About lifelessons

My blog, which started out to be about overcoming grief, quickly grew into a blog about celebrating life. I post daily: poems, photographs, essays or stories. I've lived in countries all around the globe but have finally come to rest in Mexico, where I've lived since 2001. My books may be found on Amazon in Kindle and print format, my art in local Ajijic galleries. Hope to see you at my blog.

      My dogs jump up and pick the hibiscus flowers and eat them!!! Luckily many are too high for them to reach or they’d eat them all. Strange, strange. They eat clover and grass as well. I had to dig up all the Lantana as it is poisonous for dogs and they even ate it!

      Dolly, I was sure I’d answered this, but don’t see it so will tell you again that a very popular and healthy drink called Jamaica (Humy’cuh) is a favorite here in Mexico. It is made from dried red hibiscus flowers steeped in boiling water and sweetened with sugar. Delicious.
