Yes, we have flowers planted in our garden. Smelly ones, to be honest. My wife planted them to keep the rabbits out because they keep trying to eat our vegetables. For some reason they like the lettuce and the carrots, but not the broccoli. I figure, if the rabbits won’t eat it, why should I? […]
Big Wheels Keep On Turning Carry me home to see my kin singing songs about the southland. I miss ole bamy once again and I think it’s a sin. Yes, I’m a fan of Lynard Skynard. I was listening to this song when I remembered I had this photograph of an old wagon wheel. That’s […]
My wife’s garden is really starting to come in this year. I got my first strawberry out of it this morning. As part of our ‘get healthy’ plan, I’m eating more salads and fresh vegetables, and thus the picture in today’s jigsaw puzzle. I’m not a fan of cucumbers, but I do like pickles, so […]
“Save the Watchtower! Save the watchtower!” Oh, wait. That’s supposed to be ‘clock tower.’ Sorry about that, Marty.
What is it about sharing some bubbly while soaking in a tub full of bubbly? OK, that probably didn’t make a whole lot of sense. My brain is probably a little waterlogged. Today’s jigsaw puzzle features soap bubbles and champagne. That’s always an interesting combination. Try not to drop any pieces into the water.
Today’s jigsaw puzzle turned out a little darker than I had intended. Either that or my eyes are going on me. I visited a lakeside cottage a few years ago. There were a lot of other people there, so it wasn’t that peaceful. Still, the cottage had a nice reflection in the lake, much as […]
It’s strange that they call this corn “rainbow corn.” It doesn’t look like a rainbow. For starters, there isn’t a pot of gold in sight, nor do I see any short people decked out in green. I had some popcorn the other day that was made from rainbow corn. No, I couldn’t taste the colors […]
This bird in today’s jigsaw puzzle is undecided. She’s on the fence about something, but I’m not really sure what. Perhaps she is thinking about what really happened on Paul Revere‘s ride. Perhaps she is thinking that, because she is a bird, she really should eat that worm, but then again worms are yucky and […]
Do you want to know the best way to spend your lunch time on a Monday? (Besides playing one of my jigsaw puzzles, that is?) Go for a walk in the country, or in the woods. Enjoy nature before it becomes a paid attraction. An open gate is an open invitation. Just watch out for […]
Well, my diet of a few less burgers, fries and chips replaced by a few more fresh vegetables seems to be helping. I have a bit more energy, and I think I’m losing a few pounds. I’ve also added more fruit, including my latest addition, dried blueberries. I found out that blueberries are really good […]
The photograph of this Forum Romanum, or Roman Forum looks more like a painting than a photograph, which is why I picked it for today’s jig saw puzzle. I visited Rome about fifteen years ago, and had a great time playing tourist. The sheer age of these buildings, and the fact they were able to […]
From Wikipedia, “Protea is both the botanical name and the English common name of a genus of flowering plants, sometimes also called sugarbushes.” I hadn’t heard of this kind of flower before, and was surprised to see how many varieties of it existed. Some of them can get quite large, too. Thanks go to Rebecca […]
We have a unique way at work of making people clean their desks off. We play “Musical Cubicles.” It actually works. If I didn’t have to change offices every six months, I’d never see the top of my desk. I’m a bit of a pack-rat. The desktop in today’s jigsaw puzzle is what I am […]
Today was very, very hot. At least it was for us. I know for some people 95 degrees is a mild spring day, but for us here in North Carolina, it’s hot. I made some orange lemon-aid after I got home, to help me cool off. It was good. If I only had some strawberries […]
All dressed up and no place to go. Unless it is to a parade. Horses are always good to use for jigsaw puzzles. Just ask Mr. Ed, of course. (Thank you to those who wrote and said they enjoyed the double puzzles yesterday. Yes, I will do it again sometime.)
Two Jigsaw Puzzles For Monday As a former member of the United States Military, I understand and appreciate the sacrifices so many people have made over the years in the name of freedom. Monday is Memorial Day, and in honor of those who served and died, I offer a jigsaw puzzle from the Vietnam Memorial. […]
Today is a nice day to spend at the beach. I’m sitting in my beach chair, sipping a drink from a coconut, relaxing and enjoying watching the pretty girls walk by, all my cares a thousand miles away. Life is good, and it is always nice to take a break once is a while. I […]
Saturday’s Surprise Jigsaw Puzzle Do you remember breadboxes? I think they were invented a little before sliced bread. My theory is that someone made a loaf of bread too large to fit in a breadbox, so they had to slice off the end to get it to fit. Then they got to eat the leftover […]
Friday’s Daily Jigsaw Puzzle Yesterday’s jigsaw puzzles were of some horses, and sometimes horses pull carts, unless you put the cart before the horse. Or something like that. Anyway, to be fair to the horses, today’s jigsaw puzzle features a cart you pull (or push) by hand. It’s also dirt old. No, I didn’t buy […]
OK, I had Kansas on the MP3 player again, and of course, “Horse with no name” was playing while looking for a photograph to use in today’s jigsaw puzzle, so… Long story short I was going to do a picture of a pineapple when I put two and two together and got five. I was […]
