Flowers call out


These days of spring, it's expensive for me to step out of the house. Most of the stores have beautiful, colorful, flowering plants that reach out and make me pick them up and put them in my cart. Sometimes it is their brilliant colors, or it could be a first time view for me that acts as a magnet.

Yesterday, I came home with this beauty:

an Erysimum linifolium (flaxleaf wallflower)
as well as a bright orange, and more common
gerbera.
They don't like our still cold nights, so I bring
them inside.
I won a $25 gift certificate to a local nursery which I will use tomorrow. I can't wait.

Insight

The Ultimate Irony
by Eleanor
April 4, 2007


It took the better part of my life to begin to understand the importance of being true to oneself.


By the time the clarity cleansed away the cluttered cobwebs of confusion, the scents of my decadence overwhelmed all sense.


Is this a glimpse of "the light at the end of the tunnel" for atheists?
