Fun and Games and a Clue for you


Tammy made me laugh . 
Her example for 
 reminded me of my life.    
 No, there were no murders. 
 but
 Every now and then "the Lifeguard" will come home from work , 
and the first thing he says is
 something like

 "Miss Scarlet....in the Library....with a Dog Leash" 

this means
 "Let's go walk the dogs after I go to the bathroom"

Sometimes he wakes up in the morning... rolls over and says

"Mrs. Peacock... in the Kitchen ... with Hard Boiled Eggs" 

This means
 "Can you feed the dogs breakfast?"

....I know... I know.....not  weapons  in the game
 but funnier than heck
 we have been together so long,  
 it's fun to "decipher" his clues.

The occassional

"Mr. Dutch... in the Hall... with Paper towels"
means
well.....

those of you who know that my DutchBoy is a very very very old dog,
won't need a magnifying glass to figure that one out.

Now a clue about that mystery box in my giveaway:
"Ms.Purple... in the CraftRoom...with a Heat Gun"

Have a wonderful Monday !

Tuesday, Tea and Twelve Photos


 Hello Dear Friends,
This morning I slept in....as in ....slept til noon kind of sleeping in.
The lifeguard allows this especially after I put in a long day outside
with mowing weeding and digging in the dirt.
When I realized it was Tuesday I grabbed the mug that
 my dear sweet Lifeguard gave to me last week,
  made a cup of tea and sat down to catch up on my collage.


I am trying to combine my efforts to keep up with Daisy Yellow's 61 Daily Paper Prompts and Elizabeth's T stands for Tuesday weekly link up.   So far it seems to be working.

 The Tea

The tea I chose today is a 
Holiday Tea from 
Harney & Sons. I buy it at
 Barnes and Noble when 
it is available in November.
I love this tea so I buy
three tins to last all year.
 I also love love love their  
Hot Cinnamon Spice tea....
but I ran out of that.  boo. 
The photo on the right 
shows the tiny black tea
and the orange peel and
teeny teeny tiny safflower.

The Art
The prompt I am working on is
#5 - Linear.
I think I am a day or two behind.  I'll try to catch up. I was a bit shaky so I didn't draw a lot of lines....
just enough to appease the prompt gods.....       ......I hope.


The Mug

I love how he surprises me with small tokens of affection. 
Although I could not be Dog Mother of the Year without him.

I hope your Tuesday is a very very happy one.
Thanks for visiting.
Marianne

August - Breakfast - Rainbow


I am going to participate in August Break this month. 
But I am not going to be taking a break from my blog. 
Instead I am going to use the prompts to try to establish a
new routine to be a more consistent blogger.
I will also try to remember to post to instagram. 
the first prompt is
Breakfast 




A few of you know I recently
lost a lot of weight.
 I won't go into all the details now but
 I will share my daily breakfast with you.

Chocolate Protein Shake
 Spinach
two dashes of Tabasco 
30 drops of artichoke extract
 20 drops of cinnamon 
1/4 tsp of salt
all whirled up in a blender




I am also participating in 
 over at Daisy Yellow.
I am going to create one collage and try to use
 all the prompts on one piece.
The first prompt is
Rainbow
If it gets too difficult or cluttered I might have to split it in two after 30 days.We'll see ...  these two daily prompt lists should help keep my creative juices flowing through the dog days of summer.




and ....don't forget....
I am also planning  a Huge Giveaway this month.
