I promised Lynn a surprise jigsaw puzzle, and so here it is. Sorry, no clues. Total surprise. Enjoy! (Tomorrow’s jigsaw puzzle: Arch!)
The weather is fantastic, so I’m having my burger outside today. Car to join me? (Tomorrow’s jigsaw puzzle: Surprise!)
Years ago I flew over Death Valley on my way back to California. From 20,000 feet it still looked ridiculously hot. I am using this photograph for today’s jigsaw puzzle because Leigh said she always wanted to see it, but didn’t think she would ever be able to travel there. This is the best I […]
It’s kind of hard to come up with something to say about a hand of blackjack while listening to chants by the Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo de Silos. It’s actually relaxing, and a good way to wind down from a stressful day. I sometimes listen to it when working jigsaw puzzles. Do you listen […]
Today’s jigsaw puzzle is a portrait of a young girl standing in front of some graffiti. I don’t know if she painted it or not, but it still makes for a nice picture. (Tomorrow’s jigsaw puzzle: Winning!)
Have you ever heard the phrase “Easy as apple pie?” This ain’t it. Today’s jigsaw puzzle is not easy. It’s not super tough either, but it will be a challenge for you. We might as well as have something tasty to go along with our puzzles. Got milk? (Tomorrow’s jigsaw puzzle: Graffiti Girl.)
The restaurant in today’s jigsaw puzzle has an old look. Not too old, just not the new style where everything is made of plastic. Sometimes the old places are the best. Great food, good service, reasonable prices. Sometimes you just have to get away from the dollar menu. (Tomorrow’s jigsaw puzzle: Apple Pie.)
Today’s jigsaw puzzle is of a flower called the King’s Mantle. I have no idea what that means or where it came from, but it is a pretty little flower. (Special shout-out to Anne and Marcus – 45 years together! Wow!) (Tomorrow’s jigsaw puzzle: Vintage Restaurant.)
Swans are considered by many to be beautiful birds, but I think they are just ducks dressed up for a party. A young lady who’s last name just so happens to be “Swan” requested a jigsaw puzzle of swans, so here is a family of them. Qvack Qvack! (I think. I don’t think anyone really […]
Today’s jigsaw puzzle is a… is a…. Sorry about that. I got distracted by a shiny object. Today I have a shiny glass building. Well, it’s partially made of glass. But it is shiny. Enjoy. (Tomorrow’s jigsaw puzzle: Swans)
After yesterday’s near impossible jigsaw puzzle, I thought I should take it a little easy on you today. I had some great comments on the paperclips, and a few “how could you?” comments too. This bush looked like it would be not to easy, not too tough, but just right. Enjoy! (Tomorrow’s jigsaw puzzle: Wall […]
Several people have been asking me for a tough jigsaw puzzle, and I finally gave in and made one. Today’s jigsaw puzzle features a bunch of paperclips of different colors, however the pieces all look alike. (Evil grin!!!) I worked the “tough” tough version, and it took me a few hours to do. If it […]
Samantha reminded me that I hadn’t done a jigsaw puzzle of a castle in a while, so I dug around until this one came up. It’s a nice little castle, if a bit small. Guess it’s a starter castle. It does look like you could put the kids in their own tower, though. Enjoy! (Tomorrow’s […]
Happy Memorial Day everyone. Please take a moment to remember those who gave so much for us. The veggies are starting to come in nicely. My wife is doing a great job with the garden this year. Of course, last year was great too! We have some plants growing in plastic buckets to give us […]
The last jigsaw puzzle featuring stained glass was a huge hit. I had requests to put it on the Facebook page, and it is one of the most downloaded puzzles of the last few months. Several people asked me for more stained glass jigsaw puzzles, so I found this one. I think you’ll enjoy it. […]
It’s day one of a three day weekend, and to start it off right, I’m making that good old standby meal – home made pizza! I’ve got all the ingredients ready, including some from our garden. I have a brand new pizza stone (I dropped the old one and turned it into a 10,000 piece […]
I’ve heard that breakfast is supposed to be the most important meal of the day. I don’t know if that is true or not, but I still like to have something in the morning before I head off to work. I guess you could say I cooked up today’s jigsaw puzzle to start the day. […]
Today’s jigsaw puzzle is of colorful feathers, but in two formats this time. You have the standard puzzles like always, and then you have a second set that is very tough as the pieces are all the same shape – no variation. I haven’t done a really tough puzzle in a while but I also […]
Bob told me had accidentally mowed over his wife’s violent flowers. I asked him if the flowers beat each other up, or hung out in the garden tormenting the radishes. “No, no!” he replied. “Purple flowers, but one of those shades that only wives seem to know.” Ah, “Violet flowers!” I said. About that time […]
(Apologizes to my vegetarian friends.) Today’s jigsaw puzzle is some nice Barbeque chicken, Korean style. I had some chicken like this when I was in Korea, and once I put the fire in my mouth out, it was actually pretty tasty! Of course, nothing beats good old Lexington Barbeque like they serve in Lexington, North […]
