September 17, 2022 Entomologist

We have all heard children (and many adults) say, "When I Grow Up..."
The world is full of opportunities and this month we are going to explore some of them. Join us in September as we create challenges based on careers . . . Who knows, you might decide what you want to be when you grow up!


When I Grow Up - Anon

Someday soon when I grow up, I’ll have a job to do
I’ll write a book or be a cook
Or work inside a zoo.
I might want to drive a bus
Or teach children to read
I’ll lead a train or fly a plane
Or plant a little seed.
I might want to fight a fire
Or be a doctor too
I’ll build a house or sew a blouse
Or sail the ocean blue.
So many jobs that I might choose
I wonder what I will be
I’ll work and learn
Until it’s my turn
To find the right job for me.


Remember - A new Blue Plate Special challenge is posted each Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, and participants have until the 3rd of the following month to complete and post their creations.

Prize will be a $20 Gift Certificate to their favorite online store (random drawing).....

*Winner will be chosen via Random.Org.
Today’s challenge is inspired by the entomology, the study of insects. The challenge is to add at least one insect to your page layout, and since insects like to be in the grass add something green. I added a butterfly, green mats for my pictures, and green leaves to embellish my page. The pictures are of Jorge and me celebrating our 30th anniversary, at our favorite spot in Corpus Christi. We’re wearing the green shirts I made. Green is the color for this anniversary. Have fun creating!

Fun challenge. I took an Entomolgy for Educators class at our local college years ago. It was so much fun. I still have my insect collecetion hiding in the attic. Funny I just printed a picture of a hummingbird moth the other night so I may use that photo on a page.
