Kansas! Is that cool or what? Maybe it's just me but I think it's kinda of quirky. The Persian Pickle Club is such a good book. Like I said, it's set in Kansas during Depression times. It's a story of friendships that bind
women together through good times and bad times. I'm nearly finished with this book...and I really don't want it to end. I feel like I know these women and want their story to continue. Have you ever felt that way about a book?
I just took a quick break to feed a little stray kitty cat and my hummers were just zooming all over the yard....I dashed in the house for my camera and look at this little fellow I captured sitting on the phone line. If you click on the picture you can really see him. I think it is funny they just love to sit on the line...maybe they are calling a friend.I know this is kind of a chatty post...maybe it's the caffeine..but I'm nearly finished.

Hi Linda,
Happy weekend to you....thanks for dropping by....Betty
What a "happy" mug.
That little hummer is a cutie. I haven't seen any around here lately, and it's a bit a downer as they are one of my fave little birds. In March, when my jasmine "bush" is blooming, the hummers are all around. I enjoy watching them.
Congrats on your award. I hope you are enjoying your weekend and thank you for stopping by and visiting me. I love making new friends, so don't stay away to long.
I'm going to go check out the info on that book now...Amazon here I come!
Cheers!

So, what did you think of Mamma Mia? I thought it was a lot of fun - and so did most of the people in the theater with me. Picked up the soundtrack while in store getting my new cd player but as the cd player hasn't been installed yet the cd hasn't been unwrapped!
Hi:
I just want to tell you I have also given you an award today on my blog. You are such a nice person on comments. You mug is great and nothing like a good book.
I am planning to go see MaMa Mia also.
Have a great day.
Nancy
Hey Linda! Just reading my emails and read your comment on Mamma Mia. Wasn't it fun? Just as well I went by myself - I don't think hubby would have liked it and I would still be listening to him moan about having to go!
Hi Linda,
Thanks, I will.
Love your new mug, it's so bright and cheery.
Congrats on your award!!
Hope you had fun at the movie.
Have a great week,
Rosemary

Thanks for coming by my blog, I enjoyed your post today,I have a favorite mug too, and yes I have read some books and soooo regretted when it was almost finished.Sigh, the good ones always go fast.....

Linda I have always asked this Q.:
why do birds sit on wires. In the coldest winter days one sees numerous
flocks of birds sitting on a wire? Why?
That lone bird on the wire better get home to his resting place or is it lost? I'm full of Questions tonight!
Linda, the mug looks so cute...I think your ramblings are cute even if it is the coffee...keep them coming. Dianntha ps I might get a copy of the book and check it out
Thank you for the award Linda! I am so happy to receive it! I have that book and need to read it! I am glad that you recommend it. Your mug is very pretty and how special to have receieved it as a gift from your dear friend, you will always think of her when you drink from it!
Have a great day!
Hugs, Sharon
Hi Linda,

Congrats on your award and have a great day!
Hugs,

Hi Linda, what a happy coffee mug! I also feel that way about some books, such a loss when they do end! Take Care - Rachaelxo
Oh your little hummer friend is so cute! There are a couple that have been busy buzzing me this summer. I just re-filled a feeder for them this morning. The girls and I love to watch them each day. Hope you had a great weekend!

Hi Linda,
What a great mug and your book sounds wonderful - it's always great not wanting a book to come to an ending. I'm like that with old movies (with happy endings!).
Did you like Mamma Mia?
That's a great picture on the wires, just look at those eyes sparkle!
Happy day!
