ABC Wednesday - A!



Got your dictionary out? You ready to play with the letters? It's that time again! ABC Wednesday is hosted by Mrs. Denise Nesbitt and the ABC team and we have new members to our team! Denise has added Annelie, Nathalie, Joyce, Donna, Helen and then, of course, us old guys -- well not literally, except for me -- Roger, Troy, Jay, Barb, Gattina and me! AND! this is the beginning of the seventh round! Is that cool or what? So, don't Abandon us now because today is the A day! Climb Aboard, don't feel Awkward! It's time for Action, I know it isn't April, but it will soon be August and there are lots of As just waiting to play!

A is for Apple, Apricot, Acapulco and Alpaca!



So grab your Accordion, play us a tune and get into the Action! You're an Adult now! And there's nothing Absurd About playing ABC!!

  14. Ciao Sylvia,
    le albicocche sono i frutti che amo tantissimo !!
    Docissime e tenerissime da gustare soprattutto in riva al mare :-))
    Buona serata amica mia.

  15. What a cute cute mosaic! That apple looks so crisp and wonderful, and, how I would love to be in Acapulco! Have a great week, Sylvia!

  16. The alpacas look so cuddly! I hope you have reason to use them again (larger) so we can see them up close!

    ReplyDelete
  17. The amount of wool those alpacas are carrying must be so hot! They could do with a nice trim!

    ReplyDelete
  18. WOW, those Apricots look so tasty.
    Great choice. Never seen Alpaca, though.
    Thank you.

    Have a good night, Sylvia!

  19. I'm new to the ABC Wednesday, so I think I need to try to be a bit more creative. Like that will ever happen! What a fun "A" post you have, I enjoyed reading it.

  20. Nice A's Sylvia! I haven't been to this meme much, I seem to draw a lot of blanks for words of the required letter! But when I saw the letter, and I already knew which picture I wanted to use this time, it just jelled.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Four great words and four great photos for our first day of Round 7!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Lots of great A's, and nicely portrayed.

    ReplyDelete
  23. The Alpacas are darling and your Acapulco photo just brought back memories of watching the cliff divers. It was so hot that day, but worth possible sunstroke to see them dive!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Believe me these are "A's" I haven't seen in many a time. Please have a wonderful Wednesday.

    ReplyDelete
  26. An eclectic selection of A's—all my senses have been touched. I can almost feel the softness of the alpacas.

  29. Great gaggle of A's. I'm partial to Acapulco. Apples. Apricots. Alpacas. :)

  30. Love the collage you have made. One of the participants showed apricot jam, now you have my mouth watering with fresh ones....

    Fun beginning for Round #7. So glad my friend Martha has decided to join us.

  31. The apricot and apple looks so fresh and yummy! I don't mind having them right now.

    ReplyDelete
  32. an abundance of amazing A. awesome :)

  33. Dear Sylvia,
    Thank you for your kind words.

    I see that you were also thinking of fruit!
    Apples are such a natural choice for the letter 'A'. I thought about 'Apricots' too, but decided to stick to apples when I went out to my garden. I made a very simple post this time. Otherwise, I often like to name lots and lots of words!

    It's great to begin again with abc-Wed.! I missed the beginning of round 6, so I am glad to be able to start with A.

    Best wishes,
    Anna

    For the benefit of other readers:
    A is for Anna!

  34. That sounds like fun. Do you know alpaca was the answer this morning that was driving me crazy. The clue was "looks like a llama" or something like that. I won't forget it now, I hope.

  35. BTW , my burglar story was partly made up by me. The end was not true.
    Sorry...

  41. A most adept and admirable collage. The alpacas might be a bit warm on the beach though they would look very cute.

    ReplyDelete
