{~*~{Observations}~*~}

Side by side, hand in hand, the two of them, sweet love walks, a jogger around and around he goes on the path in the park, tiny acorns fallen on the ground, moist warm air, cool breeze, it's that bush again playing tricks with it's scent, It seems everytime I pass it the scent changes, what is it? I stop and put my nose in the blossom's, smells so good, like candy at the moment. The bees love it. Evening walk, Rain tomorrow, I can see it coming as the sun starts it's decent in the sky, the last day of July. I smell ketchup, I hear children playing, people riding on their bikes, cars whizzing passed me, someone is having Fried Chicken tonight.

Do you know what this is? I can't seem to find it in my book. Update 6-28-09: While I was at {Herbal Spirits} I finally found out what this is. It is Curly Dock. I found out more about the plant in the book by Reader's Digest called North American Wildlife. Plants are so interesting. GOD Bless!!!

{~*~Book~*~}

{The Paper Home by Labeena Ishaque} has some really great projects to make in it. I seen it on the book shelf at the library and checked it out. Have you seen this {Book}?

{~*~Blackberries and Butterflies~*~}

I had to take a video and book back to the library. I checked out some others. I've been wanting to read The Diary of a Young Girl Anne Frank. It includes previously unpub- lished material. After the Library I went to the Post Office and onto the store. I decided to take a short walk before shopping. I had found some blackberries along side a road. So I picked some to bring home. I picked enough to put in a Blueberry-Lemon Muffin recipe out of a Better Homes and Gardens All-time Favorite Fruit recipes. Pg. 32. It calls for 1 tsp. of finely shredded lemon peel. I use more of the lemon peel. I like it much better that way. Dd said they'd taste good with just the lemon she thought. So sometime I'll have to try it. I am sure it will taste just as good. A tip if you have the oven on and you need to melt some butter. I just put butter in a pyrex bowl and sit it on the burner where the heat vent comes up from the oven. It melts with- out using extra electricity. Pyrex bowls are not ment for stovetop or broiler but I figure that if I don't have the burner on it won't break. It worked for me. I also do this if I want to keep something warm without having the burner on. This only works if your using the oven. I watched two white Butter- flies and some Bumblebees today while pick- ing Blackberries. I think I am on my way to recovering. I still can not sit for long periods at the computer though. I have some things to catch up on around here. So when I am caught up I'll be back to visiting blogs. GOD Bless and Thank You So Much For All The Prayers and Well Wishes!!!

Is a Butterfly more free than a Caterpillar? Are they not one in the same? Traveling in one direction, only one without wings. Are they not, on the same adventure called, The cycle of life?~Flassie.

{~*~Christmas in July~*~}

From Pink Chalk Studios : {Joy Ride} I think this is a great idea for a gift. You can adapt it to maybe summer camps or things kids did over summer vacation. How about using the childs artwork or making a silhouette book.

{~*~Depression~*~}

I was watching Dr. to Dr. on TBN and one of the featured doctors was talking about depression. You might think your depressed when it is a symptom of and underlying cause of something else going on in your body. Check out The Block Center for more information you can ask your doctor to check out.
