Happy Happy Friday to you!  We had a delightful evening last night with five of our grands; they brought dinner(so mom and dad could go out), we went on a nice walk, ate watermelon outside on the sidewalk and had a great time together.  Such fun!!!! 

This morning I went out searching for treasures and bargains with my friend and we didn't find much; I got a shirt for .25 cents, a small crystal clock for our master bathroom-so I can actually see what time it is if I'm going somewhere, a Christmas decoration and a child's book.  Then on the way home we spotted a Farmer's Market at a small independent grocery store so stopped.  They had fresh corn, cantalop, watermelons, peaches, potatos etc...all locally grown.  I ended up getting my girl, Kim, a case of peaches because they were such a good price and now that she knows how to can them and they are so yummy, she'll get another twelve quarts done for their pantry.   The photo above is something I had never seen before and I'm hoping that it wasn't just a scam.  The Farmer's Market called this a Hedge Ball and said that it isn't edible or poisonous but it naturally repels spiders and other insects.  The directions were to put it in a bowl on your window sill or any area where you have issues with spiders; when all the green is gone you simply throw it out.  I loved the look of this and thought it was work a try, if for no other reason than it is interesting.
I can almost hear some of you laughing at what a gulible gal I am. 
This weekend should be a nice relaxed one; we are going out to lunch with some friends but other than that, I'm thinking we are pretty wide open.
Have a wonderful weekend dear friends.  Noreen
