This week for Pink Saturday

I am sharing our crepe myrtles.

They are at peak of

full and glorious bloom.

I grew up in south Florida,

and we didn't have crepe myrtles.

But, my grandmother in North Carolina

had one in her yard,

and I thought it was the most gorgeous thing ever.

All of those pretty and fluffy blooms.

So, when we moved to North Carolina,

I had to have crepe myrtles.

We planted these three down our driveway.

There are a variety of wonderful colors,

and while I love them all,

I had to have the same color as

my grandmother's crepe myrtle.

It is a sweet memory.

Thank you to each and every one of you

 

for making Pink Saturday special.

Sunglasses For Puzzle Friday

 

A puzzle for the

fun-lovers.

I love jigsaw puzzles.

I've loved putting together puzzles since I was a young child.

The part I don't like is having the puzzle sit out

for long periods of time in the house.

The table it is on is "occupied",

the pieces get knocked off on the floor

and the lighting is not always great.

Those are the reasons I love these online puzzles.

No mess and quick solutions.

Give them a try.

You don't have to give your solution time.

How long it takes isn't important.

What is important is that you try.

 

Come on and play with me.

My advice is to study the picture and

puzzle shape before you start.

These puzzles are fun,

and our brains can

use the workout.

My time was 4:52 seconds.
