Weekend Reflections

It's Soho in NYC, but my first thought when I
saw this reflection was Gaudi in Barcelona.

52 Photos Project

The prompt this week: revisit one from the last year.
My choice is Week One: Nourish
I'm glad to go back to the beginning of this meme,
since I was several weeks late to the party. When I visit the
greenmarket, I sometimes feel guilty about buying flowers
—then I remind myself that they nourish my soul every bit
as much as the veggies, etc. I buy there nourish my body.

And who wouldn't love to
wake up to this sight?

Today's Flowers

Once again I have to say that
I have no idea what these bright
pink blooms might be—maybe
someone can tell me—but
aren't they fun?

Weekend Reflections

One of my fave spots in Paris—the
beautiful, romantic Medici Fountain, 
in the Jardin du Luxembourg.

The prompt this week: a love note.
I was very young and he wasn't famous yet.
As we sat at a café in Paris, he asked the waiter for a
scrap of paper, wrote these lines from Shakespeare's Sonnet #29
(and got them mostly right), then pressed the paper into my hand.
Hadn't thought about him for ages, but I've kept his note for 45 years!

Today's Flowers

There's nothing blooming in the garden right now,
but I received an amaryllis bulb for Christmas.
I planted it, watered it, and tried not to check for
progress on a daily basis. But it grew and began
to bloom, and one day when I looked—
lo and behold—this miracle had appeared!

Weekend Reflections

Here's the thing about reflections,
especially if you're always looking 
for them—they're everywhere!
