a cicada left 18 presents on our century plant. i think they're eggs. we saw the cicada there in the evening just before bedtime. when i woke up in the morning i rushed out to see if it was still there or if it had left it's shell (i have a collection of cicada husks). found the egg discs instead. they look hard, didn't touch them.
oh, babygirl, if it weren't for you, holding that lid up with your nose and back leg, i dunno how we would keep the chest open.
sometimes a swively, cocoa crunch, 3-inch, spoon is the only clean utensil. the head swivels all the way down to the spoon, you can imagine how fun that is.
cats like to eat games.
this quilt was made under the influence of sloppy joes, chocolate milk, little white powdered donuts, orange capuccino, and mcdonalds. actually, it's just the front. still have to give it a back and guts, and quilt. (1)pieced as squares before cutting into triangles,(2)nepal in the living room; triangles sewn together, (3)all squares ironed and stacked, (4)the inside and first border completely sewn, next border just laying there.

mystikalmagik: not sure what your other name is, but happy for you and will miss reading you. been way offline. cicadas might be part of the grasshopper family, but they look nothing like grasshoppers or crickets. they have these round bodies. when they are winged (after they shed), they will bumble around on the ground and make lots of noise. they also make lots of noise (more than any grasshopper) when not slamming thier little bodies into the pavement.
