How to Fix Email Notifications of Comments ... passing on a helpful hint from Mia

Update 11th August 2018:  Unfortunately, this fix didn't last very long!
Ah well, in the bigger scheme of things that happen in life, this is not a biggie.  Cheers, Sue xx

Hello!

Recently,  Susi  of  froebelsternchen blogspot provided, in one of her recent posts,  a link to Mia's Blog Craftartista, where Mia explained How to Fix Email Notifications of Comments.

Not visiting my blog every day, I'd set the comments section up so that comment moderation turns on 7 days after my posts are published and from that time onwards I am notified by email  of any comments.  That way I didn't miss blogfriends' visits.

This system fell down when Blogger changed things.

Now, following Mia's step by step instructions it is once again working beautifully, so everything's back on track once more... thanks Susi and Mia!

Not for the birds anymore!

Hello!

Our mandarin tree is currently bursting with sweet delicious fruit and for the past week we've been (reluctantly) sharing it with the birds: 

Not any longer though, a bit of netting does the trick:

... and they're all ours:

Oh bliss, they're such a treat!

I'd read once about making a cake with whole orange/s and am thinking I could do the same with mandarins so I shall do a bit of a search for a recipe. 
If anyone has a favourite, I'd really appreciate a link :D)

Thanks for popping in!
