Woo hoo again. Yes, definitely summer. And it's hotter than hades here. But our nights are still pretty cool so we can cool off the house. Have a better day...
Namaste, A.
I celebrated with hot dogs for lunch... real ones with meat in them (Well, Oscar Mayer fat free hotdogs)!
Oh yum...I will go for two years or so without eating something like that and then have this incredible craving for a nice, yummy, juicy hot dog, with the works, including yellow mustard (so plebe) and relish!!!
happy solstice to ya!!!!!!!!!!love the fire flies, makes it feel so much more like summer when you see the fireflies out and about, do you all have them in californy
they have such a mystical quality about them, i always invision them as fairies with little lanterns flying around.
my day has not be a whole lot of fun but interesting, wrote about it on diesel gypsy blog. but i love this time of year.looking forwards to getting home and having the ole man fire up the grill he got for pappy day........
take care, you will love this fire fly blog because it is wider and you can fit more stuff on it.........take care
blessed be
You had the fireflies before I did, so you were my inspiration. Yes, I love them. No, we don't have them in Californy. But I grew up with them, in the countryside outside Philadelphia (Buck County). Yes, I also see them as little fairies.
Thanks for the support about the blog...I love the fireflies.
Namaste, enjoy the Solstice. It is hotter than Hades out here ;~)
we used to squish them on our fingers and turn their poor little dead bodies into glowing gemstones. Children are sooooooooooooo cruel. I am sure you never did anything like that.
Oh yes, I did Naranja...mean old me when I was a cruel little kiddie.
we use to catch em and put in quart jars, now we just hit them with the windshield, their juices light up the wind shield right nicely
..........there seems to be a shortage of then of late, when I was a kid in the Ozark mtn. they were everywhere now I am lucky to see a half dozen of them...prob. pesticides people use on their yards........anyhoo I love those little guys, but as bugs, they are pretty as bugs go. I hate creepy crawly's and spiders are the worse.....i don't want to even go there.

And young M used to know Renfield very well...haha. Geez, Naranja. I am truly melting around here. It was 103 yesterday and might be hotter today. If you don't hear from me, it's because I am a puddle...no fooling.
i never drink....vine (bela lugosi)
loved those movies...enjoy your evening, even if you are not drinking 'vine' - just bluuud...
What I had been referring to above was the newer Dracula movie, the one with Gary Oldman, and Tom Waits playing Renfield.
i really need to have my house sprayed for bugs since we are on the road all the time, i don't mind the web makers cause they stay put, i hate the hunters that crawl all over the place, they seem to like our middle bed room and the bathroom that is where I kill them all the time.........my eldest daughter when she was living at home always had to check her bed to make sure she had no visiters, now hey someone needs to live in my space while we are gone.... I have to set mice traps when i get home cause they the mice like to live in my house too.............hate that
I have to set mice traps when i get home cause they the mice like to live in my house too.............hate thatYeah, it would be better to have someone stay in your space than spray...I just found out from Saik the other day that the makers of Roundup (which we had always been told was OK, even from normally organic folks) paid for the research touting the benefits of Roundup, but that actually it might be implicated in bee colony collapse. I've always been organic, but lately as I've gotten older and we've had more and more problems with a locust tree out front, I got lazy and began using it. Wow...I don't think so...I'll dig those boogers out.
I am going to buy one of those torches for weeds but it won't work for things near wood.
I hear that vinegar will kill weeds, I wonder if alcohol would do the sane, rubbing alcohol or some cheap rotgut. I am totally against chemical weed and insect killers. If something can't manage on it's own it deserves to die ( plants) and regular vacuuming will keep down the spiders.
However in Montgomery Alabama we had roaches the size of mice( called palmettos; hahahah a roach by any other name..... and I would have used atomic power if I had to.
As for the Tom Waits comment. duh...... renfield. double duh. Know any redhead jokes?

Damn...I was the one who said vinegar. So far it hasn't done much of anything to kill weeds. Those boogers. I was out weeding today.
Love you Naranja! And I love the book! (yeah, I gotta begin collecting redhead jokes now ;~)
Yeah, I think there are shortages of lots of nice bugs, but probably a proliferation of the bad bugs, thanks to the environmental degradations going on...I love those little guys too. Alicestreet's cat eats spiders, so you will have to borrow her ;~)
