I must say …

I do love winter light.

The instructions say to plant seeds in a shallow dish and move as needed for best light. Instructions I can follow! Not sure how I’m going to serve up this first little harvest. Maybe with slices of avocado and tomatoes on toasted bread rubbed with garlic. Theoretically, this cress is a spicy herb. We shall see. I’m not sure that I grow enough at a time to benefit from the nutritional value, but the simple act of planting a few seeds in a bit of dirt and watching the sprouts rise in the sun, that’s worth the effort alone.

A calm, if chilly, experience in late December.

I remembered seeing another feather earlier this morning. It lay upon the floor and I thought how lovely nestled at the foot of the bed. After photographing the little feather in the glass, I collected the larger feather upon the floor. And it too was a joy to photograph.

I was racing around and suddenly grew thirsty. I picked up a glass by the bed and just happened to look down before I swallowed the little feather that had slipped out of its pillow to drift into my glass. And so, did I then empty the glass and relieve my thirst? Nope. I raced around to different light sources to see how best to illuminate this unexpected treat.

when I focus on the wonderfully altered views. Heavy rains are coming with strong winds so I expect future views will change quite a bit.

… I only focus on the surface.

I was standing by the window waiting for them all to take flight and so I nearly missed the one that did.
