Your security guard, with his stern expression, I'm certain, does a great job of keeping a watchful eye on the juicy jewels! Enjoy!

She may be raising her Young at the same time that the cherries are ripening.

We have a few plastic owls in our trees but they just don't fool our little robins.<br />I have been enjoying your flower photos. Nothing growing here. Still too cold.

The labels on your bottles are beautiful and so is your presentation.<br />When did you say is the party???<br />Best wishes for a lovely Sunday, SieglindeDahling1https://www.blogger.com/profile/01706796518280004968noreply@blogger.com
