Weekly Photo Challenge – Green
Kermit lamented the difficulties of "being green". God knows he had enough on his plate trying to deal with Miss Piggy without the added pressure of green-phobia. The nasty remarks by people who couldn't see past his top-to-toe greenness to discover the kind, loving frog inside. I have a lot of empathy for the little guy, I know the pressure of … [Read more...]

On the day both Susie O'Neill, founder of the Kids Foundation, and … [Read more...]
Weekly Photo Challenge – Close
I'm not sure if I'm still allowed to play in the weekly photo challenge as I've moved my blog to a self-hosted site (although still with some connection to wordpress.com via the Jetpack plug in). But for this week at least I'm throwing in my brother's shot of a couple of friendly owls. Just a note for anyone who was following my blog via a … [Read more...]
