MERRY CHRISTMAS!


MERRY CHRISTMAS...

VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!


Yule logs and Ginger dough
If we share and count everyday
Blessings from high above
It's Christmas Everyday!

Green Handed...!

This thief got caught GREEN handed! Snacking on my precious Centella Asiatica, he looks like he knows what he is doing...

I have been wondering who is snipping off the leaves, leaving long bare stalks that looked pathetic.

Has Mr. Squirrel been reading my blog?

If not, I am really impressed that he discovered all the health benefits of this ancient, but a newcomer herb to my garden.



The leaves are crunchy and have a unique scent and taste; great for fresh salad with a squeeze of lime. Obviously our Squirrel did not mind not having a lime to go with it. He must love it more than I do!

Cardinal Haiku!



Merciless Mercy!


Vibrant and brief
As a Haiku he Twittered
Red, in Life and death

Heavenwards...
My Cardinal soared--clawed
By meanest power!

Flamboyant Flames: Fall 2011


This year the fall colors were flamboyant as never before...

We did not have to go to Natchez trace or Ozark mountains to see the fall's kaleido display. It was right outside our door step... every neighborhood and street looked a notch better than the other. It was a magical gala... thrown for thousand Cinderellas!
