A few forget-me-nots look so pretty with the pine tree.
The roses bloom.
Wildflowers in the shade.

Flowers Today
Little orange wildflowers
Poppies 2015 – after rain and wind – beautiful still.
A rose begins to bloom.
This is how the wildflower growing over the brick path looks today.

Rain
I was looking at past WordPress Photo Challenges, and thought I could try a photo today for Blur – “beauty in a blur” (challenge from April 3, 2015). This is from the house, through a window.

Ingredients
A recent Daily Post Prompt asked about Ingredients, and the one item in our kitchen we “can’t possibly cook without.” It could be a treasure from a relative, food etc. My answer is vegetables, lots of different kinds of vegetables. Every day. I cook with olive oil.
I made a different kind of list yesterday, for craft supplies to buy here and there. There was a nice discussion in the comments for my post about knitting. Thank you.
The photo is by Karl, from another summer. We went to the Sheboygan Farmers Market.

Photo Challenge – colors of the rainbow
The WordPress Photo Challenge this week asks for all the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.
So I am going to see if my photos so far can meet this challenge – at least as I see the colors.
Red
For orange, I took a close up photo of part of my Cezanne needlepoint picture.
I think indigo is another color in this painting.
Yellow
Green
Beautiful blues
Sometimes I also see indigo along the horizon.
Violet
Thank you,
