Ketch-Up Day

 

How are you? 

We have gone (Thank you, David) from 100 degrees to temps in the 60s.  Can't recall that one in August before. 

The butterflies have arrived and are visiting here. They do love the Butterfly Bushes. So does the occasional hummer and hummer moth.


 


 

 

This little fellow indow, kept me entertained while I was in the dental chair:)


 

AND

Has anyone had the cranberry nut bread from Publix? Oh my goodness. It's so very good.


AND *Alert*

Just a heads up, so you don't stumble into the same thing I did. I visited Melody Jacobs site and when I hit continue, the bells and whistles began to shriek with warnings, letting me know I was in malware territory.

In case you need it, I found this article helpful.

What to do if you accidentally visit a malicious website 

 

That's it for now. 

Had any of that bread? Is your temperature fluctuating like crazy? Got butterflies? Stumbled onto one of those nasty sites?

Hi Sandra - so good to see the Monarchs arriving ... I witnessed Tiger Butterflies on Rhodes Island in a valley they call the Valley of Butterflies - very impressive it was. I rarely eat bread ... but that looks good. Thanks for the warning about malware ... and hope that the teethlipegs are improved after your dentist visit?! Cheers Hilary

You are fortunate to see butterflies. They seem very rare in our inner suburbs. I gave a warning about Melody Jacobs a few weeks ago.

“We have went” - ??????

Last couple days have been great! Haven't tried the bread. No Publix.

It's been foggy in the mornings where I live, then warm by midday.

It's gone from very hot and humid to 60's at night and pleasant 860s0's in the days here.

Ok, trying again. I tried to post a comment 3 times and it doesn't seem to like me today. It has finally gotten cooler here but, the warm temperatures will return on Friday. Currently, the sky is hazy due to the smoke from the north hovering low. I adore butterflies, thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful week!

Our temps are a bit cooler in the eve but they up to 30C without the humidity. Your butterfly pics are so very beautiful. We have butterflies but not like it used to be. We used to see quite a few in the past now we have one or 2 monarchs which makes me sad.
I'm glad you had Mr. Squirrel to keep you happy I that dental chair. I am not a fan of dentists.

Enjoyed your photos why bake when you have publix. Thanks for the malware tip

Sandra Cox said...

Hi Hils, I would love to visit the Valley of Butterflies.
The dental visit was just a cleaning, so not bad at all.
Cheers,

Hey Andrew, I am fortunate to see the butterflies. They are so special.
Good on you for catching the MJ thing early.

Sandra Cox said...

Whoops.

Sandra Cox said...

Alex, Glad you are having good days. Publix is a good grocery store.

Sandra Cox said...

Jamie, That doesn't sound too bad. Just be careful on the roads.

Jeanie said...

Hmmm. My malware has never triggered Melody's site. That cranberry bread looks wonderful. I've not seen many butterflies this year.

Sandra Cox said...

Natalie, Sounds purrfect. Hope the good weather lasts.

Sandra Cox said...

True, I am so sorry you've had problems with this. Elizabeth has too. How close are you to wildfires?

Sandra Cox said...

Exactly on baking:) Thanks, Christine.

Sandra Cox said...

Hi Jeanie, Have you been over recently? FYI. It happened to me when I hit the continue button.
