    Hello Everybody!

    How is everything? Fine I hope. We are in spring in Brazil. My favorite season because I love flowers, nice breeze, the climate, etc. The yellow shrimp  ( Pachystichys lutea)below is in my living room. I have it for the hummingbirds.The spring is almost ending. the summer starts on December, which means hot days with temperatures of 40° C.  I'm a lady Avon too! So, when you listen to the ring bell, can be I saying 'Avon calling!' It is lots of fun . I love to do so. What cosmetic do you like or dislike? You can take a look at the Brazilian goods just for curiosity at http://www.folhetoavon.com.br/home.asp
