Round Robin Challenge: The Creative Side Of You

The challenge this week is The Creative Side Of You! Creative, eh? I always say I'm not very creative...except with cooking, so I guess a picture or two of something I made will have to do!


First up is a blueberry shake! I picked the blueberries and added them along with some sugar to vodka to make a lovely blueberry infused alcohol. For a special drink, I mixed some of the blueberry vodka with some Bailey's...yum!


Here are some scallops I panfried, along with some cherry tomatoes I grew in my garden, with some swiss chard & pasta. Delish!

My Knight in Shining Armor

Lots of bikers dressed up for Halloween in Salem, MA yesterday.

Books and a new look!

How do you like the new template? Heather did it for me, she's so dang talented!

This would be a perfect headstone for me, don't you agree?

Round Robin Challenge: Very Scary

The challenge this week is Very Scary! Another easy one for me; I love Halloween photos, and Halloween is scary, so voila!


Took this shot in Salem, MA last Halloween. I'm 95% sure this was all an act...but it still creeped me out. I felt such sad vibes from the 'pet'. It's hard to tell in the photo, but he had a huge rack of tree branches decorated with leaves and pieces of torn black cloth. Very strange. If you view this picture at the original size, you can see many more details, like how the 'pet' is looking at the girl, and the X on his forehead...very creepy!

Here are some others:

Dead girls on a pumpkin bed (not really dead!)


My dog, Wolf and my friend, Diana, dressed in a camoflage suit


Someone went all out on their Halloween decorations this year!


This was taken up in Mason NH at a house where Elizabeth Jones illustrated her version of the book, Little Red Riding Hood. That's the wolf in grannie's clothing in the bed!


Saw this in the basement of my friend's condo...it was a girls school before it was a condo and a jail before that!


Same condo basement...see the hand peeking out around the door?


Great topic, Julie!!!

Clouds over a sand dune

A beautiful day at the beach!

Blazing glory

This is what autumn looks like to me...beautiful foliage, pumpkins and blue skies. What does autumn look like to you?

Hunter's Moon

It was a night made for werewolves and ghouls, shadows in cemeteries and black cats...

Round Robin Challenge: ABCs of Autumn

The challenge this week is ABCs of Autumn. Ahhhh, Autumn! My favorite season, which has my favorite holiday! If think if I went through all my pictures, autumn shots would far outnumber anything else...well...ocean pictures would come close! Here we go!

J is for Jack-o-lantern!

Poor lil vampire girl looks like she had one too many pints of blood, eh?

S is for Sunflower!

Sunflowers might be considered a summer flower, but this one is entering autumn in a blaze of glory!

Great topic, T.J.!!!
