A Ulysses Butterfly on my doorsteps this morning??? It was Dead as bottom part of wings not formed; rather sad but beautiful, inside the frame is the shell of a local sea urchin found washed up on the beach.

My family has flown away for another 2 years!!!!!!!! when they left they left me a fare well gift, a food-saver,
- Zapping 12 swap applique blocks?????
well it may not sound to exciting butttttttt my DDL thinks out of the square & was thinking about zapping my crafts!!!!!!!!!!! I live in the Tropical rain forest & for 3 to 5months we have a wet season in the summer which has around 90% plus humidity day & night with temps around 3oplusC?????? I have too many swap blocks in Red-work & applique
Who could ask for more????
to count; as for 9 years I ran an office 7 days a week & by belonging to an online swap group it kept me sane. Trying to keep these lovely blocks free of mould through the wet is a full time job, now I think I have the answer!!!!!!!! I will keep you updated on this.
After 8 weeks I’m on my own again & just back from Coffee with my girlfriend, fish & chips beside the beach plus sewing

On arriving home I found the birds had visited my Strawberry plant???
There were lots of strawberries this morning??????
it was covered with strawberries when I left this morning!!!!! Sorry the photo is on it’s side but if I try turning it I will be here till next week??????? Herb bowls are ex chief cooking bowls hanging from a steel pipe tripod, my idea????? Stops the wild turkeys from digging them up as they all swing like crazy when they try & land on them!!!!!
Last but not least DS sent me a photo, they had just arrived in Dubai.
