Don't you love the floral nosegay used as a bookmark? How pretty these posies look inside the antiquarian book. The sun is finally shining brightly at my house and there is a heavy dew this morning. When everything dries out I have lots of mowing to do. Have a wonderful Thursday. I'll be back later, Rosemary.
Is it dark yet? Can I go to bed while it's still light outside? Eight o'clock is usually my bewitching hour to jump under the covers and watch prime time TV. When I turn out the lights and fall asleep I hope I'll dream about this beautiful rose garden. Goodnight. See you tomorrow morning.
I though I was busy until I found this photo of a Mama Duck and her 10 precious yellow ducklings. She really has her wings full, doesn't she? I am simply swamped with paperwork and am working as hard as I can to dig myself out. Luckily it is too cold and wet to work outside.
Such good taste was shown in this renovation of a circa 1900 New Jersey farmhouse. Agreed?
I've never seen a blue poppy. Amazingly beautiful National Flower of Bhutan - Blue poppy (Meconopsis betonicifolia).
I'd say this kitchen is really over the top, wouldn't you? Don't you love the bread drawers? I think it's way too pretty to mess up. Every time I cook from scratch my kitchen looks like a cyclone hit it. If I am doing holiday cooking I can usually keep it under control but when I bake cookies on the spur of the moment I'm in big trouble. Why is that? I guess my mind isn't ready and didn't get enough advance notice.
I want some of this delicious looking baked french toast NOW from The Pioneer Woman Cooks. Warning, Ree Drummond makes Paula Deen look like a rookie when it comes to using the richest, most fattening ingredients on the planet. I never even thought of tearing up the bread like you do for a strata. Let me know if you make this. Now I'm going downstairs to eat my boring oatmeal.
I know how this raccoon sleeping in a tree feels. I'm tuckered out too. Goodnight. See you in the morning.

Happy Mother's Day. Nobody loves you like your mom. Be nice to her today.
Look to your right and you'll see the female bluebird on the garage roof (click photo to enlarge). I didn't even see her while I was snapping away at the colorful male with my trusty Nikon SLR
this morning. The males get all the glory in spite of the fact that it's Mother's Day and the nest is full of eggs in the house these two occupy near the big tree. Guess he decided to give her a short break. Can bluebird babies be far behind?
I used my Nikon D40 digital SLR with a Nikon 18-200 zoom lens
.
I love this beautiful landscape of red and yellow tulips in tall grass with trees. Have a great Sunday and a Happy Mother's Day. I'm serving my mom breakfast in bed.
