Now here's a change and they look delicious. I am sure there are bakers among you but not me. I just like to drool .

Well I hoped that I could do a better job today and I still have my doubts but I'll sure try. I did have a quiet day , not going out at all so I can regain strength. I found yesterday tired me right out so today decided to stay in. Ray went out himself to Walmart. What was he thinking LOL. He said it was a madhouse. He only bought one item and the lineups were really long so he went up to another counter like maybe the return counter , asked if the lady there could help him. He has trouble straightening up so she could

see he was in pain and helped him out.

He came home and had a rest. Then he made dinner which was his sauce and spaghetti. The sauce was in the freezer and was still delicious. Marg brought over some chili and chowder but too late to thaw out so that will be dinner tomorrow.

Terra Cotta Warriors rediscovered by Chinese peasant farmers in 1974. The sculptures were to be the army of the Emperor Qin in his time of death . Qin was China's first emperor and he united China's warring dynasties. When they were found the lively colours had fade beyond recognition. There were 8000 clay soldiers, 130 chariots and 670 all of clay horses buried in the mausoleum with the Emperor. There have been scuptures developed since with the wonderful colours of the originals.

Here are the reproductions that are on the streets of Vancouver until this month.

Life size sculptures of the Terra Cotta Warriors.

Now for the cutie babies, puppies and kitties. Look out , here they come.

Rose standing up with support but Mary says she is now crawling for food. Daddy is holding out the food to tempt her and she is crawling to get it. I think I'll put up the video to see if you can see it.
