Laughter is…

 “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine” says the iron trivet in my kitchen.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laughter says “Children are known to laugh a great deal more than adults: an average baby laughs around 300 times a day compared to an average adult, who laughs around 20 times a day; however this can depend on a person’s personality.” 20 times a day- really – who are these people?  Dogs laugh, chimps laugh and even rats laugh! When something strikes me really funny I appreciate it tremendously.  What makes you laugh? Jokes below:

New house surprises

kitchen window January

kitchen window in July

The butterfly bush covers the whole window

butterfly bush flowers and yellow lillies

Part of the fun of a new home is to see what comes up and blooms as the seasons change. This butterfly bush just grew and grew until it was above the window..now it pushing at the roof overhang. It is very popular with the bees, butterflies and even a few hummingbirds. Nature keeps me amused.
