Long ago, Kim of Frog ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.
A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.
Nothing rude or vulgar though.
And we don't mind at all if overseas bloggers care to join us.
The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child and I occasionally join in as do a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look.
Starting today with my fridge:
and the cartoon I found on the side I never see anymore, enlarging it should enable you to read the words.
behind the fridge is 11 years worth of dust which I discovered when I had to pull the machine out to untangle the extension duster I was using to swipe under it.
look at that! clearly 11 years worth of swiping with the extension duster has only pushed most of the dust to the back wall.
a lot of it got dragged out when I pulled the fridge, I took the opportunity to vacuum dust out from all the nooks and crannies and wires once I got the caught duster freed. Moving into the garden:
these tall spindly stems are my growing "reindeer" potato, I decided they'd be better off in a wider pot
so here they are, transplanted and with broken stems, still surviving and hopefully growing potatoes soon.
my tomato seedlings are still alive, but not growing much, I don't remember what type they are, perhaps they won't get tall? I should thin them out, but the "critters" might do that for me.
I've lifted the mesembryanthemum up off the ground and will give it a "haircut" soon.
the white geranium is off the front porch for the summer, it just gets too hot there, this also needs trimming but I will wait for a cooler day.
this is one of the jade (Crassula) family, but with crinkled pale green leaves and I don't remember the name, it gets badly burnt on the porch each summer so here it is also in the garden. Some of the stems broke off as we moved it, they have been replanted into other pots.
the front porch looks neater now and I think I will leave the bigger pots in the garden.
here a hungry magpie helps himself to dried cat food
you will need to enlarge this and the next picture to see the rainbow prettiness of these baby shower cupcakes with tiny teddy faces on them.
even the cake itself was rainbowed!
Ana: peek-a-boo! she loves getting under things
Just checking, no monsters under this bed!
Both girls playing on the floor, do you know which is which? I don't.

And the twins are just über-charming!!! I'd guess it's Ana in white on that last photo. But my, they look alike.
The bubs are such bright, alert little darlings. I love seeing photos of them.
I sure would enjoy a couple of those cupcakes!
Have a happy, relaxed, safe week ahead, River...take care. Cuddles to the lovely Lady Lola. :)
I hope you cleaned the dust from the fridge motor too.
Maggie looks quite close to you. They are quite easy to tame.
The girls look like very happy and contented babies.
The girls are happy and content until they get hungry, you should hear them then! Their schedule is regular now though, so the bottles and food are usually ready for them in time.
Especially the "pretty much"! My T had to work with that horrible colleague for two days, and boy, he fears Monday again. But maybe he is thankful in having me, who perfectly understands....
Uh-oh. Our fridge is huge (we bought the kitchen like it was. I am afraid of what´s behind there! Reckon it´s at least 20 years old...)
Now... that explains why the young woman was so loud in the kitchen with the "heating"... We have no carpet, think there was a lot of dust in there, too.... Ahhhhh...
Your porch and plants look great! Good luck with the potatoes and tomatoes... oh, and the magpie!!! I love these birds (outside their "season") such sweet, intelligent guys.
Big Wow on your cupcakes! Even though I would keep them for decoration only ;-)
No, I cannot see a difference with the babies. I heard of parents who painted toenails in the first months to not mix them up!!!
The cupcakes were made by a professional baker I think, although people attending the baby shower also brought plates of food to share.
Painting toenails is a good idea for identical twins. Even just one dot of colour would be enough.
Coffee is on and stay safe
Here we found a kitchen cabinet, Ingo does not like it.
We needed to get a new oven as the pre-owner... can you believe that: They had one daughter, 14 years old when they moved out, one kid! The mother was not working and always made convenience food! What the heck did she do all day? The oven smelled that bad from these dishes (here they mostly have garlic in them) we had to throw it away!
Well, they were not the brightest candles on the top of the cake, as my Brother says...
The husband had installed strong, energy-(and money-)eating lights Ingo threw out the next day, LOL.
