It’s an elegant lady ….

… wearing white glove at the end of her bare arms.

She catches one’s eye other ways …

Her voices captures your attention as she sings …

She displays elegance, beauty, and charm as she sings with confidence

Greetings Rosemary Clooney (1928-2002)

Through Swing Around Rosie, ArtWorks honors a local legend who went onto become an entertainment star – Rosemary Clooney.

I had to flee a bunch of vans and a couple of trucks, while taking pics of a mural.

I was forced around the corner onto a wee side street, and found this bit of joy.

Reading is wonderful!

Watching TV, whether series, movies, music videos, virals or documentaries is entertaining and relaxing. Networked, streamed or on DVD is fab.

Toronto’s Red Rocket (public transportation) won’t take you across the ocean, but it symbolizes traveling from here to there.

Blow me up!

  Ste J Reviews covers all.

Moss Park Market

It’s a wonderful place to buy fresh veggies and fruits, in a shipping container.

The container was donated. The donors fixed up the inside to be a fresh produce market.

The donors also installed electricity, heat and AC, so that it could be opened year round.

Located in an inner city part of Toronto, this endeavor is bringing healthy food to very low income people and families who would normally not afford it.

As there are no operating costs, the food is priced well below market.

Read the CBC article about Moss Park Market

The moment I laid eyes on the colorful renditions of the fruits, veggies and flowers decorating it, I knew I had found my Thank You post for Benji and Ms. Zulu.

You might remember that Benji and Ms. Zulu hosted a Vegetable Garden post for Kids” Month.

Every city should have projects like this to help out.

⭐ ⭐ THANK YOU, BENJI & MS. ZULU! ⭐ ⭐

Benji and Ms. Zulu were the best helpers I ever had. They know a lot about planting, watering and why we should not use pesticides. You can visit them by clicking on their names or on their pic.

They want to remind everyone to visit “Vegetables & Fruits Dogs Can & Can’t Eat”

Also, you can visit their mom’s blog by clicking on the picture of the flower. It is a very pretty blog & is called by their mom’s name, Anarette! ⭐ Thank you, Anarette! ⭐
