We had a great time on our dinner boat cruise

I took this photo while on our dinner boat cruise on Saturday evening. We were on a boat cruising around on Lake Ontario just outside of Toronto. I went up on deck about a half hour before sunset and stayed there until the sun was almost down snapping approximately 200 photos of the lovely scenery as the boat slowly moved across the lake.

What a beautiful evening we had. I’d highly recommend the Toronto Dinner boat cruises if your visiting the city or even if you live in the area and want to impress your date. The dinner was served as a buffet and it was delicious.

Oh, we had a couple sitting at the table beside us who were celebrating their five year wedding anniversary. They were dressed in the same clothes they wore to their wedding. She wore a simple white wedding gown and he wore a tuxedo. Everyone thought that they’d just been married, but it was their anniversary. They must be a very romantic couple.

I believe that this flower is called Scabiosa. I grew these flowers from seed about four or five years ago in my front garden beds and ever since then they come up on their own all over the place. Lets just say they are hardy and they reseed themselves quite well.

This one happens to be growing in one of my planters. I didn’t plant it, it just came up on it’s own. I’ve come to think of them as pretty weeds.

Sorry about the very late Green Thumb Sunday post. We had our big family reunion from Friday until Tuesday and I’m just now getting back to blogging. I’m also extremely tired!

Gardeners, Plant and Nature lovers can join in every Sunday, visit As the Garden Grows for more information.

Who works at home?

by

It’s strange. When I think back to just a few years ago I barely knew anyone who worked from home. I’m sure there were lots of people working out of home offices or running small businesses from their home. I think there always has been … but now that I work at home myself I think that the amount of people that I know who work 100% from their home has increased substantially.

Sure, I also know a lot of people that work from home on a part time basis. I suppose I’ve always been in that category. Having been a jeweller in the past you can’t get away from the business. I still get rings and other jewelry made for friends and family. I’ve also done part time work from home doing web graphics and creating web sites for others. Now of course I have several websites and I earn money through various forms of advertising, writing and even by selling my photography.

There’s lots of ways to make money from home though isn’t there. I know some people that make beaded jewelry at home, and others that sell it online or in person. Actually I know quite a few people who have online stores too.

If you work at home what kind of business or work do you do?

What should I do in Vegas?

by

I might be going to Las Vegas in November.

I was just talking about it on my main blog Tricia’s Musings. I may or may not going depending upon my health as I’ve been awfully sick lately.

It’s a blogging convention that I’ll be going to if I go. I’d still like to know the full itinerary, especially since I was asked to be a speaker. Actually it’d be nice if they’d pay for my hotel room or something. Nothings been offered so far.

Anyway. For those who’ve been to Las Vegas what should I do while I’m there. Well provided I have any free time I mean. I keep hearing about the Tropicana Las Vegas. Do they have Vegas shows there?

What else should I see or do while in Vegas? Don’t say gamble as we aren’t big on gambling.
