Estate Basket

 

Estate sale in the 'hood this morning...estate sales are a very different experience now that I am no longer shopping for things to sell in my Etsy shops! 

The card in the (small) basket is handmade by a local artist with quilted fabric, and I got three of them, each different. And you can never have enough pairs of cheap gardening gloves...

Welcome Back!

 

Looks who is back!!! Yay! I have not seen a female around, so perhaps she is on the nest? 

Cameo appearance by a little house finch.

Nespresso Art: Bunny/Chicken

 

I dunno, I kind of see a waving bunny with chicken legs? Anyone else see something here?

 Gorgeous tulips (from Trader Joe's!)...

Pretty Chickie

 

Still Beauty

 

I found this beauty lying on the sidewalk. You can tell it had been through some stuff (missing area on its wing). I think it is a Western swallowtail butterfly, but it seems a bit small... So beautiful, even when not alive.

Nespresso Art: Laughing Bird

 

Friends Are the Best

 

When your friend messages you that there is warm bread outside your front door this cloudy/chilly a.m.  Thank you, Miss W., you're the best!

FIN.

Wildflower Walk, Day III

 

Wildflower Walk, Part II

 

Wildflower Walk, Part I

 

On Sunday, my sweetest B. took me on a surprise mini-road trip to Hemet, to Diamond Valley Lake. We hiked the wildflower trail, and it was spectacular! We think we saw at least 15 different species of flowers. Just gorgeous! I took so many photos that I am featuring a few for the rest of this week. Enjoy!
