Ewwww: a lizard tail, left behind by its owner. This is both cool and rather disgusting, in my opinion. At least it means--let's hope--that whatever predator probably caused it to lose its tail did not get to eat the lizard as dinner.
Ooooh: a blimp, right over my head (and rather low, too).
The many faces--OK, well, not really that many--of Tallulah Mae, who has apparently decided to wear her ears back in a bun.
This photo shows a truly awesome gift: a pair of plastic salt and pepper shakers. Cool in and of themselves (we actually collect midcentury plastic things). But check it out:
That, my friends, is Loretta Lynn's signature!!!!! Oh, yeah. In Sharpie, on a pair of plastic S&P shakers, the autograph of the Coal Miner's Daughter. Way, way cool, yes?
Apparently grass feels the need to be King of the Hill...it sent a runner all the way up the inside of this sign pole to come out on top.
Love. This. Maybe this can be Tallulah Mae's very own trailer, towed behind our bigger trailer? (Nah, I'd miss her too much!)
Check it out: this is my amaryllis plant after the blooms died...they made a heart for me (a heart with a ponytail?). Below is what it looked like in full bloom.
P.S. Please excuse the dishes and plastic bag drying in the top shot...it ain't pretty, maybe, but it's my life! (At least they're clean dishes and not dirty ones!)
I'm not the only one who loves Target popcorn: now is when we need a flip book so you can see this girl in action. She is unbelievably talented when it comes to catching things, in part due to her incredible focus: note the popcorn in the fifth image hanging there in the air with Miss Mae's eyes firmly glued to it. (Also: please excuse the ironing board in the background--tsk, tsk!)
Pure loveliness! Last one before I prune all of the rosebushes down for the season. Pretty remarkable to have roses blooming in January...lucky us!
While I rather love the color and texture of this mold, it does make this particular Cutie (tiny clementines, for anyone who doesn't know) less than cute, don't you think? (I actually smelled that something was rotten in Cutie Denmark for several days--you know that smell, not bad, really, just uber-citrusy--and I was just too lazy to dig around and find the culprit. The result? Behold, a furry little Cutie.)
B. and I went for tea at Shakespeare's Tea Shoppe last week. His mother is British, so we take these sorts of teas with a grain of salt, as it were--his mum is always saying that most Brits would not recognize what is served as "tea" (the repast, not the beverage) in this country. But no matter...
God Save the Queen!
Ah, the old "funny-photo-of-dog-with-tiny-foreshortened-legs" trick. Good one, Tallulah Mae!
It was a beautiful cloudless day today, so the sunset looked like this...
This is tonight's version...I'm just going to run with it and feature sunsets this week. (BTW, you might be waiting a loooong time before I blog about any sunRISES! I wish I were that early bird, but I'm not...no worms for me!)
No words needed, right? (Except to say that those dark areas coming in from the right side in top photos were indeed clouds, not something in front of the lens...wow.)
Tallulah Mae is shouting the news: It's the 1,000th blog post here at Foziewisp! Woo-hoo ... {confetti and balloons drop}.
That means there have been 245 (plus this one) Tallulah-Palooza Fridays (everyone's favorite day of the week)! Tallulah Mae is downright amazed.
Hi, I'm Sherri, and I have an addiction to Target popcorn. I have to have it anytime I go into Target, no matter what time of day. (Today was extra-special because my popcorn spilled in my car, all down into my parking brake, into that gross place that you can't reach beside your seat, under my seat, etc. Fun!) I still love you, Target popcorn, even if I did have to go to the gas station to use the vacuum.
I realized that I forgot to share with you my Christmas reindeer confab, and I also noticed that Great-Granddaddy reindeer up there is giving me that look--you don't want to annoy him, trust me; that white glittery one knows the score--so here it is:
Love. Them. All different kinds, but in order to keep the collection sane (ahem), I limit myself to only those standing up...if you're lying down, you're not entering this group--sorry, lying-down deer, but one has to have limits. Or so I'm told...
This was my New Year's Eve dessert: salted caramel pot de creme. Although it doesn't look like much in this photo, it was unbelievably yummy--sadly, after three other courses, I was too full to eat every last bit of it (but I ate most of it!). Dinner was at my current favorite restaurant, Urban Solace.
This is a savory cake filled with sweet potatoes and dandelion greens. It had the consistency of a loaf cake...served with a green salad for dinner. OMG: Yum. (Made by B., BTW, not me...he's the resident chef!)
