At long last: That photo shows the most accurate color, but this isn’t bad. And I do like the lighting in this third shot. The black tulips are lovely but hard to photograph well. For images, the white tulips stole the show. I didn’t do a whole lot this weekend. The cold I’d been fighting […]

Back. Exhausted.
Got home at 3:30 this morning, after an airline incident involving “precautionary fire trucks”. All was fine – that announcement from the pilot was the scariest part of the whole thing. The extra five hours was the worst part – that made the whole trip (bus, train, plane) a 24-hour marathon. It will take a […]

I’m even of Irish ancestry, and year-round, not just today. While walking to work this morning, I was entertained by a piper. […]

I’ve already introduced you to poppets and their pastimes, and have inspired at least two readers to bring some home. What I didn’t realize was that poppets are talented prognosticators. Through their powers, I’ve learned more about the origins of these mysterious creatures, and am sharing my new insights with you all.
Poppets go shopping
Who knew how much poppets like the produce section? They were less sure of the bakery. More
