The prompt for Week 52—"like silk"

Actually, I have some silk peonies, and
they
look very much like this real one.
Well, maybe not quite as beautiful.

The prompt for Week 51: "simplicity"

Just coming into bloom this past Sunday,
 the first tulip of the season was a
creamy white—and very simple—one 
called 'Sweetheart'.

The prompt for Week 50: "indulgent treats"

Actually, I showed some pretty good
treats last week too, but those are available
right here in NYC.  Going for these really would
be an indulgence; I'd have to fly all the
way to Paris and visit Blé Sucré, a patisserie
that also has what many consider the
best croissants in town.

The prompt for Week 49: "pastel colors"

At the Ladurée shop in Manhattan:
picking out an assortment of
yummy macarons in pretty pastel colors.  
The flavor of the pink ones is rose—
delicious, but I only ever choose my fave, 
caramel au fleur de sel.

The prompt for Week 48—"empty space"

I'm a fortunate woman—who got to sail
around the Galapagos a couple of
years ago.  The first night out, I woke up
around 3 a.m. and went up to the bow of the boat.
Nothing but moonlight on the Pacific
as far as the eye could see.

The prompt for Week 47—"liquid"

. . . or at least what's left of the water, wine,
and coffee that were enjoyed with lunch at
Circonstances, a great Paris restaurant.

The prompt for Week 46—"gold"

All that glitters . . . may be the chandeliers 
and the gilded ceiling of the Metropolitan Opera, 
at Lincoln Center in New York.
