a) words are overrated b) except pie-hole. that’s a good word.

Today’s mostly about the pictures.

This is our old stand-by – the flowers continue to emerge, from the outside in.

I only saw there was a bug in here once I got the picture up on my laptop. (I was playing with the point-and-shoot today, which doesn’t have a view finder – it’s a great little camera for shoving in weird places and then being surprised at the results.)

question of the day: is there such a thing as too much strawberry rhubarb pie? your thoughts, please.

  1. Perhaps your unknown white and pink flowers might belong to the Spiraea genus? Birchleaf and rosy spiraea?
