Exactly what I was thinking, too! Love the ponies, the countryside and the beautiful home, Jezer, great photos!

As far as the dripping container peeve, the first that comes to mind is our coffee carafe that invariably drips when it's full... you can count on the first cup poured will include drips on the counter, no matter how careful you are. Then there are those drink to-go cups that often have leaks and drip everywhere before you notice!


Good peeve, Jezer and Shep... thanks for clearing up that confusion, too!

Very aggravating, my coffee pot is always dripping, it drips when I pour the water in and it drips when I pour from the pot after it's brewed. Always a mess to clean up. Good one Bay and Jez!!

My complaint isn't drippy containers........its finding the lid to go on the container. A ton of lids and none of them fit.

Love the thatched roof jezer

I too, seem to be continuously wiping off lids to prevent stickiness. Once the maple syrup or honey lid gets "icked" up, you need a torch to get the darned things opened again.

Today, the only things dripping are the icicles hanging from the roof, and it don't hurt my feelings one bit! They were resembling stalactites.

Many thanks to PJ for sending the SUNSHINE this way!! ♥

OHHH ponies sweet. I saw the flooding in England on the news last night I hope you're far away from it Jezer. My lunch container drips sometimes into my lunch bag. Annoying all right.
