Halloween postcards have been around for at least a century, mostly featuring black cats, jack-o-lanterns, witches or ghouls. Cards from the early 1900s will often read 'Hallowe'en.' Halloween can be a really fun time of year! And when it comes to paper crafts and card making it's a brilliant excuse to get creative!

This Vintage Halloween Postcard Clipart can be downloaded or embedded into your website or blog... with my compliments.. for free, nothing, gratis... nix nada.. ENJOY!! :)

My Six - Lessons My CHildren Taught Me

My Six

Thank You SquidooHQ for Awarding this lens the Purple Star

Thank you so much for taking an interest in my lens. I hope that the brief explanations and scenarios will provide a broader picture of where we are today and how we got here.

This lens is not typically about "me" but about something relating to "me". As part of the Rocketmoms Summer Session 2011 we're required to build a lens "about me" or as I read it, "my stuff" or "important things in my life". All right so they're not stuff, nor are they things, but they are incredibly special, and each has taught me lessons in life that I may otherwise have never known.

My children, Derek, Jessie, Doey, Savannah, Clarissa and Aiden, are the greatest loves of my life. Each is as different to the other as they are alike.

The Angel Connection

The Angel Connection

I don't have wings, but I'm a Soldier's Angel ; one day when I get big I would like to be a SquidAngel. I try to be an Earth Angel - but there are so many big footsteps to fill. I know my son, Aiden, has a guardian angel - or many. This page is about Angels, the perception of Angels, Angel beliefs and origins, and why people need angels.

Avocado Pears - Fruit or Veg?

Avocado Pears - Fruit or Veg?

We're in Mid-July here in the southern hemisphere. It's mid-winter and although it hasn't been the kind of winter one would experience in some regions of the northern hemisphere, we have experienced some "more than mild" spells i.e. it's been seriously bitter on some evenings, temperatures dropping to below zero.

I used to think that avocado pears were a summer crop, but looking at the enormous avocado pear laden trees in the beautiful garden of the wet-house I think I was horribly wrong in my previous assumption, or that because our winters are so mild, some days even hot, this crop can flourish throughout the year.

Say What? It's Against The Law!

Say What? It's Against The Law!

Doing research recently for a unit study on "where in the world does it come from?" for elementary schools, I stumbled upon a few websites that had me almost on the floor in tears of laughter... Uhhh... no really! In disbelief I clicked "Search" for information to substantiate the info I was reading, and of course off to the trusted Wikipedia for substantiation once again. Yes, sadly, it IS true... Throughout history people have made - and enforced - the strangest of strange laws and requirements in the governance of their countries, constituencies, states and provinces. Many laws stand today. I'm wondering if this is because they are so old they are forgotten or someone just hasn't had a chance to re-read the Book of Statues to see that Yes, times they are a-changing! Or, in many cases they have a-changed!
