Just a bit of everyday life going on around here. Nothing exciting happening this week, but I’m ok with “nothing exciting” most of the time 🙂

TWiP: Saturday and Thursday
This week is an example of what I was afraid would happen if I stopped requiring myself to take a photo a week. I have four images from Saturday, two from Thursday, and nothing else. Who knows what I was doing the rest of the week? Not me!

Peony season ended in an explosion of pink petals on my kitchen counter. I always want more time with these gigantic blooms. I must say, though, when they’ve decided they’ve had enough, they self destruct magnificently, in voluminous piles, photogenic in their own right.
