Just scrumptious or just wonderful or just apricot is understandable— but Just Joey? Nevertheless, the big brandy-colored buds, the large ruffled apricot flowers steeped with fruity fragrance, and the huge glossy green leaves have intoxicated many a rose lover. An immigrant from England, the bushy vigorous plant takes well to our shores.

 

Have a good one

Thanks for visiting!

Major Scrumptious "Scrummy" Sky: (bursts onto the bridge of the Frigus Iustitia, literally sparkling) I wish you would try the Happy Springs with me, Pips. Look at me! I'm radiant!

 

Captain Debris "Pips" Jetsam: Scrummy, that much radiance belongs out in the corona, not on this bridge. (smiling at her Aquarian friend)

 

MSS: (preens, causing dazzling sparkles of light to bounce around the bridge) You're just allergic to happiness.

 

CDJ: (brushing sparkles away from her control console) No, I'm just wary of artificial happiness. If you and I both get happy, this ship would-

 

COL: (his hol appears in the forward part of the bridge) Stonehenge Intergalactic Spacefort communications to Frigus Iustitia.

 

MSS: Oo! (touches a glowing button on a nearby console) Frigus Iustitia to Stonehenge. Lovely to see you, Loqui. Tell me I'm beautiful, you adorable Terran.

 

CDJ: (sighs) Sorry, Loqui, she's been at the spa. Go ahead.

 

PT: Pips, Scrummy, I need you back at Stonehenge right now. This is from top brass at IRC.

 

MSS: Loqui, why do you sound like Plush?

 

PT: (stepping closer to COL so that she's captured by the hol) I'm here, too.

 

MSS: Good, because I've been meaning to ask, why do you Terrans still use the term, "top brass?" None of you have used brass for anything for over two hundred years-

 

CDJ: Scrummy ... (she smiles apologetically at PT's hol) Happy Springs.

 

PT: I understand, but nobody's going to be happy if the two of you aren't back here before Director Steadfast docks.

 

MSS: The deceptively delicious Director?

 

PT: Pips?

 

CDJ: I'll have her sobered up before we dock.

 

COL: (smiling) Too bad.

 

CDJ: (as she preps the ship for departure, recalling crew) Why is the Director coming to Stonehenge, Plush? That sounds serious.

 

PT: He suspects we have a spy somewhere in IRC. A spy working for an unidentified, hostile alien presence that just kidnapped a group of scientists from Hypatia, who are working on the Plicare experiment.

 

MSS: (seems to sober all on her own) Plicare?

 

CDJ: We'll be under way in four minutes, Plush. Frigus Iustitia ending hol.

The Small long-legged fly, Condylostylus longicornis, is often found near swamps and streams. Adults and the larvae of many species are predaceous on smaller insects and some larvae feed on pestiferous bark beetles. This adult is carrying two small insects in its mouth! :)

Today I found English Crumpets in our local healthy grocery store. A scrummy taste of home for me. I should have bought at least two packs as the pack of six was I bought was soon gone!

Toasted and traditionally served with butter but lashings of olive oil spread for me, every bit as good.

“A Trullo (plural: Trulli) is a very unique style of farm house, with a very interesting history. Found only in the region of Puglia, these conical houses have long been used for housing, storage and shelter by the local people. The name actually derives from the Greek word troulos, which means dome or cupola.”

Whilst staying with friends in Martina Franca, I spotted many of these deserted dwellings, all of them for sale. The suggested price for a ‘project’ was around 50,000 euros and those fully renovated were fetching substantially more.

This egret was certainly interested in the shrimp bait of this fisherman at the beach just after sunrise! When the fisherman wasn't looking, the egret peeked into the fisherman's bag, then found some pieces of shrimp nearby and snatched it up with his beak. The fisherman seemed oblivious to the bird, as if he didn't even notice him there. It is common for birds to stop by around the fisherman around sunrise in search for breakfast, and they practically "blend in" with the setting.

Scientists, and an IRC Agent, kidnapped by a diabolical hand that reached out of the skies of Hypatia, and the possibility of a spy in the IRC working for a hostile alien force summons Captain Debris Jetsam and

Major Scrumptious Sky to the Stonehenge Intergalactic Spacefort from their shore leave in the Carousel Corona.

 

CDJ: (seated at a conference table with Scrummy & Plush) Plush, I haven't been able to get anything out of Scrummy about this Plicare experiment, but I can tell she knows something. Can you explain it to me?

 

PT: Sorry, Pips, it's above your security clearance.

 

CDJ: But not Scrummy's? How is that possible?

 

PT: You know Aquarians, Pips. They don't keep secrets from each other, and there are Aquarians working on the experiment.

 

MSS: What one knows, all know, in the "fluid mind." (just then, the door slides open and Director Steadfast enters)

 

CDJ: (to MSS) He just saved you from being tickled into spilling some of that fluid mind information. (grins as MSS' eyebrows shoot up in alarm) Good to see you, Director.

 

DS: You too, Debris, Scrumptious, Plush.

 

MSS: Very good to see you, Director. (fairly purrs) Love the new look.

 

DS: (sits near Plush, clearing his throat) Plush, were they briefed about the kidnapping?

 

PT: Yes, sir.

 

DS: First, note in the Stonehenge log that I am upgrading Captain Jetsam's security clearance to Factor Six-Nine.

 

CDJ: Nice. (gets a glance from DS) I mean, nice, sir.

 

PT: Logged.

 

DS: A team of scientists were sent to Hypatia to work on increasing the capacity of the vermisforamen currently in use.

 

PT: Being able to vee more than 7 tons at a time would be a boon to the shipping industry.

 

CDJ: And planetary defense.

 

DS: An accidental discovery, code named, Plicare, would surpass the perfection of the tachyon field.

 

(CDJ and PT stare at each other, thunderstruck by this statement.)

 

MSS: (smiles at DS) Our people had beards, in our distant past. Not anymore. It gives you such a -- primal aspect. I like it.

 

CDJ: (saving DS from MSS' flirtations) How would increasing the vee's capacity do that?

 

DS: Plicare wouldn't increase the vee's capacity, it would increase travel velocity.

 

MSS: Actually, it would decrease velocity, but increase distance and lower time.

 

PT/CDJ: What?

 

DS: Scrumptious is right. Plicare isn't a speed, it's about using wormholes to fold space. If the Plicare experiment succeeds, travel between planets could take as little time as it takes to step across a line drawn in the sand.

 

CDJ: Plush, I'm going to ask you to pick up the pieces of my mind, that were just blown all over the spacefort.

 

PT: Right there, with you.

 

DS: Naturally, we scattered the scientists, and had each working on specific aspects of the experiment. Their locations have been under strict secrecy and security. This was the first time they'd been brought together, on Hypatia, to talk about assembling a prototype.

 

PT: How many people knew where they were meeting, and why?

 

DS: You're looking at him.

 

PT: That's not good.

 

CDJ: Well, you, and every Aquarian. No offense, Scrummy.

 

MSS: None taken, since we didn't know.

 

DS: She's right. We didn't tell any of the scientists where they were going, just that they were being relocated to more secure locations.

 

CDJ: But they found out eventually. When did they realize where they were, and why?

 

DS: The definitely knew once they reached landfall on Hypatia, but it's possible they knew when they were in orbit. Either way, it was less than a day before their abduction.

 

PT: I hate to say it, but everyone must be looking at you, sir. (to DS)

 

DS: Of course, they are. So would I, if the roles were reversed.

 

CDJ: How many Aquarians were kidnapped?

 

DS: Only one. Once the hand grabbed him, the others instantly knew the danger, and concealed themselves.

 

MSS: (when CDJ eyes her) They had no defenses. Hiding made the most sense. They pulled others into hiding, as well.

 

CDJ: So, why don't you communicate with the Aquarian scientist? Ask him where they are?

 

MSS: Turgis Infigo is sleeping. He has slept since the hand lifted him from Hypatia.

 

DS: We don't know if that's because the kidnappers know about the "fluid mind" or if all of their victims are sleeping.

 

PT: Guarding sleeping prisoners is certainly easier than guarding conscious ones.

 

CDJ: What are our orders?

 

DS: Get to Hypatia. Talk to the scientists, Agent Rhoda, anybody you can think of. Search for a connection to the scientists' arrival and abduction. Whatever you find, do NOT report to me, or anyone else.

 

PT: Why?

 

DS: We probably have a spy in our midst, and I know my name is at the top of a very short list. You'll have to work on your own, and tell no one about Plicare.

 

CDJ: Except the scientist?

 

DS: Not even the scientists. I want them to think you're just looking into the abduction, that you have no idea what the special significance of these particular scientists is. (looks at MSS) Obviously, the Aquarians will know, we'll need them to pass along any information they come up with, to you, Scrumptious.

 

MSS: Yes, sir.

A trullo is a traditional Apulian dry stone dwelling with a conical roof. Their style of construction is specific to the Itria Valley in the Murge area of the Italian region of Apulia. Trulli were generally constructed as temporary field shelters and storehouses or as permanent dwellings by small proprietors or agricultural labourers. I stumbled across this abandoned trullo in a neighbouring field, the ultimate DIY investment project I should imagine!

How can I just let you walk away

 

Just let you leave without a trace

 

When I am standing taking every breath with you

 

You are the only one who really knew me at all

 

How can you just walk away from me

 

When all I can do is watching you leave

 

Cause we share the laughter and the pain ,

 

And even also the tears

 

So take a look at me now

 

Cause it is just an empty space ,

 

And there is nothing left here to remind me

 

Just the memory of your face

 

And your coming back to me is against all odds.

 

And that is what I got to face

 

Yeah . . yeah . .

 

I wish I would just make you turn around to see

 

me cry

 

There is so much I need to say to you

 

But to wait for you is all I can do

 

So take a look at me now

 

Cause I am still standing here ,

 

And your coming back to me is against all odds

 

It is the chance that I got to take

 

So take a look at me now

 

Now . .

Yesterday was a Bank Holiday here in England, so a lovely three day weekend with my family. As me and hubby were busy gardening I thought we needed some extra strength to get us through the hard work.. so I made this... and consequently had to go for a 4 mile run this morning... enough said ha ha... Happy Tuesday... KissThePixel2019

  

These scrumptious biscuits were made by my friend Andrea who is a wonderful cook and likes to surprise people with her culinary delights.

Ah, Fall is here! The sun is shining and the weather is that perfect, crisp cool, just right for Joe Cool. An exceptionally happy time of year.

 

At the intersection of Happy and Cool, there is a fantastic alleyway lined from start to finish with vendor booths of a dazzling variety. Snoopy can smell the scrumptious medley of dishes being grilled, baked and fried. His eyes are already darting from selections of colorful tees to fascinating toys to innovative fashion accessories.

 

Should he start with a caramel apple? Of course! It is fall, after all. Might Joe Cool find find a frosty root beer in a glass bottle? It's really the only way to drink root beer. Will he look at the latest minifigs from the hit manga, 'Beagle Kingdom'? Absolutely! He is a true fan. Perhaps a new pair of hip shades. And, to scratch a certain collector's itch, a new ballcap. Preferably one with an airplane theme. And... quite important... some hot, drippy, pepperoni by the slice!

 

Fall is here. It's happy times!
