Possibly? I just came back after a break and I'm still trying to figure out the current trends and challenges.

Close-up of a henbit deadnettle flower for #MagentaMonday - a tiny bloom from a humble weed. Often overlooked, yet such a beauty. Flower for thought 🤔

I carry a thousand opinions,
a river of restless words.

But why spill them
if they harden into chains?

Better to keep them light,
like clouds drifting,
leaving others free
to breathe their own sky.

Color teaches the beautiful vocabulary of freedom 🌿

I should mention her fur looks patchy because her winter coat is growing in. She's a very healthy young lady.

Thank you!

A visitor came to my garden a little bit ago. She nibbled on my flower beds a bit, but I let her be since she's looking a bit on the skinny side. They're predicting a colder than normal Winter this year. She needs to plump up!

A coral rose rests in quiet radiance, its tender glow reminding the heart of kindness and peace.

Happy #Rosewednesday !

Nature is teaching me patience today. I stepped outside to go mow the lawn and it started raining. The sun started shining and I thought - maybe, just maybe - since it was such a brief rain shower I could still mow the lawn...

It is currently sunny with rain, but not a rainbow in sight ~ sigh~

#PinkMonday

🌱 Gardening tidbit ~ Pink petunias are pollinator magnets, especially attracting hummingbirds and butterflies with their soft pink hues.

#flowers #onlybeautifulthings #Bloomscrolling

This photo shows a cluster of pink-and-white petunias in bloom. The trumpet-shaped flowers have white petals with bright pink star-like streaks radiating from the center, creating a striking pattern. They grow among green leaves, with sunlight highlighting their soft texture and a few older, dried blooms nearby.

Good morning! Insomnia decided to visit again, so I’m greeting this #BlueSkyMonday a little earlier than planned. 💙

If hope you were lucky enough to catch some solid sleep! Regardless - Here’s to finding little joys wherever we can -even if we're exhausted!

#OrangeSun

Sun burns, shadows dance
orange fire leaps bearing green
daylight sings, then wanes

It was a hot Summer day. The heat pressed down, the breeze pulled it away, and the sky kept shifting with every moment of sun igniting, shade soothing. Standing there photographing the lily, I felt like the day itself was breathing.

A close-up photograph of a vibrant orange Asiatic lily in full bloom. Its wide petals are speckled with darker freckles near the center, glowing like fire against the green leaves surrounding it. Dappled sunlight and moving shadows ripple across the petals, creating a shifting play of light. The flower stands tall, vivid, and alive, with the sense of a summer breeze stirring through the scene.

I like to sauté them in a touch of real butter with garlic and onion. If I'm in the mood for sweet & sour I'll drizzle with a bit of balsamic vinegar =)

Both! The younger, tender leaves are delicious raw in salads They’ve got a mild, earthy flavor, but they older leaves get more bitter as they age. Similar to spinach and other leafy greens in that sense.

Under quiet sky
a bloom leans into the breeze
life is but the wind

This morning, as the wind blew gently caressing the morning glories and I took this photograph, I felt the weight of my parents’ aging. Sadness, acceptance, and beauty, all at once. What an odd feeling.

Never suspected I'd find a cat lounging between the catmint in a flower bed 😆

Happy caturday everyone!

I captured this beet leaf just after the rain. The droplets looked like tiny jewels. 🌱 Beyond their beauty, beet leaves are loaded with vitamins A, C & K, plus minerals like calcium and iron. Too good to toss aside after roasting the roots

Going through my photos from this morning, I came across this little guy. Couldn’t help but laugh - looks like they’re striking an anime/manga running pose. All that’s missing are the motion lines! My little ninja bee!
