I had a blog. Or at least it seems like that long ago ;) I could promise to be a better blogger but then I would just set everyone up for disappointment... hee.
Happy New Year! Since I didn't actually have a chance to say that 6 months ago.
What in the world have I been up to? Well, I worked a bit, I drew a bit, I fell even more in love with my Beau, I cooked a lot and baked, studied some French (language and history), planned a trip to Europe, lived in Paris for a month, visited Belgium and Holland and got a canoe.
Home again, jiggity jig.
And one of the best things about being home in June... hummingbirds! I just love these little creatures. My thirsty, window pets. We seem to have a family which we have named Baron (red throat), Buzzy and Baby Buzzy (otherwise known as Zippy).
Exhibit One: The Hummingbird Feeder:
The feeder has large red, plastic "flowers" which the hummingbirds stick there needle beaks through to lap up the sugar water. They feed quite often since they exert so much energy in their rapid little wings.
Last summer, the Beau and I were lounging on the deck having a nice conversation when what I thought was a huge bug landed on my chest. I quickly swatted it away while the Beau shrieked, "Careful, its a hummingbird!" It seemed to have mistaken me for its feeder:
Exhibit Two: The shirt I was wearing whilst under hummingbird attack:
I don't wear this shirt in the garden anymore.

Yikes! Yes, don't wear that shirt again, for goodness sake! Glad you're back. That's crazy you did all of that stuff. I'm jealous about Europe!
Its about time you got back at it.
