Huge Black And Yellow Spider In The Garden

Huge black and yellow spider.

 Looked like this huge black and yellow spider was very upset when his web got ruined while I was watering my vegetable garden early this evening.  I didn't see him until I walked around to the other side to remove the dead leaves from the okras.  He was so big and freaking scary!

My husband said it's one of those garden spiders.  Some grow really big and some don't.  Boy, you will see different kinds of insects and arachnid in the yard especially when you are growing vegetables.

A Very Lovely Surprise From My Cousin

An orchid plant.

I was very surprised one day my cousin came over to give me this lovely orchid plant.  From our previous get-together we talked about getting an orchid.  We love how beautiful their flowers are and caring for them is easy.

It was a nice surprise for me.  I put the orchid on the entry way table by the front door.  And it is looking very pretty.  I truly appreciate my cousin for this special gift.

Smells like Christmas In Our House Right Now

From my shopping the other day, I bought two packs of air fresheners.  I saw on the CVS ad that the Airwick air freshener refills were on sale.  And with my extra 25% Off I received thru email, I got them almost free because the store gave me back some Extra Bucks - equivalent to or like a store credit.

The scent of the Airwick air  freshener is Apple Cinnamon, which reminds me of the Holiday season.  When my husband came home from work this evening, he smelled it and said "Sure smells good in here."  :)
