First- I've been having trouble leaving comments on some blogs. I can add the comment and it looks like it was done but on blogs that have comment approval, some of my comments don't go through and I get a long jibberish email saying this
Delivery Status Notification (Failure)
Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:
and it goes on and one but that is the top of the emails.
It is very frustrating and I have been in contact with some of the bloggers.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to get my comments to go through or how to fix this?
I have certainly been annoyed by spam commenters.
My blog comment settings seem to be working pretty good on filtering out spam right now- I don't have the word verification, commenters have to be registered users and I only require approval on comments on posts more than 7 days old.
now on to more pleasant topics......
we get most of our eggs from some country friends that home-grow them. We haven't had any for a few months but they have new hens now. The eggs are small but aren't the colors pretty? there are 4 shades of white, beige and brown. The blue eggs are the bluest chicken eggs I've ever seen.
3 of the grands were here at the same time and they liked digging in the new dirt pit.
When I helped my parents downsize, I got 2 very nice bundt cake pans. I used this rose shaped one to bake a yellow cake
I frosted it with the chocolate frosting left from last week's acorn project. The frosting had been in a covered bowl in the fridge and was fine.
Waste not, want not!
Costume fun-
This is my daughter in law Sheena at her job on Friday. She is as pretty and as sweet as an angel too
below- the 2 little pirates are granddaughter Andie and her cousin Lily. I think the Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy passing out candy are so funny~ the man is really named Andy but I am amazed he is happily dressed as a big rag doll.
here are 2 of my grands in costume looking forward to candy.
The burlap canvas is hung in front of a framed mirror.
