That little blue cabinet is just adorable and I love the color. :) My garden is not doing as well as your's is due to this cold weather we have been having. I am wearing a lightweight jacket today and I'm usually desperately trying to stay cool this time of year.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449564619872452771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-51312353713805277902018-06-11T16:43:42.540-04:002018-06-11T16:43:42.540-04:00Cheri no I have never really started a list - but ...Cheri no I have never really started a list - but that might be a neat thing to do.<br />I can't imagine seeing turkeys in real life.

I clipped some crabapple branches for a little winter decor on our front porch and 3 turkeys came up on our porch right at the front door and ate off all the crab apples!<br /><br />Great sales and I too LOVE that little blue cabinet.

My garden is happy!<br />sorry you ruined your sandals - I would keep them for that very reason - stepping in a puddle!<br /><br />That is a great price on the chicken. I love Popeye's.

That little cabinet is really cute though. It has been raining every afternoon somewhere in the city every day, except on my side of town. I will get lots of clouds and even some thunder, but it just hasn't rained. But, to ward it off, I bring sneakers and sox just in case it does right before I leave to go home from work. I ruined my oldest paid of sandals stepping in the rain to get to the car one night, so I always travel with a pair in hand now. I have been cooking from home only. tonight though I will be stopping at Popeye's. I have a coupon for 8 pieces of chicken for $5.99, so will take advantage of that. I like it, it keeps the oven from needing to be heated and I budgeted for this. Gotta go. Take care.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14579989452439876698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-12889229467555784552018-06-10T16:10:57.082-04:002018-06-10T16:10:57.082-04:00Laurie - it is a real job painting - but it is som...Laurie - it is a real job painting - but it is something I have always liked doing.
