Daffodils mean springtime

The Daffodil has got to be my favourite flower. It is a signal of Spring arriving. Another reason I like them is they make me think of England. Here in the UK, they are everywhere. In the garden, along pathways, freeways, parks. They look great!

Those are pretty daffodils!  My fave springtime flower is crocus, I think.  Well, I like a lot of different bubs.  But actually, hardly any of them are blooming yet in PA.  There have been too many frosts.  I am hoping we are over the frosts, so the bulbs will live and flower.  Next week I am thinking of doing "Spring has Sprung" for the photo shoot in my blog, or at least "Spring".  I have waited this long b/c up north on the East Coast of the US, and other places in the US (and the world for that matter), spring has not arrived yet, LOL.  So there has been nothing to photograph.  So in a week or two, this will change.  Then I will be afforded a chance to photograph my flowers!  I will put them in the JLand Photo Shoot.  And maybe a pic or two of an animal (such as a cow)!  Do animals have anything to do with Spring?  Do they come outside more in Spring?  Just wondering, LOL.  I am originally from Washington, DC, and didn't see a lot of cows before I came to PA so I don't need their habits of going outside.  Let me know if you know!  Just email me at fisherkristina@aol.com  Thanks!

In Memory: Leo Pot

Today is one of those days that feels "empty" or "numb".    I attended a funeral for Leo Pot, who died on July 4th from Cancer.     Such a nice man, very successful with his businesses, and a great family.  Funny, sharp, witty.   He shared a glass of wine or two with me, and gave me thoughts on life after leaving my last job.    More important, he has a wonderful family.    It's hard seeing his 3 young daughters at the funeral, each dealing with grief.  Live each day to the fullest.  Make sure you get the most out of what you do, and spend time with people you care about. Rest in peace, Leo.   "On July 4, 2008 Leonardus Leo Josephus Pot, loving father and doting husband, left his earthly existence peacefully, at home, in the company of his family. Born in the fall of 1956 in Oegstgeest, The Netherlands to Martin and Joanne Pot, he would go on to complete a Bachelor's deg...

AOLers : Don't let people say silly things about your company

Don't let people say silly things about your company Yes I mean it. Your company. I read the blogosphere,  and often see articles on some feature or product that has been launched.   Then I follow the comments.   You get the normal AOL bashing,  some people who like it, some people who bash and have never used the product being reviewed.  All the normal stuff. But Frank Gruber set an example for me last year.  When he spots these comments, he follows up with a comment and (if possible) contacts the person who wrote the it. Often the comments don't have contact info or use real names.  But if they do, Frank will email them as follow up.  And the response is normally good.      If Frank can do it (as busy as he is), so can we all do it. The latest blog that struck me was this article " Yes, People Still Use AOL " on Silicon Alley Insider.  The first comment was negative, the third was negative.   ...

Pizza - with egg on it? A Paris delight!

Tonight at a late night snack after lots of walking, pizza... And boy did it taste good. I have never had pizza with egg on it, until in Paris. But though it looked a bit odd, it tasted yummy. What's on your pizza? Tags: pizza , paris , france
