Oh, that moth is gorgeous! And a wonderful photo of it. I'm at the lake, too. Sure is hot and that's OK with me. I'm in serious isolation mode and it's easy up here. I'm a little put out that I have to go home and some things for a longer stay! Ah, well. That pasta looks good. Consider it copied down! Stay well and happy. (I have bad hair, too.)
Life sounds good all except for Grandpa not being able to attend the very special christening and Layla's need to stay a way from the water when she lives at the lake. Your grandgirlies are darling. I know they provide a lot of joy.
The pandemic? I'm equally concerned with the riots and statues being pulled over. Crazy times. One day at a time...
It was a lot of fun catching up with you! I think I have the previous post to read next. How did I miss that one? Covid is still raging in Texas and we are in a quarantine period ending on July 11th since we picked my step son up at the airport and taking him back here to the ranch. I'm staying busy as I always am but I feel safer in the country....
Beautiful fields, moth and those darling, darling girls. Looks like your heart is full with all that you have been doing in June. My Hank has recurrent ear infections because his ears are so deep, like an Irish Setter. We are trying the meds you are on that last 30 days and a sensitive diet because it could be more of an allergy to food. Happy Summer.

Life is good here a bit north in Michigan from your summer home. We social distance, wear our masks, wash our hands, wash our hands, again and again. I think it was blogger Jeanie that gave me a cool idea for hand washing. Instead of a hand towel available for guests, I purchased a bunch of colorful wash cloths. I stack them up, and anyone visiting the guest bath, has their own personal “cloth towel!” Mister Irish has loved the idea. He is a bit over the top with hand washing, he really likes his personal cloth!
Not just saying it . . . I am trying your recipe. I will let you know.
Madelyn and Lucy June . . . A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E. .. . Oh my, I want to hold, cuddle, squeeze both of them!

Your grandchildren are beautiful. God Bless. Marilyn
Your girls - little people and little Poppy - are adorable! I love the idea of remaking the wedding gown into a christening gown. Lucy June's is so beautiful, so are she and Madelyn (and their names!). I just texted that idea to my niece who is pregnant with her first, a girl. That niece used had mother's (my sister's) wedding gown made over into a cute dress for the rehearsal dinner. I've been a cooking and baking fool throughout COVID. Hope your 4th is a good one. Be safe and well. Rita
Hi Jane...love your beautiful grandchilds so cute both....and Oww poor Poppy give her a big hug from me...❤️🐾...
1) How are you coping with the pandemic right now? I am doing more things right now ...and glad friends come along and visit me...so I am not alone anymore....🙏🍀
2). Anything good happening in your garden? How's your weather? Super humid and hot here in the Midwest.
I have no garden but two terrace...and everything is blooming goog 🌸🌺 we have now a few days rain after two verry hot weeks
3) Cooking or trying new recipes?
No...I am not 😔
4). Activities that keep you happy and moving?
I walk with Leaf manny times..but I am feeling so sad at the moment....I try to do every day with laugh but there are too much tears...I am so sad that my life is changing so much right now...be on your ouwn after 30 years is so difficult...
So fun to catch up with you today, Jane. Loved it all...and Poppy looks so cute on that sack - the little girls - they are just darling - and that moth - incredible! So glad we don't just mate, live for 5 days and then we are gone haha Take care♥
Hello! I can't get over how Maddie looks like your daughter and Lucy like her Dad. So lovely the both! So glad you are your family are doing well. We are fine. We started venturing out and then saw how many people were not wearing masks so we have retreated back home. But I dont mind, I'm happiest here. You take care. Kit
Your pasta dish looks great, your garden is coming along and those little ones are just adorable. I'm in Florida and as everyone knows Covid is terrible here so I haven't gone shopping since the first of March. Stay safe.
That's a gorgeous moth. I'm glad you were able to attend the christening, but sorry that your husband was unable to do so. Around here, on Vancouver Island, we have just 2 cases of Covid and are still being careful, although I've been to the hair salon, the physiotherapist, and we've seen family and close friends, but no church or large gatherings. The end of the school year was very strange with a socially distanced graduation, but we made it work. As our provincial health officer always says, "Be kind, be calm, be safe."
Jane - most important things first - Madelyn and Lucy are adorable - two sweet little faces that brought a smile to mine. I envy that you have a place to escape, and have a change of scenery. I am really starting to feel closed in even though I'm outside as much as possible. Poor Poppy! My dog was sick earlier in the month, and thankfully she is better now. Oh, that moth! Amazing! In answer to your questions: 1) I'm coping okay, but must admit that it's getting harder because there now seems to be no end in sight to this madness. It makes me angry that people aren't complying with wearing masks, and social distancing! The numbers are good here in NJ and NY -things are opening properly to keep the virus from spiraling out of control.Wish other states would have learned from us. 2) The flowers in my garden are doing great! We fenced in the yard last summer so this is the first time the deer haven't eaten everything. 3) I never love to cook, but I'm getting tired of the same things, so I recently made Huli Huli chicken (good!) and a pasta dish with chicken sausage, corn and leeks (good!) and a Korean meatballs recipe that I got from another blogger (delish!). 4. Activities, hmmmmm. I'm exercising 5 days a week and doing yoga stretches (which I've always done, even pre-Covid). Otherwise, taking pictures, social distancing with friends, and eating way too much. My goodness, I've written an entire blog post here. Amy xoxo
Wow those two grands are so stinkin cute I was to kiss their adorable cheeks off. Lucy June and her pie face is just too much. And the sweet smile of her sister. Oh be still my heart.
Still distancing - so not seeing any family or friends and it's been very hard. I try not to get too sad, but my little grand is growing up so fast and for nearly 5 months I haven't been able to see it. Thanks the good Lord above for FT and texting, though. Can't even imagine not having it. I'd be in the loony bin.
Glad your pootch is all better. That's difficult.
Big hugs. Stay safe, stay well.

Hello Jane! Madelyn and Lucy June already have great fashion style and I know their grandmother loves to give them pretty things. I loved finding out what you've been up to and seeing garden pics along with ones of the beautiful moth. I have a file I keep of moth and butterfly pictures but I don't think I have this one. I can't help but feeling really sad that their lives are so short. Your orzo dish sounds delicious! I do love the slippery feeling of orzo. In answer to your questions, number 1 changes from day to day, month to month, doesn't it? I go along fine and then surprise myself by bursting into tears. I don't mind staying home but I do miss out of town family being able to come stay with us for a weekend and having big family celebrations. Our garden is a daily source of delight and comfort, as is cooking. My only exercise consists of doing my PT exercises here at home and walking in our yard of 2 1/2 acres and housework. How I wish I had begun yoga when I was younger! My youngest sister has stuck to it all her adult life and looks wonderful.
Thanks For Sharing A lot of important and useful blog, i have been already bookmarked your blog and come to read it on daily basic if I can get the spouse to concur, yours is so a lot prettier. Much thanks to you for sharing!

So I contacted him and told him my problems after a brief consultation with him. He Prepared and sent me the herbal medicine and I took it as he instructed me, Then he called me 3weeks after to go and have a check-up!! It brought out testing negative, I felt calm a bit, and the doctors day for more clarity I will have to come back after 1week of which I did and tested negative for the second time !!

Hi everyone I'm Mrs. ALEKSI TAISIYA, My husband divorced me 2 years ago to live with another woman and i have tried have him back but i could not, so i try to do many things to get him back and he refuse to come back. One faithful Friday morning, I visit a forum for tips on how to get your Ex back and there i saw a lady testifying on how Dr.AKHERE helped her to get her husband back after he was tie down with a spell by another woman. Although I never believed in spiritual work I reluctantly tried him because I was desperate and i contact him and explain my problems to him, to my greatest surprise Dr.AKHERE helped me to bring back my husband after 5days and now my relationship is more perfect just as he promised. Getting your ex back permanently does not only bring back someone you love but it will also reunite your lovers feelings. My husband now treats me like a Queen and always says he loves me all the time. If you are passing through difficulties in your relationship, Doctor AKHERE can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and some other things. I can assure he's highly potent and reliable. Email him for urgent help [AKHERETEMPLE@gmail.com ] or +2349057261346 .

Hello, friends! So glad to be back (again, so soon!). A little odd that when we were really sheltered in place for several months, I just never felt inclined to post. Maybe I'm just feeling a little more energy now. I'm not doing a whole lot more other than seeing family and grocery shopping, a few trips to the garden nurseries. Going back and forth to the lake gives me a nice change of scenery. Illinois is now open with a lot of restrictions and our numbers have gone down. I pray everyone continues to practice the social distancing, masks, and hand washing. How is everything in your area?
Anyway, you know I like to start with a pretty photo. I'm working very hard on my garden beds here in the city because I've been here longer than usual. We have a huge backyard as far as city norms; great for badminton, corn in the hole, kids running through the sprinkler, a little soccer, space for the dogs to play.
[Image]
This is the north side and that's crazy Poppy chewing on a stick or something. The afternoon shadows make it hard to see the border left of my little woodland garden. I have sedum, phlox, lilies, spiderwort, speedwell, milkweed, and tons of tulips and daffodils, Once those spring bulbs are spent, I pull off the brown leaves and fold the rest over, securing loosely with a rubber band. Never cut them to make room for the rest of your flowers, they need them for nutrient. Doing what I do makes room for your summer plants. The south side has a bed which is undergoing a lot of changes. Whew, I'm worn out and sore every evening. A long hot shower and scrubbing the dirt off is the best remedy. Sometimes I wonder how I do all the bending, squatting, and lifting with all the metal and screws in my back. Maybe it's a good surgeon or maybe it's just good stretching. 😏
[Image]
I bought a lot of plants at the nursery at the lake. They have a super selection of perennials and the prices are very reasonable. This was my haul. I have this fancy dandy plastic wagon thing. I place all my plants (and also groceries) in this and roll it wherever needed. What a time saver and easy on the 'ol back. With my plants, I can add some water from the hose into it so that they can bottom water until I get them planted.
[Image]
The other day Poppy was making a fuss near my day lilies. The Husband went over and then called me to come quick. Here was this magnificent moth. I don't know how I knew it was a moth, perhaps the huge, fuzzy body.
[Image]
He carefully picked it up with this magazine cover and brought it around to our patio table. It wasn't moving much at all. Then we took pics and let it go in some greenery outside the backyard, safe from our dogs. I managed to find it on Google, it's called a Polyphemus moth. The photos I saw were incredible. Our guy was actually a lot smaller than some. We learned they only live about five
days so maybe it was near the end as it was so chill with us. 😥. They have no mouths, so they don't eat, and they are only here to mate and leave something behind. How it landed here, I'm not sure. We had several trees trimmed in April so maybe there were cocoons. What an amazing experience!
[Image]
Sausage, Vegetables & Kalamata Olives over Orzo.
I'm going to break things up here with a recipe. This is actually my own picture- Ta-Da! You all know how bad I feel about the poor quality of my photos of food. I probably share 1/4 of the dishes I make because of the hideous pictures I take which I think turned out delicious.
I keep my grocery list and cost to a minimum mostly because of my feelings about being in public places during this pandemic. I also go back and forth to the lake so much that I either cart food to and fro in cooling bags, or I spend more money shopping there. The verdict is: I often wind down to what I have in cabinets, and the freezer and fridge. I love the challenge of cooking with just a few items, such inventiveness! Without further ado, this meal worked really well one night and I've vowed to make it many more times.
2 Italian sausage links, casings removed, chopped 4 plum tomatoes, sliced
2 c fresh spinach, loosely chopped, or 5 oz of frozen, thawed and water squeezed out 1/4 c red onion, thinly sliced 2 large cloves garlic (or more), minced 6-8 oz uncooked orzo 1 c whole Kalamata olives I T olive oil + more as needed
Pinch of red pepper flakes S & P to taste
Start the orzo in a pot of boiling water according to package directions. Once done, drain, reserving 1 cup of the starchy water. Return the pasta to the pot with a splash of olive oil and keep covered.
Meanwhile, sauté the sausage over medium heat until almost cooked through. Add the tomatoes, spinach, onion, an d red pepper flakes. Cook over low heat about 3 minutes until just softened. Stir in the garlic for the last minute, adding a bit of the pasta water as needed to keep everything saucy. Divide the orzo over 4 plates. Top with the sausage mixture. Scatter the Kalamato olives all around. Adjust seasonings to your taste. Serves 4. We had a few slices of Italian bread with this dish. Absolutely wonderful for using just a little bits and pieces from the fridge just waiting to be used up. Let me know if you give this recipe a try. :)

Lucy June
I came home from the lake to celebrate Emily's 33rd birthday. The memories of her birth always come back so vividly. She was my firstborn, I was twenty-seven years old and so naive. We hadn't even considered names, and never thought to ask whether it was a boy or girl. I'm so grateful for the experience. Many haven't gone through this but I hope for many, that just being there for young family members, the children of friends, fostering or adopting fills your heart...and for those who continue to try, all my prayers.🙏
We had Emily, Mike, and the two littles ones over for a steak dinner with crab cakes--surf and turf. I need to brush up on the crab cakes, I made them earlier and refrigerated them not wanting the kitchen to smell like grease and fish. I reheated them in the oven before serving and they were limp and flavorless. Bad mistake. The chocolate cake made up for it!
And Lucy June was christened last Sunday. Just grandparents, the godmother and father. The church was empty, and the lunch celebration was limited to six people as mandated at the time, so The Husband I couldn't attend. But the church was the best part. I love the whole celebration, as in the past with all of our grands and our own children.
Lucy wore the same gown as Madelyn. It was custom made from Emily's wedding dress, all satin and tulle ruffles along the bottom. It's a beautiful keepsake.
[Image]
I can't get enough of Madelyn. She was a little out of sorts and confused by the celebration although she attends Sunday mass. Look at that dress! I gifted Emily with some dresses and outfits from Boden USA, If you are familiar with the British company, it's just the most precious patterns and fabric, and the best quality you can get for your money. and she's hooked. Em washes all the baby clothes on gentle with a mild soap and hangs each and every piece to dry.
[Image]
Madelyn & Lucy
[Image]
So--my little Poppy girl made it through the spaying and had her stitches removed at a veterinarian clinic near the cottage. Then she came down with painful infections in both ears. The vet asked if she had been in the water and she hadn't yet, but she rolls in everything, including the marshy grass near the shore. The doctor treated her with a med that lasts 30 days and in the meantime, she can't get wet. So we haven't been able to get her used to swimming, although I doubt she has any qualms. While hanging out along the water before the infection, she gifted me with a bunch of weeds, lily pads, and a dead snail. And I can't bathe her!!
[Image]
A snap from the front of the veterinarian hospital. I talk a lot about the lake but there is so much more to love and be grateful for in just being surrounded by fields, farms, barns, and a wide open green paradise with fresh air.
I'm off again tomorrow, the last day of June. In past years I've settled in around May. Everything is off due to the Covid, and sometimes I feel I've missed the summer. But we haven't, it's only June. I'll be back the week after the 4th of July for an appointment and (finally) a hair appointment! I'm back to being brown, and just a bit of gray strands (thank you good genes!), and I haven't had a cut since January. I like my hair long but this is looking scraggly.
SO:
1) How are you coping with the pandemic right now?
2). Anything good happening in your garden? How's your weather? Super humid and hot here in the Midwest.
3) Cooking or trying new recipes?
4). Activities that keep you happy and moving?
Again,
Love and Lysol,
Jane

4. Activities, hmmmmm. I'm exercising 5 days a week and doing yoga stretches (which I've always done, even pre-Covid). Otherwise, taking pictures, social distancing with friends, and eating way too much.
My goodness, I've written an entire blog post here.

Oh those sweet little girls bring just joy to my heart and a smile to my lips! That moth was a fun find I am sure. Stay safe dear one!

Hi Jane,
Wow those two grands are so stinkin cute I was to kiss their adorable cheeks off. Lucy June and her pie face is just too much. And the sweet smile of her sister. Oh be still my heart.
Still distancing - so not seeing any family or friends and it's been very hard. I try not to get too sad, but my little grand is growing up so fast and for nearly 5 months I haven't been able to see it. Thanks the good Lord above for FT and texting, though. Can't even imagine not having it. I'd be in the loony bin.
Glad your pootch is all better. That's difficult.
Big hugs. Stay safe, stay well.

Hello Jane! Madelyn and Lucy June already have great fashion style and I know their grandmother loves to give them pretty things. I loved finding out what you've been up to and seeing garden pics along with ones of the beautiful moth. I have a file I keep of moth and butterfly pictures but I don't think I have this one. I can't help but feeling really sad that their lives are so short. Your orzo dish sounds delicious! I do love the slippery feeling of orzo. In answer to your questions, number 1 changes from day to day, month to month, doesn't it? I go along fine and then surprise myself by bursting into tears. I don't mind staying home but I do miss out of town family being able to come stay with us for a weekend and having big family celebrations. Our garden is a daily source of delight and comfort, as is cooking. My only exercise consists of doing my PT exercises here at home and walking in our yard of 2 1/2 acres and housework. How I wish I had begun yoga when I was younger! My youngest sister has stuck to it all her adult life and looks wonderful.
Love to you,
Dewena

I felt frustrated, so I tried to seek help online when I came across this website https://chiefdrluckyherbaltherapy.wordpress.com/ of a doctor called Chief Dr Lucky. Also I saw a lot of testimonials about him on how he uses natural herbal medicine to cure HIV AIDS and numerous Infections & different kinds of disease as well. So I contacted him and told him my problems after a brief consultation with him. He Prepared and sent me the herbal medicine and I took it as he instructed me, Then he called me 3weeks after to go and have a check-up!! It brought out testing negative, I felt calm a bit, and the doctors day for more clarity I will have to come back after 1week of which I did and tested negative for the second time !!

Hi everyone I'm Mrs. ALEKSI TAISIYA, My husband divorced me 2 years ago to live with another woman and i have tried have him back but i could not, so i try to do many things to get him back and he refuse to come back. One faithful Friday morning, I visit a forum for tips on how to get your Ex back and there i saw a lady testifying on how Dr.AKHERE helped her to get her husband back after he was tie down with a spell by another woman. Although I never believed in spiritual work I reluctantly tried him because I was desperate and i contact him and explain my problems to him, to my greatest surprise Dr.AKHERE helped me to bring back my husband after 5days and now my relationship is more perfect just as he promised. Getting your ex back permanently does not only bring back someone you love but it will also reunite your lovers feelings. My husband now treats me like a Queen and always says he loves me all the time. If you are passing through difficulties in your relationship, Doctor AKHERE can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and some other things. I can assure he's highly potent and reliable. Email him for urgent help [AKHERETEMPLE@gmail.com ] or +2349057261346 .
