Question Time

      Every weekend I will have a blog post where I ask and answer questions.  It is a good way for readers to get  to know more about me and also helps me to get feedback on a number of questions. What have you been totally fascinated with recently? Looking at 3D Images! My friend Cecile introduced me to them and I thought I would never be able to see the images.  Well, I was determined to figure it out! After advice from my friend and some research I am finally enjoying looking at many of these images.  Cecile  made this one  for me. Can you see the image?


       As usual I am participating in Friendship Friday hosted by Create With Joy where the theme this week is Hobbies. What hobbies do you like participating in during your spare time? Reading, listening to the radio, watching music shows and a variety of sports on television, photography and corresponding with pen-pals from around the world. These days I mainly exchange emails with my pals.  What hobbies have you always wanted to learn?  I would like to resume the piano lessons that I stopped a very long time ago and probably learn how to play lawn tennis. Have you ever tried a hobby that wasn't your cup of tea? No, I can't think of any.

A Great Find - Creative Monday Blog Hop

   Recently I decided to wear a brown dress  with a new pair of brown shoes and was thinking what accessories to wear with them.  I started searching and found a gift that my twin received but never got the chance to use.  All sorts of ideas came to mind.  I decided that it could be worn as a bracelet or hair accessory. I think I will be wearing it mainly as a hair accessory.

Question Time

    Every weekend I will have  a blog post where I ask and answer questions. It is  a good way for readers to get to know more about me and also helps me to get feedback on a number of questions.  Are you a patriotic person who knows a lot about your country's history and geography? I  am patriotic and have some Jamaican souvenirs.   Jamaica celebrated its 51st anniversary of Independence last Tuesday, August 6.  I live in St. Mary, a parish situated in the North Eastern section of the  island.  Our national symbols are as follows :- national fruit - ackee, national flower - lignum vitae, national bird -The Jamaican Streamer Tail Hummingbird and national tree - Blue Mahoe.

   As usual I am participating in Friendship Friday hosted by Create With Joy where the theme this week is Birthdays. What's your favourite way to celebrate your birthday?  Birthdays are rather quiet for me since my twin sister's death. We used to go places, have a special lunch and of course at home there would be cake and ice-cream.  Has anyone every planned a surprise party for you?  I have never had a surprise birthday party. We would go somewhere and not have parties.  What is your favourite cake and ice-cream combination? Any cake with icing and Grapenut ice-cream. Share your favourite birthday memory?  My favourite birthday memory was when my twin and I celebrated our 21st birthday in the beautiful parish of Portland,Jamaica. We had a nice meal at the Trident Hotel and it was great to see the birds roaming around. Here are pictures of that special birthday.
