It is a very Foolish thing…

… to put the title of the day’s Weblog Post in the little box before I have looked closely at the images collected in the camera.

I was feeling disappointed in  my pictures of the last few days. They had been dreary and i was  expecting another set of dull shots. I was all set to talk about organisation or time management or some such thing.  Being organised does make me feel cheerful. 

But Bill’s camera who  seems to want to be called The Camera House, which makes no sense at all, had another idea.  (Is there a camera inside this camera?) I said to John while I was cooking, can you be me in the kitchen for 10 minutes. We are going out. 

And the light fell into perfect evening fullness and I was in the right place at the right time and magic happened. 

So we will have to leave our discussion on how to manage my time to fulfill all my ambitions for another day.

The daily view is changing ever so slowly. Behind the baby Magnolia is a young Maple and it is just starting to turn. Can you see the red stemmed dogwoods along the path in Sophie’s garden. They are beginning to turn too. On shopping day I am going to buy some more daffodils to plant in this garden for our spring entertainment.

Have a lovely day.

  1. “Can you be me in the kitchen for a minute…” Love it!
    And the photos, of course…
    The sun broke here, just as I was knee-deep in dinner prep, too, but my camera missed it…
    Looking forward to the Organization post – I could use some pointers 😉

  2. Really glad to hear I will soon learn some of your time management tips and techniques. In the meantime, the peahen shot reminds me of Jan Pienkowski’s illustrations – silhouettes with flourishes and details. His book called Christmas, is a feast for the eyes and mind. I read it every year to my class.

  3. Love the bee hives! We need to get ours ready for the winter, but I’m not exactly sure how. I couldn’t really understand the section in my book ‘Beekeeping for Dummies’ but it was confusing. Our beekeeper friends are coming over this weekend, so I hope the weather is nice enough to look together and get their advice!

    • very little, all I do is shut the top down and decrease the entrance gaps with little blocks of wood.. you have to be very careful of condensation so there still must be a little air flow.. mine have sat in sub zero temps for weeks and still come out of it ok.. as long as they have a good store of honey they will be fine. c
