- A couple of weeks ago, I started to receive numerous anonymous spam comments and some did even end up being published.
- It also has affected the listing of my Popular Posts, on the sidebar but that will get sorted out again over time.
- Even if they do end up in the Spam, it is rather annoying for having to delete them. So what did I do to stop this?

Instead of having Anyone comment, I now changed to Registered User and the Spam Comments have completely vanished!
- Previously I'd left this open to Anyone as there are lots of silent followers, especially relatives, that never ever comment anyway, so what's the purpose of keeping that option open?
- Maybe some of you find this helpful as well.
- So glad it worked for friend Tammy! Read her comment on {Mom's 5th Dialysis Anniversary}
- If some of you have other tips to share; more than welcome to leave a comment!
Wishing you a great week; wherever you are!
Saturday evening, we had a dinner for six friends at our home. Just like to share with you my table setting. From husband Pieter, I had a dozen white roses and in our garden we just found enough Fragrant double Obdam narcissus for putting in the individual Delft white picture frames, as a place setting. We had heavy rain on Saturday but inside it was cozy.
- Real Wax Carved Rose tea lights (battery operated Flameless Candles) in white, when lit they look yellowish.
- White ceramic roses as center piece, together with the Baccarat Harcourt pitcher with real white roses.
- You can see this Baccarat Harcourt pitcher in a previous post, see link below.
- Gumbo Soup spoon is Bridal Rose by Alvin and other flatware is my Gero Zilmeta 528 Menuet.
- Baccarat Piccadilly stemware.
- French Pillivuyt charger...
- Le Jacquard Français tablecloth.
- Table got set for 8 of us.
- Before I placed a fork to the left of this plate, I took the photo...
- Don't you like to have cozy dinners with friends when the weather is cold, windy and rainy?

Due to enormous amounts of rain over the past couple of days, we have a full and wild creek running through our property. The bridges had been elevated, as we learned from previous raging waters. So far, so good. Pieter took some photos with the iPhone.
Let's have a look at our wild creek...
- This is our newest bridge, close to the road as you see. Husband Pieter finished it just before Valentine's Day in 2012.
- It looks more like a lake now and over the years this has grown in diameter a lot by raging water swirls.
- Branches and all kind of things get to travel down the creek.
- Looking from across the bridge towards the house...
- Showing our center bridge as well...
- This shows the two bridges.
- In the end you also see the first bridge; we got three in total.
- Lots of rain but it would be far better if it came over several weeks instead of a couple of days.
Are you getting a lot of rainfall in your neck of the woods as well?
