Today’s sweet story. What would you do? Maybe just let her pig out, haha. Kitchen advice until the right one comes along: the “baby” sprouts in last season’s garlic should NOT be cooked into dishes because they have an acrid flavor, but the garlic around the “babies”can be used. It’s just not as mild...

To thine ownself, be true. Mama loves this when she is flailing about trying to decide what’s right and wrong and up and down and backwards and forwards. Be it know, everyone, that Trump wants a THIRD TERM and is going to attempt to change laws to get it, by paying voters or other devious means. Okay, I’ll stop, but things are getting WAY out...

Well, in place of me you are getting a BEE, haha. We are thankful for bees! Mama finally snapped a pic of our humming polinator and we can’t figure out why he is the only bee around on those fava/feves beans (broad beans), but he has a feast of flowers before him! Maybe he just let it drop that there was no action in our garden this year, haha, so...

Mama forgot to do our Saturday sizzling selfie stuff….whatever…this ought to work…. 
And our monday spark is this: Anyone who thinks he/she/it/they is/are too small to make a difference has never met a honeybee… And even though it is cold here and the chilly winds are strong, mama has big black bumble bee pollenators at work on...
This is how I feel about Mr Sun lately…my little blue cloud is much more comfortable than that chilly garden! Well, we are getting used to this grey weather, but a tiny speck of sun seems to be waiting to break through so let’s pretend it’s May and all the birdiers are peeping and the grass is riz (as in the poem: spring has sprunng, the...

This is an old advertisement for beer, but mama kept it because it makes her happy from time to time, and boy, are we looking for things like THAT! Hope it makes you smile, too.
We are...
Helping prepare the ground for spring planting, haha…. Well, being an angelic kitty, I feel that none of these fill-ins really applies to me since I am an anti-Kryptonite kitty for sure, never misplace anything and only can really fill in No. 3.

And not just any birdies! These birdies live at a marvelous restaurant/vineyard/winery near our little village and they are spectaular peepers and hooters. Mama and papa were there with a dear friend and those peacocks really let out some weird sqawks and the little rooster with feathered feet was truly a joy to watch. But the TURKEY spread his feathers...

Old photo but still… Mama wishes I were still there with papa and her because I could keep her in line, haha…. Mama says that she simply has to speak out when our so-called leader is breaking every law he can break and has no RESISTANCE! Okay…wordless Wednesday it is. But.. our wish is that he is somehow removed SOON by his own...
