Autumnal Equinox

Faerwillow, of Serendipity, has a beautiful blog, and decided to have a swap, in honor of the Equinox.


My swap partner was Deb, and what a lovely package she sent me- a book of poetry, a cd of Celtic music (my favorite) and two packages of teas, cleverly held together with earrings!!! Her little card had a tiny hummingbird pin - she must have checked my blog - h'birds are another favorite- altho all of mine are well on their trek south by the time the equinox arrives. I still leave fresh food out, for the straggler or two passing thru on their migratory flight.

Thanks, Deb - for the "happy mail"!!!!

Anyway, I have to thank Faerwillow for organizing this!! You can visit her blog to read more about it- and she might have a link to the other participants. Drop in on Deb, and see what I sent her........................

Autumn also begins with a full moon, altho' the moon has been pretty bright, and almost full,  these past few evenings. I am ready for cooler days, how about you?

Now, I am off to balance an egg. This is supposed to be the only time of the year when a fresh egg will stand on end. If it works - I will post a pic!!!

One World One Heart Begins Again!

I almost missed it again this year!!! Starting tomorrow, and running thru Feb 15, Whimsical Bohemian is organizing the OWOH 2010 event.

I am really excited about participating this year, and very happy that she is willing to organize this again - it is ALOT of work, I am sure!!! Next week, there will be a link on Whimsical Bohemian to all the participating blogs, so you can take a tour in blogland, and meet lots of interesting new folks!



Here is a link to read all about it and find instructions on how to participate, and here is a brief excerpt from her blog:

"WHAT IS ONE WORLD ONE HEART?

I created this event in 2007. The original idea behind this giveaway event was to bring bloggers together from around the world who may never ordinarily meet. It closes the gap of the blog community and enables us to interact, discover new and wonderful people, and in the process possibly win a prize or many prizes along the way. 2007 had roughly 85-90 participants and many connections were made because of it......friendships that are still going strong.
We had a strong showing the first year for sure, and then in 2008 we had just about tripled that number. In 2009 there were 911 participants, to say I was amazed is an understatement. 28 countries were represented in the 2009 event as well.
This is more than wanting to win something.......that is only the means.......in the end it's about finding kindred spirits."

There is also a link on my sidebar.

Just leave a comment here, AND on any of the sites you visit, to enter each of the sites' giveaways. A comment here, enters you in my drawing, comments on other OWOH blogs enters you in their individual giveaways.You can visit as many as you like to enter. And, becoming a follower is ALWAYS appreciated, but not required to enter!

Since I participate in Tea on Tuesday, I thought my prize should be tea related. It will be this vintage Bavarian china teacup and saucer, with linen napkin, and bl&w napkin ring.There is a cute little Celestial Seasonings magnet too. Included will be some teas, maybe a tea wallet,or a pincushion-whatever else strikes my fancy to add to the pile!!!
