Colour and Cat

Blossom is such great stuff. Making pink and white trees and pink and white snow.

I was trying to emphasise the pinkness in this photo.
In my devastated garden things keep appearing in odd places. This Spring Green tulip sprung up in a pot. It made me think of a face with the two petal ears either side.
Lily in the unused compost bin. I am surprised none of the cats have sat in it before as it makes a good shelter from the rain or the sun.

I have done work today, and a little shopping and washing. Tomorrow I am finally going to finish the shrine and make donkey ears. I am also going to start the next stage of the garden. I will take off the tarpaulin which I hope has suppressed the rest of the weeds, and try to dig it over again and make it flat. Then I will look into trellises. Or through them! And camomile and gravel.

Yes, that is my question. How do tulips travel? How do those bulbs end up in such a variety of places all over the garden?

Lily's new shelter is a good one. Just right for cats who want to be out of the wind but in the know.

Love the pink!

Your cat looks ever so content in his newly found abode. Love your imagination - definitely a face with ears! :-) Another lovely day today, hope you have a good one.

The blossoms promise good times soon! You are always so busy, Sarah - and planning all kinds of projects - I do admire you having a full-time career and doing all your creative work as well. I think the more time I have the less I achieve. And frankly, when I am working on a (work) project, I find it difficult to do creative stuff. My brain kind of freezes into left-brain frozen fish fingers or something. See - I can't even think of a good analogy.

That's crazy how flowers will "move". We had pansies pop up right in the middle of our grass. I am assuming seeds blew from the pot?

Yes, Farmville & Cityville are games on FaceBook. I admit that I have an addiction to both!
