Photo of the Day | Buttercups in Blue Vase . . .

I love these shiny little yellow flowers that grow wild with no coaxing or care. My kind of wildflowers! I think they look so pretty in the antique cobalt blue bulb forcing vase that is white on the inside.

Thanks for stopping by the cottage. ♥Rosemary

More random photos from the cottage . . .


House wren peeking out at me.


House wren sitting on the fence.


Buttercups. Remember holding these under your chin?


Webster or Mr. Handsome.


Tabitha. I don't know why her eyes are two different colors.


Dogs are so smart. I was outside the screen door and
noticed that Webster was using a shadow as sunglasses.


I got this birdbath at my friend's garage sale.
It is way tall and is made from a garbage can lid.
I love it. No bathers yet.

Another version of the Henry Ward Beecher quote . . .


I made another version of this quote. The first version appears in the post below. Which do you like better? Just curious. I call this one The Polaroid.

I am still having fun with my new camera lens. I couldn't get a good shot of the lily of the valley without doing the army crawl in the dirt so I picked it. I love the way it looks on the scallop shell. Click on the image for a larger view.

Happy Friday. Enjoy the long weekend. Have fun whatever you do. ♥Rosemary
