Welcome, welcome!


I have some very exciting news! I have just begun a new wonderful series - what we can call a "mini-series" - of puzzle blogs! I bought a four pack of puzzles at Target yesterday, and I plan on blogging all about it the next several days.



There are four beautiful landscapes by Roger Nannini in this set aptly named "Home Sweet Home".



I will discuss each one in detail below in the order which I will be doing them.



1. The Rainbow Works. This is some type of rainbow factory run by delightful Amish farmers. I picked this one first because I went to Target knowing I was doing a rainbow puzzle for my friend Janet. This was the only rainbow option, and it led me to the whole set of four. There is tons of rainbows in it. Rainbow colored cows, and, of course, some chickens. It also looks easiest.



2. Next up: Pop's Pumpkin Patch. Fall colors and tons of chickens at this Amish looking pumpkin farm run by "Pop" - who seems to be the old man with a beard and a cane in the front of the picture. It looks pretty easy, and it has the word "Pickles" in it, always a bonus.



3. Milky Way Farms. A dairy farm that seems to be run by a very frail old man. Perhaps that is only a farm hand for the rich owners who live in the city. There is a dog in this one. A pick cow. Plenty of chickens and cow puns.



4. Dreaded. Sunny Farm Winter. Looks brutal, tons 0f white, some red and black, and sparse on the chickens. Hardly anything interesting here, mostly hokey, lots of hearts. There are a few things to look forward to, though - some weird looking kids that are straight out of Emmet Otter and a brown dog. Maybe 4 pieces, total.



Well, here we go!
