A Post on Hummingbirds and My Love Affair with Them
My post can be found on Medium.com (click the website link) today. As I previously informed my regular readers, I am taking a break from Poetry Friday for the month of August. Thanks!

A New Milestone: 1800 Posts
Earlier this week, I promised I’d write about some recent milestones. Today, I am writing my 1800th post on my WordPress blog, The Apples in My Orchard! Eighteen hundred posts! Wow!

Another Medium Post Today: Rough Morning Start.
Today, I posted on Medium.com. I have finally met the threshold for being paid as a writer on that platform. Therefore, for now, at least, I will be cross-posting between my WordPress blog and Medium page. https://carollabuzzetta.medium.com/the-best-way-to-start-your-day-not-1b6c769304d0 Thank you!

Foodie Monday: Buffalo Eats

Poetry Friday: Enjoying Dusk at the Lake
On two consecutive nights this week, I sat on our dock at dusk and watched the loons gather. It was an interesting time, one full of serenity and calmness, as well as appreciation for this bird I’ve come to enjoy. Both nights, seemingly, held a routine. Three loons were gathered in the middle of our…
