Coach and Vera Bradley......doesn't get any better! We have been to Hamanda Japanese Steak House in Tinley Park, IL.....it's very good. <br /><br />I was checking out your spice cabinet......love it! That is really great!!<br /><br />You mentioned you were going to plant blueberry bushes. A few years ago I planted three blackberry bushes on one side of the shed and three blueberry bushes on the other side. We did get berries from both and they were good. Then two years ago I was looking forward to some really good blueberries and guess what.....they turned to red raspberries!!!! I went to the nursery and they told me because I had blackberry bushes on the otherside it has been know to happen. They changed......no more blueberries. Last year I had the best crop of blackberries and red raspberries. Strange but true!<br /><br />Can't wait to hear what kind of bird you have nesting in your tree, owl, hawk, eagle?<br /><br />Have a nice weekend:)The Fajdich Timeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16374058806872553579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-54069432264556233492011-04-12T08:56:00.052-05:002011-04-12T08:56:00.052-05:00I hope that your daughter Abigail had a wonderful ...I hope that your daughter Abigail had a wonderful time. My daughter Ashley's Birthday is this month also. I love Japanese food, especially when you can see them cook it in front of you.<br /><br />We have two hawks that fly overhead. Sometimes I have been worried about my little dog Cocoa. They swoop down and try to scare her. I love the watch them soaring around in the sky though. I did hear one of them swoop down one day and take a little bunny.<br /><br />I often wonder about the large crowns and how they chase the hawks. They seem so small in comparison.<br /><br />Have a wonderful day Jane.<br /><br />KarenAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01487481759201796912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-47370003876404581712011-04-12T06:38:16.105-05:002011-04-12T06:38:16.105-05:00Hi Jane!

I don't own one but you asked...LOL! Looks like a great dinner! Isn't it fun to watch them twirling around and chopping away?! We have a lot of hawks being so close to the mountains. I've seen them carry off rabbits, prarie dogs, etc. I would be watchful that's for sure. Wish I knew of a way to detour them. Maybe, google it. <br />Hope you have a great week!

Happily they didn't snack on any of them. That pot you saw on my blog is called a chamber pot aka potty. lol I have a few of them. They are just so pretty and can be used to hold so many things.

I have given both Vera Bradley and Coach as gifts, but just bought my own first Vera Bradley item...a cover for my Kindle. As for Coach, I got the purse back that I bought my mom a few years ago. She "saved" it, so it has hardly been used, but she liked smaller purses than I do, so I haven't carried it.<br /><br />As for travel (when I get to do it) I go for comfort these days. We end up doing so much walking everywhere we go, that I dress around my Privo shoes...which are just slightly cuter than Nikes! They are my favorite shoes of all time and if my feet and legs hold up...I'm happy.

When Molly was a puppy I used to go out with her because she was such a little bundle ~ perfect pickings for an eagle ~ which we have because we are so close to the river. As for vacation if we are sightseeing and doing a lot of walking I am a sneakers girl ~ for anything else I am in sandals or flip flops. This vacation will be a bit of both!

Of course, I say that after complaining to my son in February that he could stop having birthdays any time now. I swear I feel the years adding up more on my kids birthdays than on my own!!!!<br /><br />As for a purse, I'm not fussy, but I love them cute and SMALL! Just asks Mrs. Magpie, she always comments on my purses when we're out and about. <br /><br />Btw, I looked back and drooled over your spice cabinet! That is SO cool, I'd love to have something like that, where I don't have to dig through looking for the particular spice or herb I need at the time. The most used ones usually just live on my counter. Shhh, don't tell anyone!<br /><br />Can't wait to hear about your upcoming trip! I want you to tell me all the right places to see if I ever get there! Right now I'm just hoping to get to Georgia to visit family.<br /><br />HugsShellbellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14836629045327379085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-24416694871814703422011-04-11T15:53:31.178-05:002011-04-11T15:53:31.178-05:00Hi Jane!

...Do you know about the eagle cam in Decorah Iowa? <br />http://www.ustream.tv/decoraheagles<br /><br />I find these birds interesting from afar but think I would be a little spooked to have them in my neighborhood. With the "wilds" diminishing, we have had hawks around here in recent years as well as coyotes. This is the suburbs! I'm only supposed to worry about my neighbors putting their trash out for pick up too early!

I have to choose comfort over style when I travel, since four years ago I broke my ankle and have a plate and 17 screws that have made any kind of heel impossible for me to wear.Until I lose a lot of weight sun dresses won't work for me either, but I love them just the same.
