There's a Dragon in my Art Room

This will be a quickie post.  For my loyal readers who like to leave comments on my blog, I want you to know I appreciate you.  I do NOT, however, appreciate the spammer who recently has been leaving links to some really inappropriate garbage in comments on the blog.  I have tried  using a word verification thingy, where you have to type what you see, but somehow the spam gets through.  Anyhow, I know it makes it much more of a pain for those of you who want to leave an honest comment.  So word verification has not been on the blog for a while and will not be returning.

Instead, as of today, I have added 'comment moderation' to the blog, which means that no comment will appear until I have approved it.  I believe I can handle these approvals quickly and easily, so there isn't much lag time until your comments appear, as I appreciate your desire to have your comments posted immediately.  This way, at least I know that these blatantly offensive comments with links to inappropriate comment will NEVER be seen by a reader of this blog.

So thank you for sticking with me.  If you are wondering about the photos in this post, they don't specifically have anything to do with the content of the post.  Though my cat does look pretty annoyed sometimes, doesn't she?  Beware to anyone who wants to mess with her; her veterinary chart has the word "WARNING" written across the top!   Seriously!  (Though usually she's a sweetie-pie.)

Speaking of pies - as for the blueberry pie above, the face on it does look pretty formidable too, I think.  It's an old photo; the face on the pie was pierced in the crust by my son, after I asked him to cut some lines in the pie for air to escape.  And this was what he did. 

Thanks again!  Next post will be back to some artsy stuff!
