Monday Morning…

…woke me up to a glorious, frosty day.

The tulip showed off her hair frost…

 

…the Lady’s mantle unfolded her hidden gems…

and the old roses were still asleep, in golden, pink dreams.

A crispy, delightful day – who would think that of a Monday?

 

CFFC: Topic is Fun or Flowers

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Letter F – Topic is Fun or Flowers

Why not both? Now I will take a short blog break to go away and have some fun myself too! See you next week!

Some Chocolate?

Last summer I bought a Chocolate flower for my garden. The scent is …chocolate… at its best. I also love the rich dark colour of it. In fact this is one of the few surviving plants this wet and cold summer. I wonder if someone knows its real name?

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Letter E – Needs to have two E’s in the topic word

Since yesterday’s crash I have tried to pick (and cheer) myself up – and with the help of penicillin and the new computer – ta da! Berries and bluebells!

Thursday Thoughts

On my way to Varekai – Cirque Soleil. Hopefully an evening of wonders, colours, beauty, laughs and good food.

Have a great Thursday all – My thoughts also go to all those people waiting for Irma. Take care.

WPC: Structure

The perfect structure of the wings is best seen when the wings are closed – this Vanessa cardui, known as ”the painted lady”, displays a wonder of delicate structure. It is not very common in Sweden, but some three-four years ago we had about 20 of them in our buddleyas. This year, I have only seen two of them – but two wonders!
