At the window my one pea blossom continues to bloom reminding me of a garnet drop.
The radish seeds with which I had such early, painful adventures have leafed out. I harvested some to form this base of a salad.
The flowers, plucked from a small pot in the hallway, didn’t have much flavor. Too subtle for my palate. But for my painting palette, they were just perfect. 🙂

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. 😉

A few folks have asked so here it is: a view of the black radish next to the more commonly seen red radishes. I picked up my first one simply as something new to photograph. I had no idea how it would taste or how to prepare it. When I mentioned this to a friend of Russian ancestry, she shared some of her family’s recipes. Tastes a little bitter but the carrots and red onion add sweetness. Very high in Vitamin C and full of other good stuff. Just what’s needed as we await the next snowstorm. 😉
