I made the blanket because I loved the look of it and enjoy peace in my life. No worries at all about not answering my comment on your blog, it is nice to hear from you again. I hope you are doing okay.<br /><br />xTaniaTaniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10176661940614462611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-87359321824065429202022-09-02T19:17:20.872+09:302022-09-02T19:17:20.872+09:30That was a brilliant crochet project.

I don't know the full story behind the peace symbol, but it was designed by an artist, based on flag semiphores. Or communicating with flag positions, by human hand. The positions chosen for the insignia, are for the letters "N" and "D". Meant to represent, Nuclear Disarmament. That's just what I've heard. There may be other stories about it, that relates to anonymous' comment.<br /><br />Your garden looks amazing too. Sorry, I didn't get to respond to your comment on my blog - I had you on my mind though. It was nice of you to pop in.

Our peach tree is too big, wasn't pruned properly when young and the birds get the few peaches it produces..sigh, but the apricots did alright - always a silver lining.

I regret all I threw away. I've been filling the harder plastic OJ bottles for pantry water storage. Not long term but for several months. We had our well motor go out last month and while it was only 24 hours w/out water, it was eye-opening. We do have single bottles on hand but not much for washing.<br />Thanks for the tip.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02633912756265339462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-18392363412584588852022-03-06T21:54:37.553+10:302022-03-06T21:54:37.553+10:30Thank you Stephenie xxx

I am a little tied down here at the moment with baby sitting duties as my daughter has returned to work. But the cooler weather is coming and that is when I will travel. I am following along with Sally's adventures.<br /><br />I hope your garden and the guava are okay when you get home. This is why I don't go to far when it is hot because I have no one to water everything. In Winter I don't need to worry about it so much.<br /><br />So glad Bluey is doing better, he will be looking forward to returning home too. I see you already have a project for him to do haha! {solar dryer}. I also showed Phil. I reckon there will be a lot of those made after watching Gardening Australia last night.<br /><br />Sounds like many changes for you in the next 6 months, and happy you enjoyed your little holiday.<br /><br />xTania<br /><br />ps.
