Hi
I'm grateful for what I have, but sometimes I found my life boring. Right now is sunny going to a meeting maybe a walk in downtown vancouver, being single is no helping either but I accept it as it is. But I will no change it for a drink or a hit of drug, this new life is much better.
24 more please and have a wonderful Sunday.

When I was a kid growing up in the Midwestern US, there was a lady in my neighborhood who lived on a corner in a small house with a large yard that she’d let go over entirely to wildflowers. She usually got a lot of little blue flowers among the snowbells and crocus in the early spring, and I never knew what they were called. Turns out they’re Siberian squills, or wood squills, native to Russia, the Caucasus, and Turkey, and they’re considered invasive in the Midwest.

Scilla siberica. There are worse things to be invaded by.


Tune in later for the list of those who committed here (or were committed here LOL) 7 days straight over the last week, to be posted later today. If you haven’t signed in today, I hope you’ll check in! And of course, I’ll see you tomorrow, I hope!

Today is Peanut Cluster Day! Goo Goo cluster!!

Mmmmmmm..... chocolate and peanuts together once again.

Are you constantly harangued by questions about the peanut cluster? Well, here are some answers.

‘Peanut Cluster’ is referred to a type of candy that mixes melted chocolate and peanuts.

These crunchy treats are a perfect combination of a sweet and salty deliciousness.

There are several versions of peanut clusters including caramel clusters (the turtle), butterscotch clusters and chocolate peanut clusters.

Peanuts have a higher antioxidant capacity over grapes, green tea, tomatoes, spinach, carrots and many more.


Peanut clusters have been around for many years dating way before 1912 when they were made popular by the Goo Goo Cluster.

There you go! My very favorite version of this is peanuts, chocolate, and chinese noodles. My mom made these for me as a kid and I seriously thought I died and went to heaven.

Have a great day, everyone. The melting has begun, and I'm off to deal with the water.
