Remember Peregrine Farm from the creek painting in the post below? Here are some poppies from the farm, sold at our local farmers' market by Alex and Betsy Hitt, Peregrine's genii and owners. Love them. Alex and Betsy, that is. The poppies, too, come to mention it.
My husband makes breakfast every Sunday and it's a highlight of my week. Case in point, breakfast in progress this morning:
Speaking of joie, here are some photos of my garden, taken yesterday morning. The third week in May is a glorious one every year, a pinnacle of flower, color, fragrance, form.
Hope your Sunday is/was full of joie.
WElcome.
I found you through looking for some photos related to the Glass House built by Philip Johnson. Have you see it. Such a marvel. And saw the header of your blog. What a beauty.
I liked to see the development of your eye, and the lightness of the line.
How amazing to observe the way to simplicity...
beautiful and rich colours
with Love

I second and triple all the comments about the Poppies at Peregrine Farm drawing! I am certainly not one who falls in love with drawings of flowers but that is one beautiful drawing! I love your confidence in your drawing and watercolor painting..it definitely shows through in your strokes!
thanks so much for sharing. Thought you'd like to know that I made that drawing my desktop!

Oh, thank you! You do my heart good.
Yes, those are standard roses in pots, Judy. The rain we've had recently has been so fantastic! We can't get complacent, though, having had horrible droughts twice in the past four years and approaching, as we are, the hottest and driest part of the year. Conservation is the key!
