How are you? How goes your week? We went to Mooresville and putzed around. Oh my gosh. There's so much Halloween decos out. I love it. It's fun. Halloween is certainly giving Christmas a run for its money. Money being the operative word. Heh. The HH surprised me with this mug for me.
I'm still weeding and staining the fence. I will be finished....Someday. Maybe.
I was reading an old favorite, a Barbara Michaels' paperback, and I frequently had to stop and and tape pages back together. Out of curiosity, I checked the copyright date to give me a clue as to when I bought it. That paperback was over fifty years old!
AND
The Eternal Garden and critters in it:)
I'm fascinated by this hibiscus. After the bloom falls off, what is left looks a flower, doesn't it?
AND
From California.
Thanks, Denise;) xo

I like the cat mug.
That mug is a beauty. Love your garden and all of the critters too.
Hi Sandra ... sounds like a fun time - that mug is 'brilliant'! Critters beguile us don't they ... while the garden entrances ... Autumn has arrived here ... much cooler - cheers Hilary
The mug is way cool.
I have a couple of books that are falling apart. One is The Cousin from Fiji. I can recommend it. It is light and interesting, and a bit of snapshot of mores and lives in Australia in I think the late 19th century.
Halloween already? We’re barely into September.
I LOVE your mug! All the Inks and pumpkins
Mug is cool.
I don't think that's a real toucan though...
I just planted a hibiscus. I got it on scratch and dent from Walmart. It's flourishing and getting ready to bloom!
Liking them all...lol...the skunk! Lolol

She photographed Pepe Le Peu! Love this hibiscus… I also love that mug and the one with the round eyes made me laugh because that’s Lexi before she pounces on something. Glad you had a nice weekend.
Thanks, Jamie;)
Thanks, EC:) Your area is sure looking pretty.
'Critters beguile us while the garden entrances.' Nicely done! I hope Autumn treats you well. Cheers,
Next month....;)
It's cool that you've owned that book for over 50 years. I have one I loved when I was about seven, which is also over 50 years ago. Your husband was sweet to get you the cute Halloween cup.
Glad you like the mug:)
Thanks for the book recommendation. Nice to know I'm not the only one that holds on to old favorites;)
Ya can't beat Inks and pumpkins:)
Heh. I can't slip anything by you;)
Yay! My kind of shopper. What color?
I'm glad;) Luckily, the skunk didn't skunk anyone;)
I loved Pep Le Peu:) Glad you liked the hibiscus and the mug. I bet Lexi is a hoot. Hope you had a good weekend.
Yay you:)
It was nice of him:) I think I'll keep him:)
Lindo zorrillo. Te mando un beso.
Great mug! I also have some books that are at least 50 years old and a few that are even older. We went to Costco on Saturday and Christmas stuff was out next to Halloween decorations and candy! Way too soon for Christmas!
Love,
Janie
That mug is adorable! Praying mantises fascinate me, too. I haven't seen many throughout my life, but it's always fun to sit and observe them for a bit when they do make an appearance.
It is cute, isn't it, J.P. Sending you hugs,
Some books are like old friends, aren't they, Janie.
Christmas and Halloween side by side. Yikes.
Hi Damy, Glad you like the mug:) I agree. I don't know what it is about them, but praying mantises fascinate.
The praying mantis is an amazing creature. I had one around my place for a couple of days. It was rather large and I kept wondering what it was trying to say to me. It was on my window perfectly still. I went out on the deck and was able to get very close to take photos. It's tiny head observing me. surreal....
Glad he visited with you for a couple of days. Their heads are amazing, aren't they?
