but I am certainly glad I looked.
Only a little bit of moisture so no great ice sculptures as before though I still see stars and lost universes.
Just light reflecting and refracting, striking the dust, and veiling that magnificent oak tree.
do you believe in magic?

I believe in magic especially this winter as I’ve watched frost form upon the windows. Read more at Creativity Portal about the Winter Window Magic I’ve seen. Enjoy!
upon a pale field

The name of the plant I do not know. Its cost was $2.48. I know that because the label is still on the side of the little plastic pot. I have never replanted it. I sometimes forget to water it and then when I do I sometimes drown it but it is a succulent and that seems to be okay.
I have tucked it in a very, very sunny corner. Perhaps for that reason it forgives my neglect and on occasion produces these magnificent pale blooms on pencil thin stalks that I snip and place in an old spice jar. I’ve been photographing them against a background of white vellum.
We’ll see what the rest of the winter holds, if new blooms will emerge. Meanwhile, I’ll try to show my appreciation by buying some soil later today so I can replant this (and several more) plants later in the week. 😉

A poinsettia sits in the kitchen window, a holiday gift still providing much pleasure.

A little wooden butterfly scotch taped to a piece of vellum that was taped to a sunny window. A bit of fun on a Tuesday morning. 😉

like a veil of stars

Ice upon windows is beautiful. At night that can be hard to remember as I shiver under the covers. But in the morning when the wintry sun strikes the delicate forms layered upon the glass … well, that’s a whole different situation, isn’t it? 😉
