This evening, just before dinner, the rain let up for a while. It had fallen relentlessly for most of the day but tailed off into a fine, misty drizzle then just stopped. I took myself into the back garden where things were heavy...

More Rose of Sharon blooms to share from the garden. Bees and butterflies have found the nectar filled blooms. Tiny buds waiting to open on all three bushes. Mornings are my favorite time of the day. Before it gets too hot I...

Some stuff is just so incredibly stupid that you can't possible make it up. This is one of those times. Young people in Tuscaloosa, Alabama are charging admission to parties and encouraging people infected with COVID to attend....

Fiacre Banks @loriamoore Such people need to be jailed. People who wilfully spread HIV are rightly jailed And this should apply here too.

The photo has nothing to do with the post. It is free from Wikimedia. At one point in my working career, I asked for a reference from a business manager. Below is the first reference he gave me. Then he gave me another ‘proper’...

Fiacre Banks @judyev The creature pictured seems to fit the description given of Mrs Judy Evans. When we lived near Belfast zoo a red panda escaped and lived in gardens around us.

The photo of a grey fantail has nothing to do with the story. Back in January 2019, I wrote about an old 78rpm record we had entitled ‘Kelly’s Cow Has Got No Tail’ by the Flanagan brothers. Just a couple of days ago, a new...

Fiacre Banks @loriamoore Not nice. I used to hate it when the dentist used to give me anaesthetic injections that seemed to go behind my nose. Hope you’re negative.

Going through some files yesterday, I came across the above document which says that my husband, Vince, escaped being drafted into the services and so was exempted from going to Vietnam. National conscription had been brought into...

I was not hungry this evening so I cut up some of the chard I had cooked in the morning and mixed it was thick cream. Just a bit of salt and pepper and some grated cheese. If I´m hungry later, I will make me a taco or a...

Your child is a gift from God. When it rains and flowers and plants grew. That is God's gift to all of us. When you look up at the sky. You see the beauty of the sky. How blue the sky is. You see the birds flying up high in the...

Fiacre Banks @jstory07 it’s almost exhausting taking it all in. I get almost delirious with joy when I think too much about God’s lavish gifts. Nothing better than sitting on a quiet evening surrounded by it all and just drinking it in.

With the summer days heating up, my dinners will be less and less. Decided on pasta salad. I love this dish for many reasons. Easy. Does not heat up the kitchen. And you can add whatever you want to change it up. I have some...

Fiacre Banks @judyev Oh I will enjoy the wine, be assured. I’m expecting a delivery of six bottles today, one of which is Lebanese, another Australian, and I’m looking forward to them. Queueing outside a wine shop gives the impression of dependency so I have begun ordering...

Fiacre Banks @caroldm Nothing better than a bit of pasta with fresh home-made pesto and maybe a few tomatoes chopped up and run through it.

Fiacre Banks @judyev Mine were all destined for the pot so we weren’t fussy about how fancy they looked. We were only allowed to give two of them names (Heather and Audrey) so they were safe.
