Warning!!! Watch out for scammers

My mom saw an advertisement for some anti wrinkle cream she thought my sister would like. So she read the statement on the site and ordered it. (See below from website) She didn't realize there was more to the Terms than what she saw posted. They charged her almost $200.00. I called and got hung up on 3 times before I finally got a call through. Then was put on hold for over 10 minutes so hung up and dialed again. I got through... FINELY!!! Well the person didn't speak English very well and was upset that he had to repeat himself (sorry!) But CLEARLY stated No Refund! So... Click on all terms and make sure before you follow through with any online purchase, if nothing else research the product too. As this one brings up a lot of Scammer reports.

One is Equinox Serum and the other is Ski Prime wrinkle free. They didn't giver her a confirmation number or anything for a receipt for when she bought it, read below... Get number from bank statement..
Don't know about you but most Banks are paper free or the statement only comes once a month so you are buggered before it comes.

So good rule of thumb----- "If it Sounds TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE~~~ It usually is"
Hope your week is better.... XO Nana

An Update on the Chickens and Geese

Here are a few pictures of our babies... Not babies anymore. LOL We have 2 roosters, I love to hear them crow.  Today they were competing on which one was better I think as they kept taking turns crowing and chasing the girls. HA ha Typical rooster. The one is Rudy, he is a Gorgeous rooster and the other well.... we weren't sure if it was a hen or a rooster at first as he has no spurs, and just got his comb and waddle all the sudden. He is Cousin Itt... You will understand when you scroll down and see him. Rudy is a brother to Itt, Prissy, Little Girl and one more. Forgot to get a picture of 2 of the hens. Mama (an Australorp) is the one that hatched these out. Itt and one other had mohawks and if they didn't look funny. We called the black hen with the mohawk Hohawk, but a dog killed her. One of the Barred Rocks vanished. Have no idea as there were no feathers or anything.. Out of the ones we bought 2 barred rocks, 2 Rhode Island Reds, and 2 Ameraucana we have 3 left. Sweetheart is a Barred Rock, (Red is a RIR but forgot to get a picture of her) and Gorgeous Flame is a Ameraucana.

 Sweetheart is a Barred Rock

Mama is an Australorp

 Little Girl

 Prissy

                                         

3 Japanese Bantams AKA The Buff Sisters. HA ha ha

And these are the goosers... Not sure if male or female 

But have a suspension that 2 of them are males.. nasty temper and they hiss a lot!

Their knobs on their heads are big too. Not sure if they are African Geese or Chinese Geese.

If you have any comments on breads or anything feel free. I love to learn different things about critters.

Well have a good week, tomorrow is Hump Day!

Hopefully it will be the start of a better year. Can you believe is it 2014?

You are my Sunshine!!!!

I have such fond memories of this song. Mama use to sing it to us when we were real little. Then when we were old enough we would all sing it together, in round or harmony. (kind of) ;-) I taught it to my boys too. It is a family song, now even Felix sings it with me. When I am down and having a hard time missing the boys or when I would miss mom I would sing this song and bring a smile to my face. (I know where else huh...)
I have a stack of paper I got years ago and never used. I finely decided to use some. I wanted to make the box from the earlier post but didn't want to use paper I really liked in case I messed up the first time. And I have a whole stack of this paper so.... And I love it!! I am keeping this one for myself. I am going to make my mom one with the Chrysanthemums from the previous post. Will post a pix when done.
Well enough chatter... here is the box.

Kind of cute if I do say so myself. 

Have a great weekend!~Nana

Paper Chrysanthemum

I told you last night I would share these, I just love the way they turned out. Will be great to use on lots of things too! Tutorial - Chrysanthemen aus Papier by Steffi Nitzpon  These ladies are so much fun to listen to too. I don't understand German, but they are having so much fun together, I smiled through the whole clip. Enjoy!!  Now here are a couple of pictures of mine.

If you make some, have fun. I sure did. I cheated a bit too. I used my Cricut to cut out the scalloped circles. I was able to get 9 flowers out of one 8 1/2 inch by 11 inch piece of card. Not bad...
XO Nana

Some more boxes

All-righty then.... Here is where I got the tutorial and instructions to make these lovely lovely gift boxes.
http://flowersribbonsandpearls.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/the-origami-box-tutorials.html

Too Cool of her to share huh! Well looky here at some pretties too
http://gardenpinks.wordpress.com/2013/12/15/origami-gift-boxes/  Lynn did a beautiful job on her boxes. Gave me a push to try and finish some of mine. Been half done since Felix was here last. And have yet to photo the first box which I claimed as my own. I'll share why when I get pictures of it.
On with the pictures....

 

 

 

I love making these boxes. Keeps my mind and hands doing some thing pretty and good.

I've really been fighting the blues lately. Not seen the sun in a few days and having a difficult time dealing with the deaths of more friends. Well it is almost 3 am and I need some sleep. Been working on some chrysanthemums for cards. Will get pictures of them and a link to the video of how to make them. 

Night Night! XOXO Nana

I'm a Baadddd Blogger....

I'm so bad at blogging lately. Been either sick or very busy or both. lol

Hubby was home most of last week sick, but got himself to work today.  Had an anniversary party last night for my little sister and niece and their hubby's.  Didn't have any gum past or tools so made paper and ribbon decorations.  Want to see how it turned out??? They are just 6 inch cakes and had cupcakes on the side.

L- loves shoes, the higher the better. lol S- loves his flip flops.

What a combination. ;-)

 Triple Chocolate Fudge cake with raspberry filling.

 I made this box for my sister it is all paper and ribbons, the roses are paper too.

This cake is White Chocolate with raspberry filling.

Bows match her box.

Mom cooked a big roast with gravy, mashed potatoes, corn, and broccoli.

Both of my sisters (the one that is married with her hubby), and my brother were here. 2 nieces (the one that is married with her hubby)((kind of a given since it was their anniversaries...)), the next door neighbors and my Felix is here for the week. Hubby was too sick to be around anyone so he stayed upstairs and I took him a plate. So had a nice group for dinner and someone brought a pumpkin  pie and lots of whip cream. 

Little sis was giving the kids shots in their mouths filling them up with whipped cream. LOL 

It was funny to see their reactions. 

Well an update on the Chickens is we have one laying eggs right now. We have had 8 eggs in 10 days, so I figure that is pretty good considering it is freezing here at night. The geese are getting huge and lovely to hear. If I am late for their breakfast they come and tap on the glass sliding door. And if they are out of water they will tap on the down spout of the gutters. 

Hope everyone his having a good week, will try to be back soon.

XOXO Nana
