Things that add the spice or flavor to life

This blog was inspired by my children, my pets and friends. Through years of trying to entertain children I found other families, friends and community groups to collaborate with for ideas and resources. Those who know me, know how much children, pets, nature and creativity mean to me. The little the things that add some fun and flavor to your life, like art, creative cooking, nature activities, and fun facts. I was blessed with, and extremely thankful for, many of these things in my life. My mission here is to offer ideas, and inspiration among friends and put together a network of resources, including a list of organizations that do good in our community and a way to support them.

My bird count and bird to do list

I would like to thank my friend Michelle for posting and asking some questions! What was my bird count you ask? Well, I did not even attempt to count the flocks that took over my yard for a good portion of the official count. My regular birds were easy to count. I usually have about 8 cardinals, a mix of male and female; 6-8 Juncos; 8-10 black cap chiccadees, 2 nuthatch; 3-4 house finch; an assortment of other sparrows; 4-5 titmice; 3-4 bluejays (who also eat my cat food); occasional starlings and a few pesky squirrels.

Dont now what those are? Come on over for a cup tea and I will show you! You can also sample the banana bread. And the cookies are delicious- I ran out of white flour so I used whole wheat and they are good and healthier too!

  1. I haven't seen any cardinals or blue jays yet, but there are plenty of sparrows,few titmice, and a starling here and there I like the starling they have a soothing chirp. Whatever the other birds were are probably the chickadees, nuthatches and finch...I enjoy the sounds of birds ^v^

    Tj gets that vaccine in the morning, and I have some things to get done but I will give you a call today...would love to come for a visit!! =)
