Finding ' Treasures'

Good Evening, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

This morning and afternoon have gone by quickly; however, a lot of tidbit things were accomplished! We attended to our business, as well as 'tidying up' bittid loose ends, that have grown to fruition on the 'back burner'. Managed too, to rearrange our kitchen; and amazing what a bit of tid organization does in one's spirits! Let alone, house! LOL! Meanwhile, Alan added some 'green thumb' touches to our patio / garden; and now it is 'ready' for company! The tables have been washed; and with all the green and lush healthy and thriving plants, flowers, herbs, veggies, our garden is a cosy retreat. Within the next month or so, we will treat ourselves to a barbecue, 2 comfy lounge cots, 4 cushy chairs, and a heat lamp; which will be great for all year round use and enjoyment. We think Costco or Home Depot will have good selections, as well encouraging the best prices.

Whilst I was cleaning the kitchen, I came across some very black black bittidz pair of 'escargot holders'. Amazing how wonderful they look, now that they have been avidly polished to a sparkling glamour! They are of old silver; and they came with the house! (belonged to my parents). I was not sure what the 'tongs' were originally; and thought they were perhaps 'ice tongs' or a 'tea bag holder'; but no, 'escargot holders', suggested by Alan. I will happily go with that designated tweezer tidbitz description; and now all we have to do is have some escargot! LOL! Mmmmmmm. Sounds good! I LOVE Escargot; and it is always an appreciated treat, whenever I have them; which is rare.

Also yesterday, our tid Camelia Bush was replanted by the Strata landscapers to a better location; (beside our kitchen window) because the 2 large thriving rhododendrums in the front section, are blocking its light and thus crowding / curtailing its otherwise, healthy growth. The other Camelia is a 'tree', that is planted firmly in our back patio side area; and the blooms are still a beautiful pink blush. There is also a bit plant called 'Acuba?' which WAS 'disastrous' looking; and had been a part of my parents' garden. However, Alan repotted it, fertilized the much neglected plant; and now, it has also been transplanted to the same location as the Camelia; so it should now be happy in its new home.

Tidbit - Appreciate finding treasures! ie 'Other peoples' junk can be someone else's treasure'; or bittidical words to that effect. Just depends on the given situation at the time.

On Monday, we found an old Christmas artificial pine / bamboo tree in the garbage area, along with a cream coloured tidbitical 'frog'. The 'tree' looks so 'at home' on our patio, against the brick background; and the 'frog' fits right in! I guess the 'frog' typically belongs on the kitchen sink /counter; as it is designed to hold SOS pads etc; however for now, that will be our garden scrub holder 'frog'. We recently found; yes found a dark brown 'frog' (from my parents); so that now inhabits our sink area. That 'found' tree will look wonderful in our front hall at Christmas; and we just happen to have some 'funky' decorations that will make it 'shine!' Otherwise, it will reside outdoors.

The above photo image is of a 'frog'. Perhaps this looks familiar to you; and you may even have one of these, plunked on your kitchen sink? The 'frog' is actually very handy to hold bit dish scrubbers etc.

Bittid - Appreciate the discovery of 'antique items'; and then to further enjoy polishing them up to a brilliant restored elegance!

We were anticipating our court appearance tomorrow, re: the sibling saga; however, the Judge has had to postpone the date; so when I know a tid of a bit more, you will know more as well.

Good Night and God Bless.
