Pie

My aunt came up from Florida and brought her dog. It is a miniature Pomeranian. Her name is Prissy. Tomorrow my other aunt is coming up from Georgia. They have some foods you can only get here and some of them they really like so that is a highlight of their trips. For my aunt from Florida it is Boston Creme Pie from a specific diner that makes it really good. I started selling my summer scents. I have got a lot of orders so far.

Lizards

Today I have family coming up from Florida. I am very excited, but I have to get everything ready. Also I found a really cool video. It is lizards called Flat Lizards. They leap into the air to catch black flies. Black flies are their main food. Here is the link to the video.

Toads and Cooking

The top two pictures are from me at the cooking demonstration I did on the 5th. I thought it was fun and I would do it again. The third one down is of two toads that decided to live in our back yard. They are most active at night but they are still there during the day. We think it is a mother and a baby because the one came on the other one's back. Also because one is smaller.At the very bottom of the post there is a video of the toads. I had to take it at night because they are most active then.

Cooking

On the 4th I delivered the candles to school and got a lot of compliments. With the new supplies I am using everything is much nicer and smells much stronger. I had all of them done a week early actually. Also on the 5th I helped a restaurant called the Esta Esta with a cooking demonstration. I was the second hand person. In return they promoted my candles. I made some money and handed out a lot of business cards.
