Do you make wish lists?



Good Thursday morning! ITS GOING TO BE 57 DEGREES TODAY!!!!!!!  Can you tell I am excited? I checked on my plants on my outdoor hot boxes and had to knock snow off of them. Today I am going to water them and see whats starting to sprout. I think I have some lettuce on one of them. Not everyone is as excited about today as I am. Our cat is mad at me and keeps trying to bite me because I wont let him sit on my laptop as I am typing.

Do you make a wish list of things that you would like to have. This is not necessities, Wants and necessities can vary from person to person so dont think that if something on my wish list is something you feel you cant live without means that I think you are frivolous. I dont even own a microwave. I have lots of friends who have instapots and I am still riding the fence on getting one. I have friends with Kitchen Aides and I have most of the things that come with one and cant personally justify getting rid of all those things that still work and purchasing one. Everyone I know who has one loves them though and thats what really matters. I found an Oster brand kitchen aid at Goodwill for $9 and I have to admit that blender on that thing is the best one I have ever owned. I use it to grind flour and make icees. Not at the same time though. I love the french fry slicer on it too,

I usually keep a list of things that I would like to have but am not willing to pay full price for. My hubby has a french press for his coffee and I had thought that I would love to have one for tea. I use alot of loose teas and it would work perfect for that. I did not want to spend the $15-20 for a one of my own and his smells like coffee. I wanted a glass mason jar with a spout for my green tea. My daughter and I love green tea and would probably drink a full gallon every day when it gets warmer. I also wanted a cold press coffee maker to see how my hubby would like it and see if I drank the cold press if I wouldnt get an upset stomach like I do after 1 cup of coffee.

I walk in Kroger and what do I find? A coffee press, a gallon glass jar with spout for my tea and a cold coffee brew pot and get all for $15! I forgot to get a pic of the cold brew pot but will share my recipe later on how it works for Mr Ladybug.





Yesterday I backed into the driveway was about to open the car door and step out when a little bird landed on the driver side mirror. I was not sure what kind of bird it was and came in to look it up. That little bird taunted me all day long. It landed on the feeder at our front window, Only to fly off when I got my phone. It landed on the fence across from my kitchen sink as I was washing dishes only to fly off when I tried to get a pic and then the little stinker landed near me when I was on the garden and of course did not have my phone, I think I found out what it was but its normally a bird not in the city but it may have stopped by migrating back here from wherever it goes in the winter. I think it may have been this little guy.


Bird watching is one of our favorite things to do. This would be a new one to add to our list if we could be 100% sure thats what it was,
