What a lovely Basket of Flowers brought home from a Special Service at our Church.

*****

Flowers are Beautiful, many people have fond memories of certain ones. Just think of what particular ones that you like. Maybe put one in a vase today in the Kitchen or your Living Room. Flowers are lovely to have in any room in the house, they make the room feel special.

We have a New Book just published to look at. It is a Poetry Book plus Verses and Short stories to read. It is available now on the Amazon site. Just click on the Link below and it will show you what it is all about.

I hope you enjoy some of the writings in the book!

Here is a one of the writings from the book on Page 66.

The Wind is Blowing.

The Wind is blowing the leaves are flying. It is so gusty the Wind today.

Let us watch as it blows things away. To stand in the midst of the Wind is great,

to feel it move around your body. Also to blow through your hair. Where did it come from?

Where does it go to? We can never know. Listen to the Wind in the trees.

The trees seem to love it as they sway back and forth with their branches.

You cannot touch the Wind but you can feel it when it blows against your body.

Sometimes it can try to blow you along. Then other times it is just a gentle Breeze.

I love to hear the rustle of the leaves in the trees. To watch them move back and forth like dancing to the Wind.

This is a Painting that I did of a windblown tree here in North Western Australia.

It’s nice to Work!

A Lovely arrangement of Real Flowers from my Garden plus Artificial ones make up this pretty picture.

Do you think it is nice to work? Well it all depends on what sort of work it is of course. We are all meant to work for our living not just to rely on others to supply us with whatever we need. Unless of course we are unable sometimes in our life to be able to. Then we must rely on others to help us. But if we are able bodied sometimes we can choose the work that we like to do. To be self employed is great but to work for someone or an organization then we should do our best for them and feel a sense of achievement of our work. Remember they are paying us wages so we can live life.

What a joy it is to do some work that we really like, maybe Craft work that we can sell and really enjoy doing it. Two of the things that I like to do are: Writing and Painting. So will put a poem here that will be in my next book (hopefully) plus I can put a Painting on to show you. I have had Exhibitions on an off for quite a few years… Yes, that is work but it is work that I can enjoy. Am hoping you can enjoy some of the work that you do, especially if you are working for someone or helping them.

So it can be nice to Work!

Here is a Poem:

* Today *

Today will never come again, so what are we going to do? It gives us time to think for a while of what a lovely day it could be. First let us think of our days that are past, they seem to have gone so very fast. But today we can do something different again. Something special just for today. Maybe phone a friend and have a chat. This maybe our last day, fancy that. However we may have many more days to come. Each day will come – never to return. Because Tomorrow will be another day to treasure. Today will be gone and when – Tomorrow comes it will be called Today!

Here is a sample Oil Painting of my work that I did sometime ago, along the Fascine near where I live.

Lunch Time !

This is a photo of the beautiful Wild Flowers in North West Australia – two of my Grandchildren walking in the middle of them.

After walking amongst the wild flowers and going back for lunch…..what to have? That is the question! Well how about a slice of toast & butter with some tinned Tuna in Olive Oil spread out on it. Today I topped mine with sliced Beetroot, Parmesan Cheese, sprinkling of Garlic Powder, White Pepper and Mayonnaise. It was very nice and made a nutritious lunch. Very tasty. Best to eat with a knife and fork. Sorry I don’t have a photo of it, never thought about that until I had eaten it.!!!

Here is a photo of my Cookery Book….. the above recipe is not in it…. but there are some really good ones in the eBook book which is available from this Link: “Carnarvon Favourite Recipes”

*****

Here is a Poem:

Along the Pathway

I walked down the Pathway and saw a flower. It was morning time not the earliest hour. The sun was out and the bloom was beautiful. Petals so soft stretching up towards the sun. Quite large Petals so soft and new, opening up for me and you. Glorious orange and red in colour growing on the sturdy branches of the green leafed tree. Down the Pathway it adds some colour – to  brighten our day and to see the wonder, the wonder of creation afresh each day. As I walk along the Pathway. Day by day.

Cyclone

What a lovely Hanging Basket of plants and flowers, which was in our back garden.

This time of the year (January) we are watching out for a Cyclone that is coming down from the North along our coastline. Hoping of course that it will go out to sea and fizzle out with no damage to our towns dotted along the coast of N.W. Australia.

All things like hanging Baskets for instance are a hazard and need to be removed before they get blown about by the Cyclonic winds and Tropical rain. There is a lot to do when Cyclones are about so that we can keep our houses and properties safe, like putting away anything that is likely to be moved by gale force winds.

Most people already know now how to prepare but it is good to get new information from our radio’s or television Weather Forecasts when a Cyclone is approaching.

*****

It is nice to sit and read while waiting for a Cyclone – (that is when you have done everything necessary to be prepared)

So will put a couple of links on here for you to consider:

The book ‘Jessie’s Story’ is about my life, I am the baby in the Photo on the Cover of the book. It has a bit of History of my life during the Second World War and different places that we have lived in before and coming to Australia. Where I now live, having emigrated in 1973. I have had excellent reports of interest in this Book. I hope you can enjoy reading it.

*****

The next book is about two horses that fall in love and is an excellent book for all young Horse Lovers. Emily likes to sit and read as you can see. The book is available from Amazon site: Here is the Link: https://amzn.to/3rpA17F

*****

Here is a Poem for today:

Lunch Time:……………………….

It’s nearly lunch time now and what have I done? Nothing much it seems under the Sun. But I did get up and not stay in bed. Mainly because this body needs to be fed. So up I got to start off the day, to get washed and dressed. We must get that out of the way, before we think of Breakfast. Now what shall it be? Something cooked or something on toast? Maybe some fruit or cereal as well as the toast? Goodness me the time has flown.

Never mind, it will be Lunch time soon..

Our Changing Life!

When is a Baby not a Baby ?
When is a child not a child?
When is a teenager not a teenager?
When is a teenager an adult and a parent?
An adult can become a Mother.
Also an adult can become a Father.
The Mother later becomes a Grandmother
and a Father likewise becomes a Grandfather.
After this they can become Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother.
They can become G.G. Grandparents but
not often do they live that long.
Then they are gone and the Cycle keeps on, keeping on.
So there we are – a Baby, a Child, a teenager then an Adult.
Life continues in a never ending circle, with all theses stages of life.
While on this Earth we have a Destiny.
Each one is different, each individual, is different in colour, creed and  body.
Be yourself – the way you were made, as a Special Baby, Child, Teenager and Adult.
So where are you at now?
Enjoy your life if you can, just where you are now in this time of life.
Soon it will be gone and the next Stage of life will be there.
You do not see the transgression from one stage to the next.
It just happens without our help.
And we are there.
…………………….                                                                                                                                                                                           Jessie 14th. Oct. 2014. Tuesday

I Hope you like the above little verse which I seem to have written some time ago.

However it is still relevant today.

So we should really begin to enjoy our life if we can, where-ever we are.

The Photo on the cover of the book above shows the changing stages of life. I am the baby in the picture, then my Mother, my Grandmother and my Great Grandmother. So the book is the story of part of my life that many people have found very interesting to read. Starting off as a child in the Second World War and up to the present day (at the time it was written).!P

Here is a Link to the book if you would like to see what it is about.

It is nice to have Today!

The above is one of my Oil Paintings of some precious lovely Flowers.

Well what do you think? It is nice for us to have Today as we cannot be sure if we will have tomorrow. So let us make the most of this day that we a living in. Maybe do something nice for ourselves or for someone else. It could be just to pick a flower to put in a vase in our kitchen, dining room or lounge room. Or we could find one to give as a gift, even a single flower maybe a blessing to someone.

It is a good thought to have some fresh flowers in doors not just artificial ones as they freshen up the room for us.

Here is a Poem:

Butterflies

Butterflies were flitting around as I walked along the garden path.

They were flitting all around me. Pretty coloured wings they had

that fluttered back and forth as they flew around.

Such a lovely sight to behold. So gently did they alight

upon the flower blossoms. Probably taking a small breath

before taking off into the wind again.

So incredible to see the patterns on their wings.

Each Butterfly the same as each other.

Where did they come from and where will they go?

Maybe it’s not for us to know.

*****

Recipe for you today:

Stuffed Dates.

Ingredients: Pitted Dates + Marzipan.

Cut a small slice of Marzipan and put into the opening in the Date where the stone has been taken out. Arrange on a Platter.

Cover and keep cold in fridge until needed.

The recipe is taken from our Recipe book. Here is the Link: “Carnarvon Favourite Recipes”

Runner Beans?

Fresh Picked Brown Leaves with Artificial Roses.

They look lovely in this display ready to take to Church.

Would also make a nice presentation in your home or office for a few days.

***

How about a Runner Bean Recipe:

Runner Beans, Garlic Powder, White Pepper, Oil.

***

Wash, trim, and cut the Runner Beans (the way you like them). Put in a Microwave dish. Sprinkle with the Garlic Powder and White Pepper. Then drizzle small amount of your favourite Oil over. Shake it all about and cover to put in Microwave oven for about two minutes on high, or until they are cooked to your liking.

This is a quick and easy way to cook the Runner Beans and they taste really good. Remember do not add any water when you cook them this way.

***

  Poem: What is Time?

What is time? Time is to live. Time to die. Time to forgive.

Time to try. Time to laugh. Time to cry. Time to sleep.

Time to sigh. Time to eat. Time to sing. Time to pray.

Yes the time is now. To pray and praise God.

Any time is the right time, to Praise The Lord.

Time belongs to God. Time is Eternal

Time is forever. Time timeless. Time is Time past & present

Here and now. Time waits for no one

Time is all around us. Time quiet. Time you cannot hear

Time can heal. Time you cannot feel. Time you cannot see.

Time is like the wind. Time is ever present. Time has gone

Time is yet to be. Time is NOW.
