When I was shopping today I found these..


I will NOT be eating them...they are VEGETABLES, GOOD FOR YOU, and VEGETABLES !! But I love the colour and the shape of them..

THE WORDS....

... GUS, BRAVE and HERO.... are not usually used in the same sentence....BUT , today they could be xx

This morning when I took the boys out for their walk, a NOISY dog had a go at Sam and myself. Gus had ambled off following some smell or other, obviously heard the noise and came steaming to the rescue!!

He jumped in front of the other dog and "saved" the day!

..................SO...............

Gus is very BRAVE, and my HERO xx

To be honest we were NOT in any danger (lot of noise but no real threat!!)... and .. Gus came off worse with a bloody ear!!

He would NOT sit still to let me take a picture properly..


He had an extra biscuit for being brave... and is fine xx

FOR OCTOBER...

.... I have the fun of being the QUEEN BEE for stash hive #3 xx YIPPEEE x

I have just posted the request for my block... so ... I thought I would share with you what I have asked for xx... of course you could click on the link on the side bar.. if you want to!

If not.... here is my block..

I have asked the ladies in my hive to send me a flower.. or flowers x

The weather here has been so wet, wet and .... WET, that the poor old garden has really suffered,

 ......................so...........

 I thought this was a good way to "grow" an alternative garden x AND one that will last whatever the weather throws at us xx
