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.

Turtle Saves

Anyone who really knows me, also knows how much I care about wildlife including frogs, toads and turtles. So yes, I am one of those people who stops to let them or help them cross the road. So far this year my turtle saves are four. I think they were all painted turtles, but I wil do some research and find out.

There is one turtle - I think it is the same one - that crosses Denton Lake Road on a regular basis. Next time I see it, I will mark it to be sure ( no harm will come to the turtle )
