Monday-Tuesday

Mums The Word
Unfortunately, I don't remember what color this guy is.
A black swallowtail.
Just for fun.
I jumped on the pumpkin spice bandwagon. I've been using it on my peanut butter toast.
AND...
This is probably the closest I'll ever get to Nora aka J.D. Robb. Heh.

AND...

Pumpkin cream cheese? Hmmm.

Valerie-Jael said...

Your chrysanthemums are lovely. Mine have lots of leaves but no flowers....Happy birthday Jacob! Husg, Valerie

Love the mums and the swallowtails.
Pumpkin spice is something we don't see. Yet. Our slavish following of your culture means it is probably on the way.
I wonder whether J.D Robb realises how privileged she is?

MUM truly is the word. Beautiful mums. Lovely swallowtail, too.

I can't wait to find that pumpkin cream cheese in my market. I haven't even seen any pumpkin ice cream yet.

Happy birthday Jacob.

Your mums are pretty. Love the M&M planter.
No pumpkin spice for me just yet, but I did have some candy corn this past week.

I have a mum that hasn't bloomed yet. I think he's red. I just bought a yellow one for out front today.

Sandra Cox said...

It's not too bad. The flavor is subtle, not overpowering.

Sandra Cox said...

Thanks, Val. I'm sure there're buds in their future:)
Hugs received and returned.

Hope you find the cream cheese. It's good. I also have a penchant for pumpkin pancakes.

Your mums are so full and pretty-love the orange one. The M & M makes me smile and the butterfly is so large and so pretty. I am not a pumpkin gal so that cheese sounds..um...unappealing:) Happy Birthday to Jacob!

Birgit said...

Oh...Hubby had his surgery last Thursday-a long day and Friday was caring for him and trying to feel better(me). He is in pain but he is ok so far. I am going for my biopsy this Friday

Sandra Cox said...

Ha! I do indeed.
Are you still working long hours?

Sandra Cox said...

Yeah:)

Sandra Cox said...

It is indeed.
Thank you.
It will be great when you are writing again.

I've just never developed a taste for candy corn. Though, most folks love it:)

Sandra Cox said...

Thanks, Lon:)

Sandra Cox said...

Thanks, Adam.

Sandra Cox said...

Good luck with planting it in our cement, err, clay soil.
I hope mine is red:)
