I discovered a second nasturtium bloom! Just one and inspiration enough for this small spring salad of pea sprouts, red onions and tomatoes dressed with a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper. 😉

playing the blues

Even though I don’t know technically how to oil paint that doesn’t prevent me from occasionally picking up a brush and playing with the hues.
And what do I produce? Usually a mess.
Or in this case what I call my little yellow bird in a blue jacket.

float

In the hallway there’s a small wooden box tucked under a table. A spider made a web. The spider moved on but the web remained. Leaves drifted down from the plants up above. Nasturtium and parsley. Two leaves. They dried in the sun, unnoticed, until I began my spring cleaning. I decided to let them float for just a while longer.
just one

I’d grown them from a few seeds earlier in the winter. When the seedlings grew thick I separated them into two pots and stationed them at two different windows. Many small leaves with long stems as the plants reached for the sun. I’ve not been the best caretaker and so I mostly watched the green leaves turn beautiful shades of gold as they dried on the vine. But then just as I was contemplating emptying the pots in preparation for some new spring thing, I noticed a bud. Just one. It finally opened today. And again, like last year, I was taught patience. 😉

for the sake of the radish

I keep telling friends it was the radish that took me out. Not a slippery floor or a missed stair. I pulled a muscle in my back because I was trying to get the perfect shot of these roots on my radish seeds. I’ll never look at the radish the same way again. Have a good Friday, folks. 😉
