauce, or otherwise cooked with meat so they no longer resemble tomatoes.
Ashley wrote to tell me she always has a cup of coffee while playing my jigsaw puzzles in the mornings. She also asked for one a little tougher than usual. You might want to have an extra cup of coffee before starting this jigsaw puzzle. It’s a tough one, and it is all about coffee […]
Think about having a nice dinner for two outside where the weather is pleasantly warm and a nice, slow breeze is keeping you from getting too hot. Yes, it’s starting to get to be that time of year again. Until the bugs come out, that is. The outside dining is a nice change of pace […]
Da dum da dum… Long story short, I was flipping around the channels when I hit a show where this little girl was pretending to be a bride. She was wearing a dress about twenty sizes too large for her, and was holding up one of those back scrubbers on a handle as the bouquet. […]
It is time for an abstract jigsaw puzzle. This one is called ‘Silk Twist.’ Enjoy, and have a nice Sunday. It’s a good day for a picnic.
Yes, I know, it’s another animal jigsaw puzzle. I’m just trying to cover the gauntlet of classes of creatures. Mammals, reptiles, politicians, etc. I’d like to have an iguana, but my cats would probably object to it. Then again, if I got a politician, I’d have to get a really mean dog, too. Sorry if […]
