Welcome June...!!! :-)

Susan Branch's Mini Calendar, make a lovely way to Welcome June...  :-)



Another gadget!  Which "Uncle A." has been wanting.  :-)  A French Press for a smaller afternoon cup of coffee.  We often watch "As Time Goes By," and they are always making coffee with a French Press.  So he wanted one, too.  -grin-   That's just the coffee cup, which comes with our dishes.  He wanted a different one, for his afternoon coffee, so we found one this morning.  We'll see how it "fits."  

Yes, we lead a very quiet life...  -gigggles-  When we can get *hepped-up* about Kitchen Gadgets!



When one can only eat Goat Cheese, one keeps looking for new and different kinds of it.  Found this Maple Chèvre.  Nice...  And there is also Goat Cheddar Cheese to be found.  That's got a *punch* to it!!!! 



Just some bubbles in the Bird Bath Fountain Pond, on a very hot afternoon...



And last but not least.....

Whoooo-hoooooo!  According to park rangers in New South Wales, Australia, dozens of giant, fluorescent pink slugs have been popping up on a mountaintop there.

I'm not a slug lover but!!!  Wow!  What a gorgeous addition to a garden?!?  -giggggle-

My son uses a French press...one gets quite a cup of coffee from those. A little too intense for me. Is the afternoon coffee decaf? Just wondering. We enjoy watching As Time Goes By, though only on Saturday evenings.

That slug can stay in New South Wales. I'm not even one bit interested. =D

Both my son and daughter prefer French Press coffee to anything else. I like it fine, but DH doesn't like the sludge that remains in the bottom of the cup?? It's 'coffee sludge' so I don't know what the problem is.

I watch "as Time goes by" also here on Sunday nights. And "Goodnight Sweetheart"... used to watch "Good Neighbors" but I think they took it off.

i stopped and just stared for a while at that chair in your header. i love love love it!!!
and the bubbles in the bird bath. my kind of pic... little things make us happy to. my sons wife had something i want, it is a milk frother... she handed me my coffee and said there is frothy milk or cream and the frothy was soooo good. hope i did not give you another idea for a gadget to get.

Auntie, I have a french press also. I do not use it much. I think that slug is gross, even in the bright color. At least you could see it ...eweee. As you can tell creepy things make me squeamish. This came with age..when I was young, I would capture anything in a jar.xoxo, Susie

Susie said...

Auntie, Thank you for telling me about my rose. I think it'll be okay, as it's has plenty of room.xo,Susie

Gadgets can be fun, but blah to that big arse slug

I hadn't heard about the slug, so it was quite a shock to see one in that color!

Oh my goodness I've never seen or heard of a slug that color. I'm off to read about it.
