{Word Verification is Time WASTE!}

Blogger has changed for the worse its Comments Word Verification with now a two word/symbol check. It is illegible and you are forced to try it twice or trice before you FINALLY can place your comment. As Theresa from The Run *A* Round Ranch Report put it: "My eyes don't decode spy messages!"  SORRY but none of us has that luxury of time. So once more I want to ask you to follow my earlier TIP on how to handle your Comments Setting. Will show you below. 

Yeah, try again. What an Invasion into my precious time...
Can you make out the other word's beginning?

How can I possibly make THOSE characters?
I'm not a robot and neither an idiot for doing this kind of games!

• By the way, I now have the setting for comments on Registered Users and that avoids almost all spam!

• Show word verification: No
• Comment Moderation: For posts older than 3 days to be safe.

Theresa's post about WORD VERIFICATION WOES! is excellent and very clear; see below.

{My 14th Blog Award}

From Nani in Macedonia I received my 14th blog award, click Kajnani-nani blog. THANKS Nani and I will try to work it out but I will not list 15 for passing it on as that is way too many... Nani had her birthday on February 15, so you might want to congratulate her on that. Belated yes, but still pretty close.

I am also expected to reveal 7 things about myself...

♥♥

1) Just like Nani, I am a WATERMAN.

2) Am very HAPPY that my Mom reached the age of 88 on February 12! She is a WATERMAN too.

Despite her having almost 4 years of kidney dialysis, from March 18, 2008 on, she has reached this blessed age.

3) LOVE the warmer weather and can't wait for spring to really start; not just 'teasing' and back to cold again.

4) Felt happy with our new Italian Coffee and Wine Bar 'Via Col Vento' (Gone With the Wind).

Dear friends Heinz & Maria from Ristorante da Maria run it.

I got a special treat on Monday from a sweet 93 year old role-model friend, who invited both of us for lunch at 'Via Col Vento' for my birthday on February 6.

This made us feel like being back in Italy, in the Veneto area...

5) LOVE the State where we live! For an idea of how Central Georgia looks like, see: Georgia Traveler.

6) Am so pleased with the delicious Chocolate Recipe for diabetes type 2, see my previous post: {Our Liz & Telepathy + AMAZING Chocolate Recipe!}.

Had another yummy chocolate heart today after coming home from Atlanta...

6) Proud of my husband Pieter who built a sturdy 3rd bridge across the creek. High enough for high water levels, IF it will rain a lot like previous years.

7) Bought several super healthy rose bushes at Costco today because we lost almost all of ours last year due to the heat and drought. Look forward to some real home grown roses for filling a vase. 

♥♥

And now... passing it on to several lovely blogs. That is always the hard part as there are so many deserving recipients!

1) Princesa Nadie A most romantic blog with flowers and porcelain cups & saucers etc.

2) Anna from The Doll House A highly talented lady with great styling!

3) Valentina from Les Cotrions Another highly talented lady with a lovely blog full of inspiration.

4) Marian from Schunsland Yet another highly talented lady!

♥♥

Please do pay them a visit and wishing you all a lovely day; anticipating SPRING...

{We went to TOPS IN BLUE - 'Rhythm Nation'}

Wow, we did end Saint Valentine's Day in a very special way. A while ago our local Chamber of Commerce did mail an invitation to all its members for joining TOPS IN BLUE 'Rhythm Nation', the Air Force's Premier Entertainment Showcase. Free to the public in the next town of Warner Robins, at the Civic Center. That's also where the Air Force Base and an Air Force Museum is located. We have taken many a visitor from Europe and Asia over there. 

Has any of you ever seen this spectacular show from TIB? The performers sing and dance all together for one year and that 's it. They have performed this year in 20 countries and 40 states and we feel blessed for having been in one of the states where they came.

It certainly was worth the one hour drive! 

On the way home it drizzled but it is again very mild here. 

Our frost period is over for now.
