Fridays Fave Five May, my Favourite Month

Why oh why are there so little hours in a day? Can somebody PLEASE tell me that?
It's Friday again, it's the first day of my favourite month of the year. It'll be over before I know it, it has always been like that, and the days and the weeks and the years just seem to go by faster and faster each week. Like a roller coaster ride! Friday already today!
Aaah, but Friday means, Friday 's Fave's Five and I just love that meme.
See? Two favourite things, and I have not even touched my list yet!

So here we go!

1. The new PC. Well, okay, let's say my husband and I swapped computers. He had bought a new one a couple of weeks ago to use for his work, but for some reason it was not compatible with the network at his work, and my old one is!! So I'm the LUCKY girl!! I got the new one! Yaay for a new computer! Well, once everything works like it should, that is! It involved quite a bit of stress before everything was in working order, let me tell you! The old one had eaten my Photo Shop CD, can you imagine that? Fortunately, I was able to retrieve it. IN THE END, that is!! Awww!

But for some reason or another I seem to have lost my spell check, and I feel very uncomfortable and blind without it! You don't always know when you make mistakes, do you? Well, at least, I don't. So... ? I'll have to find a way to get it back somehow, but I'm not sure how to do that. In the mean time, please bear with me?

2. The first collage shows the favourites I was going to talk about this week, but as it happens, I'm posting late today, and because today was such a beautiful day, I've made another one! That's a sign of a great day huh, if it's worth an extra collage?

Now ... Let's see,? Ah!! New shoes!!
Yes, AGAIN!! But they were a STEAL! And I do know every woman says that after she went shopping, but you've got to believe me, they WERE!! And they're great!
Okay. The new clothes I bought? I had nothing more to wear. * giggles* Besides. They were a steal too! Ha!

3, Well I was going to talk about noodle soup and the potted herbs on my patio, ( which I LOVE to use in Summer.) but that does not sound like too important anymore.
Oh and the middle picture? That's the rain we had. But it looks pretty on a flower. Um. Can't believe I said that! What I meant was, I love those flowers, they're in bloom now but Im not sure what they're called, we call them Rhododendrons. One of my favourite Spring shrubs.

4. Ohh I'll better add my next collage I think?


On May 1st it's custom to gift a little bouquet of Lily of the Valey flowers, for good luck.
Last year they were very scarce because of the bad weather, but this year they're abundant.
I have some on my patio, and they're in bloom, which does not happen all that often. Mother Nature just does not use a calendar. Which is good.
The picture on the bottom right surprised me too today. The things a camera lense sees that you had not seen yourself are amazing sometimes. I had not seen the little black bug, but he did want to pose for me!!

5, Well that one is obvious, I'm sure!! Eating OUTSIDE!! Again!!
On the menu: Seabars with sepia pasta, "caviar d' aubergines", served with wokked red bell peppers and shallots. It was delicious. The pasta was great, I bought it at the weekly market, and it's the first sepia pasta I cooked that kept it's deep black colour, instead of turning into some kind of a slate grey-ish colour, which is not at all appetizing!


Ooooh, and not to forget the kiss my daughter sent me through Facebook.
Just a tiny message MWAH xx.
You have NO idea what that meant to me.
Honestly.


I hope you had a great week yourself !!
Hop on over to Susanne's at Living to tell the Story for more Fave Five posts!

I love photo challenges, I'm sure most of my readers know that by now!! I found this scavenger hunt over at Kirsti's -who is a wonderful photographer herself by the way- and decided to join in. The post from all the players had to be up by May first, and here is mine.
Of course, a scavenger hunt would not be a scavenger hunt if there was not a little competition involved. So please, if you like my photography, please please please hop on over to Sweetsauer's and vote for me please? I'm not going to beg for this again after this week is over. But I will beg and pleade for a vote every day of the week until May 7th! So brace yourselves!! (Or vote for me?)
