Halloa Fans,

As you can see,
Little Lion is in a book discussion
with his playmates.

So today I have the honour to
entertain you first.

Enjoy!

A sparkling quote;
one of my favorites. :)

The other day I was reminiscing about
children’s books, fairy tales and
“the good old times”
when everything was a lot cheaper.

It brought me back to a time, when the
grocery list included, a fairy tale
and/or a “Little Golden Book.”

Little puppy Poky stands out in many
a child and a grown-up’s mind.

There are so many more!

To my shame, I have to admit I
was not acquainted with

“The Golden Book Gown.”

To my delight I spotted this “Golden Oldie” the other day.

Shortly thereafter I checked
what one can do with “Magic Pens.”
A fine idea for Easter Eggs!

By serendipity, I landed at

and
a perfect “Holiday Celebrations” site.

Meet Angie and her beloved Family!
Enjoy this holiday blog year round.

I can’t wait till I see the garden faeries
with their magic paintbrushes bring
the spring gardens back to life.

Aha, here comes Little Lion to
pass on more book fun for the younger crowd.

See you next Saturday!
Enjoy my Rhyme Time with the little ones.

Hullo Everyone!

I hope you liked having time off school
and read a good book or two.
As you know April is book month and
April is creeping up on you!

I like pirate and monster stories.
Do you?

Yesterday I spotted with my pirate eye,
a dog’s diary.

 It’s a nice birthday present
or a Christmas gift for anyone who
likes dogs, adventures, Christmas, crafts,
recipes and Charles Dickens pooch
“Tiny Tim.”
The review says:

“Tiny Tim tells a tale
as lively as a holiday gig.”

Grin-Grin…
Like this cocky feline,

dogs_not_allowed

who thinks this sign
will keep a canine out of the way!”

Tiny Tim is going to be on my
“Mistress Mommy’s Christmas List!”

We both will love Tiny Tim’s story.

We got a lot of snow earlier this week.
Green snow ideas popped into my mind.

My appointment with the groomer was
delayed a couple of days
because of the heavy snowfall.
I did not mind!
“Mistress Mommy” is not allowed to stay
with me and that makes me nervous.
I know she waits for me in the store
but I can’t spy on her.
Anyhow, I am good now for a few months.

Mommy did buy me a new toy and I liked it.
But I was not letting her know
how much I liked the new toy, until much later,
when we were back in the house
and “Mommy” wanted to play with it.
I grabbed it quickly and ran
around in circles.
Then I took a nap because I was exhausted.

Later I scared Mommy” and the Lad with
my green monster outfit,
I looked like the “monster in green”
on this photo from “Mommy’s” album.

Ha-Ha-Ha…
It was only Mommy’s green scarf!
I just wanted to celebrate St. Paddy’s
but I scared everyone, that was hilarious!

It’s quiet as a mouse at the LOOK-OUT.
Not much to fuss about.

Next time I will show you a picture
of my new playmate.

Have a fun weekend.
See you next Saturday!

Heartfelt thanks to everyone for the animations,
links and the artists and video makers.

All other photos by the
“Blog Muse”
and me,  the snapping photographer.
I forgot to snap one this week,
so have a look at this picture

Thanks Mame! Hope you’re doing well! :)

Keep in touch and enjoy
the little leprechaun.

Bye-Bye!
