Sunday

As always, a photo from home for Lauren. As the crow flies, maybe a mile from our house. Blessings on your day!

Slackin Saturday

I will be back later on with a really nice recipe for some weekend cookies, but for now, I just have this ‘shroom. [late day addition – the cookies ain’t happening today it seems. Tuesday – I promise!]

Last night Larry and I went up in the State Land Forest to take some photos, which I will post in the days to come. Under the litter of last year’s oak leaves, I spotted a flash of red, and pulling back the leaves, I found this.
I would not have been surprised at all to see a toad sitting on it and even less surprised if it had spoken to me. But this is all I saw.

Have a great day.

SkyWatch #13

Go check out Skywatch Friday and be amazed by photography of beautiful skies all over the world.

It was a little chilly this morning with fall in full force, but coffee on the front porch was worth a few shivers.

Now – you should go and enter my friend Kate’s contest. Her generous personality shines through her photos and this weekend, she is giving one away. Go check it out.

Products to enrich your life

I have searched the entire internet [well, one website anyway] to bring you another installment of products that you need – all here in one convenient location..

Just what we all want to see first thing in the morning, a Talking Robot Alarm ClockAnd now only $49.95 – better hurry, these will move fast!

Don’t you hate it when you are driving down the road and can’t find your corkscrew? That won’t happen anymore with the Key Chain Corkscrew!Always right at your fingertips for that “on the way home” bottle of Chardonnay.

And the ever popular Adjust-a-Burger. The name just rolls off your tongue, doesn’t it?Not such a bad idea, but “adjusting” your burger isn’t something I ever imagine having to do.

Foodies – you won’t want to miss this – another arduous kitchen task now made effortless by the Banana Slicer!Not exactly what you would call a multi-tasker, but if you need your bananas sliced with precision, this will fill the bill.

After you buy this Electronic Grocery List Organizer for $149, you won’t have any money left for the groceries. Don’t forget the paper refills!

And last, but certainly not least, who doesn’t need a French Bread Wrist Rest?It was, at least, listed under “home office” products – too informal for a professional setting I guess.

So there you have it folks; a must-have list of essentials. I am kind of like the Robin Leach of blogdom, bringing items to your attention that you never knew anyone, least of all you, needed. You don’t have to thank me though. Just knowing I could help is thanks enough.
