Piggy Plum Pie with The Ice Cream High

Piggy Plum Pie, a song of my childs stuck in my head.............and my friend didn't know she had a plum tree in her yard full of them! No bug spray, eat right off the tree.

Under Construction

Working a Mermaid Temperance Card/Painting and sea turtle at the same time. Sea turtle is a little sad and hard going with the Gulf creatures in such crisis.

The Redneck Rule

I usually keep my blog light and fluffy but today I get my bitch on. We have a beautiful drive to only beach front park on the island. It is a refuge from lugging chairs, coolers, and all the essentials for a day at the beach, simply back up to the water and enjoy! I did not think alcohol in any form was allowed. Yes I am the red wine lover and enjoy great margarittas, but now they are allowed to have beer (as well as pizza and ice cream, fishing tackle) delivered. Just get out the cell phone and call the ONE AND ONLY place that has a permit and they will bring it. My question: Doesn't Gilligan have to get off the island/beach sometime? Won't he be intoxicated when he crawls off? Our town officials said this is "cool and heaven" to have beer brought to you right at the beach.

I am worried about the aftermath. There is no taxi service and its a long walk off the park to any form of lodging so I am sure BUBBA will drive. It is a narrow, narrow (did I say NARROW) two lane residential road into the beach, 25mph and a bike lane. I think we will attract the worse kind of people and traffic one can imagine. I'll let you know what happens.

Chandelier Recycle

I had this hanging in my office at my old house but moving took its toll and no matter how hard I tried to rehang these crystals it was always off so I decided to strip them off the hardware and use them in various projects that I will "show as I go"......quite a bit to work with and yes, its past manicure day!

Eclipse & Planets Align

Prepare for odd energy as we have a rare celestial event with the planets today topped off with an eclipse!

High Noon Burning Bowl

Remember at high noon to burn the paper with your burdens, needs, desires............ask in faith for your spirit guides to help make dreams come true!

Summer Solstice

The first day of Summer and the longest day of the year, the faireys and the stargazers come out to play. I grew this one and it bloomed today. My favourite flower!

Happy Fathers Day

Making Dad his favorite dish and missing my own Father who loved to come here and fish. Picked lovely flowers from the garden including stargazers!!! I may be inspired to come up with a dessert item or two later. We have movies by the lake tonight, everyone rides bike or walks, brings a chair or blanket and snacks. Our version of a "drive in movie". Tonight its The Tooth Fairy, a real funny one according to the kids. Hope the weather holds out.

The Visitors

The kids came in for a few days of beach fun and rides at the little amusement park by the sea. How about being on top of a Ferris Wheel during fireworks? From the looks of the kids, Miley Cyrus and Lady Gaga were in the house!

Salute to Summer & Last Day of School

All is quiet in the hallways for now, as the children had their last day of school. I will of course be sneaking in early to put crystals on a mural and start a new one in honour of the 5th graders who will be "graduating" to another school. I wish all a safe and happy summer, and may God heal our Gulf waters and the creatures who live there. Peace.

Todays Pickings

I am having to beat a few critters to my "stash" of fresh items growing in the garden, this was all picked today. Oven fry green tomatoes tonight! The smell of the flowers is unreal.

4th Grade Celebrates End of Year

Big doings at the little school, with volleyball, hula hoops and a treasure hunt by the seashore. I am so glad my child gets to attend this wonderfull school. There is always something going on for the children. I was in charge of the pizza/snacks so I wanted to make it look a bit more festive using cut flowers from the gardens here at home, hat boxes to hold treats with shells and starfish carefully placed.

Underplanting with Herbs and Gardenias from D

I am filling the "house hibiscus" with an under planting of herbs. A stoneware urn holds the rest of the lights so I put the live flower arrangment on top. Dragonflys and faireys are in the pot too. Some are harder to find than others.

Peaches with Vanilla, Almond or Pepper Hot!

Here is the first batch and its pretty good.
