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 […]
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.
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, […]
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. […]
A DEA agent stops at a dairy farm and talks with the owner. He tells the farmer, ‘I need to inspect your property for illegally grown marijuana.’ The old Farmer says, ‘Okay, but don’t go in that field over there.’ The agent verbally explodes saying, “Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government with […]
When I was in the Navy, my ship stopped in Sri Lanka once, but only long enough to take on some fuel. We didn’t get to go anywhere. I did get to visit a couple of monasteries on my various trips to China, however. It was a great experience, seeing them, and seeing how the […]
OK, no jokes about my sister Suzie and her sales job at the beach. I prefer to think about the various seashells, as well as the organic Ninja throwing star in the picture. It looks like if it didn’t stab you, it could eat you. Just my warped imagination is all.
I was looking for a Subway’s to get something for lunch, when I think I took a wrong turn. It was dark and dank, and all these loud trains kept running by, but nobody was selling meatball subs. There was an old guy with a hat on the ground asking for money, and someone else […]
Tuesday’s Daily Jig Saw Puzzle The force is strong in this one. No! She must learn the ways of the Ninja in order to destroy the warlord Koobi-Kan and seek revenge for her father! A Jedi does not seek revenge, nor does she fight because of emotion. She must master the light saber and learn […]
No, this thing with the yellow tentacles isn’t some creepy alien coming to eat your brains. It is a palm flower, although I’d hate to have one growing out of my hands. It actually grows out of a palm tree, I think. I’m not really sure. In any case, it probably wouldn’t hurt to wear […]
Except for some occasional rain, it is a good time to visit an outdoor cafe. Just try not to get sunburned. Today’s puzzles are a little bit harder than the usual ones, but I think you will still have fun. It’s a good time for a small challenge.
I took my camera out looking for something nice to photograph for a jigsaw puzzle. Then I saw the young girl with the $800 zoom lens. I put my $29 camera back in my pocket and went home. Sigh… Gotta get me a better camera.
I admit it. I like fruit tarts. Actually I like any kind of tarts. Except jalapeno tarts. Other than that, tarts is tarts, especially when they are tart. OK, there’s a joke in here somewhere about the Queen of Tarts, but dang if I can figure it out. Now if you will excuse me, I’m […]
Well, I don’t have any idea who Olive Harvest is or what she did, but I guess she was famous enough for them to make a statue of her. I do know one thing. I’m pretty certain she had nothing to do with Popeye. I took a closer look at the statues, and now I’m […]
Parts of this traditional kitchen in today’s jigsaw puzzle come from the late 18th and early 19th centuries, while parts come from the early 20th century. I just hope the soup in the kettle is from the 21st century. Have you ever cooked anything over an open fire? Other than while camping, that is. I […]
