What's blooming today?
Wordless Wednesday
Doesn’t it look like this poor lady is being crushed by her gigantic cat? Help! Help!
If she’s posing with the cat for the photo that’s a pretty strange way to pose isn’t it?
Any guesses as to how much that cat weighs? I’m guessing a good 50 or 60 pounds. It just looks huge. It’s bigger than most small dogs and getting into medium dog size. Isn’t it?
Hope you are having a great Wednesday.

This is a photo of Chive buds and new Chive flowers that I took about two weeks ago. The chive flowers are actually beginning to wain now, but there’s still a few left.
I love growing Chives. They are one of the first plants to make an appearance each spring, often showing their green stems by the end of March. It’s not uncommon for us to be able to pick chives and use them in our cooking – salads, marinades, on top of foods – from mid April right through until the first snow fall in November or early December.
The flowers are just a lovely bonus! I love the buds before the flowers develop and bloom – they look a bit like garlic sections or tiny onion bulbs. Then the beautiful full petaled blossoms open and often stay around for two or three weeks.
Do you grow chives or other plants from the allium family? Edible or ornamental?
Check out the beautiful Hosta photo that I’ve got on Tricia’s Musings!

Do you play paintball outdoors? Perhaps you’re a hunter or a member of the military? You’ve got to take a look at the ghillie suits offered by cheapest-ghillie-suits.com.
They sell everything from Special Ops Ghillie Suits for Hunters, Military, and Paintball. You can purchase full body suits, ponchos and accessories, as well as snipping and coverall suits.
I’d love to have one of these the next time I go and play paintball! It’d be totally cool. These ghillie suits are the perfect camouflage. No one would know I was there until they were right beside me! I’d finally have a chance of winning!
These Ghillie suits would also be perfect for hunters. My brother in law used to go duck hunting all the time and I’m sure he’d prefer a Ghillie suit to hiding behind a screen.
Visit the site to see the selection. The prices seem quite reasonable to me.
