FOTD 21st February 2022: Poinsettia

Posted in FOTD by angloswiss

It is a bit out of season, but mine is still looking good almost two months after Christmas. The amaryllis leaves are keeping it company.

FOTD 23rd December 2021: Christmas Mixture

Posted in FOTD by angloswiss

I call it my Christmas corner in the apartment. My amaryllis has now lost the first flower, but the second is on the way and my poinsettia remains a trusty friend.

FOTD 20th December 2021: Poinsettia

Posted in FOTD by angloswiss

I always have a poinsettia at Christmas, but this year having Mr. Swiss away in hospital and now for a cure I did not bother. He will not be back home until after Christmas. However, a wonderful neighbour visited me and brought me this example complete with glitter. It really helped to lift my spirits.

At Christmas they have to dress it up. I am not sure if poinsettia really needs all that glittery stuff on the leaves, but I suppose it sells well.

angloswiss

Originally a cockney from the East End of London. Arrived in Switzerland 46 years ago and due to meeting Mr. Swiss, I am still here. Mother of two sons, have been adopted by 3 cats. Worked 30 years as an export clerk for a Swiss machine tool company and am now retired. Like to go for walks with my camera and write blogs, flash fiction, poems to make life interesting. Speak fluent German/Swiss German, French, Italian and some Russian. Mother tongue: still cockney english.

Freshly Pressed

51 Shades of Blog

Being honest the title is based on a remark made on one of my blogs by a supporter.
"You always turn a topic inside out and on its head" were words also applied by a visitor to one of my blogs. I think she hit the nail on the head.

Prompts are there to act on, not just tell everyone what you had for lunch or your likes and dislikes. I trust that on my blog you find something spiced with humour. Mr. Swiss, my other half, has been known to say that not everyone always understands my humour (I do not always understand his).

Blogging is for me coupled with having fun. I do what I want to and not what I have to.

Disclaimer: Not reponsible for any spelling or grammatical mistakes. I do my best, but having two langugages revolving in my brain (yes, I have one), sometimes the result is more bi- than unilingual.

A big thankyou to all my followers

Ahmed A. Abdulahi

I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.
