Highlighted Blog #24 – Kat’s Thoughts

Posted in blogging, WordpressTagged , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Often I will curl up on a day off and read through blogs. I particularly love reading a nice long blog post that broadens my world. Kat’s blog is one of my favorites for this. Through her writing, I gain insight into novels and get to armchair travel and learn about the world.

Trois-Pistole is a small town a few hours away north from Montreal. It is located on the shore of the Saint-Laurence river close where it falls into the ocean. Almost everything about the area makes you feel like you are at the seaside – the fresh salty air, the water full of seaweed, the seals […]

Highlighted Blog #22 – Seriously Seeking Answers

Posted in bloggingTagged , , , , , , , , , 1 Comment

Why? How is it that I believe what I believe? And is it right? The Seriously Seeking Answers blog is written by a woman who constantly questions her own beliefs, and I love that. But it’s not all seriousness. She also has fun animal pics and some recipes and other info.

The frost sadly zapped my annual flowers early this year. But as the saying goes, “The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.” And the fall leaves, which seem to need a good freeze to get really colorful, are making up for the lost flowers. Here is the view from my kitchen window in the […]

Highlighted Blog #21 – That Little Voice

I just love Radar. Pictures of that adorable dog and other animals draw me to this blog. The author is great with a camera and writes in response to various challenges. So interesting!

My contributions to Photo Challenge prompt ‘Ruling the Roost’ shows my new doglet Radar viewing his domain (he could be auditioning for ‘The King and I’) and a playmate attempting to figure out who is in charge, a neighborhood cat who rules from on high, and precious Chili, the doglet who shared my life for […]

Highlighted Blog #20 – A Mama’s View

Posted in bloggingTagged , , , , , , 1 Comment

This mom, homeschooler, writer has a very approachable writing style as she shares observations on life and addresses trending topics. Her writing is eclectic. Sometimes she covers daily life, other times she shares quotes and personal thoughts. It’s always interesting.

Special is an interesting word. It can mean something good or something bad. It can be seen as a compliment or as a way of describing something which you are not really sure of, not really sure if you think it’s good or bad. Every now and then I look at my life and have […]

Oh my goodness. Sometimes you just need to laugh, and that’s what Pam’s blog does for me. She is just so real!!! A mother of triplets and a colleague of mine, Pam never runs out of interesting observations on life. Day to day stuff she comments on. Kids, dogs, sewing, family, friends — she covers it all. She dares to say what some of us might just think, and with such forthrightness and wit, one can only admire.

Highlighted Blog #13 – Foodie With Family

Posted in WordpressTagged , , , , , , , Leave a comment

This woman sometimes makes me think I can cook. I lie not. With a few ingredients, a touch of time, and a dash of humor, we’re off and running into another salivation-worthy adventure.

Maybe I also feel a connection because the Foodie With Family author is a mother of sons. Love how her own son helped her with the video for Baked Potatoes 🙂 .

I don’t know a whole lot about birds. I think they are beautiful, and I love listening to them early on a summer morning. But if one flies by me, I’m more likely to describe it as yellow or blue than to actually know something about it. In fact, I have no idea what bird I just added in my Featured Image, and I’m thinking it might not be one from Australia. Apologies for that misrepresentation if so. I’m starting to learn more, however. Blogs such as aussiebirder.com are changing that.

It’s true, I don’t live in Australia, but maybe someday I will visit. Actually, I should look for a similar site here n North America. Any suggestions?

I love how this man writes in an engaging manner, but also throws in scientific details and fun facts. I had no idea birds could get drunk on sugar content from a tree or even group up to protect the source of their Bacchus-inspired activities. Very interesting. And the images on the site are an art of its own, in addition to the writing. Hope you enjoy the site as much as I do.

Last weekend my wife and I drove to Wollongong Botanic Gardens on the tip off that a single Regent Honeyeater had been visiting a bright red flowering bush known as the ‘Drunk Parrot Tree’ (Schotia brachypetala). To our great delight we were blessed with many sightings of the bird as it came briefly to feed […]
