I have changed the photo on this post,as it was not one of my own and someone told me it was not attributed . I received it in an email from somone sharing and I assumed it was theirs. So much for making assumptions. Pretty as it was, I have changed it to a photo of my own since I have no idea who took the other photo.
Thanks for head's up anonymous!

 It was like springtime for a few days with temperatures up in the 60s. Today we are springing a lot less as the temps have gone down to the 40s.
It would be nice to have early spring except for the weather's penchant of throwing a curve ball and freezing up every now and again which is not good for the plants.

 Rant of the Day:  I am usually behind the times but I recently watched Shrek. Yup, very behind the times. I didn't care for it at all because of the double entendres and jokes that were iffy in places and in a child's movie too. It's as though Hollywood cannot contain itself even for the sake of children.  The jokes in these movies and on television lately are mostly childish potty humor too. I don't see the need for it. I wish they would grow up and produce better things rather than pander to the lowest common denominator.  /rant

  1. Hi Annie,
    That press link is really cute. I have never seen Shrek not my kind of movie. As a kid I was never into cartoons or kids movies either. I think all movies all like that nowadays really. Times have changed I guess since we were young and married people had to sleep in twins on TV. Have a great weekend. Hugs, Dru

  2. Not really defending Shrek but I think the intent is that it gives the adults something to chuckle about yet goes over the heads of the kids. Have you seen the Toy Story movies? Those are so great! Another really good one was Up. Hope it doesn't get too cold. Have a great weekend! (((Hugz)))

  5. Hubby and I loved Shrek :) and so did all our adult friends. I think it's more popular among adults than kids. Hope you will have a cozy week :)
