5yo asserted that something or other was 'for girls' the other day. I came down on that hard. "Everything is for everybody!" I said. I guess it stuck. Yesterday, I painted my 8yo son's nails cherry red at his request, and today blue. And now, without further ado. Flowers. Leaves. I like the way light shines through them. I'm a good photographer: I take a bunch of pictures on each auto setting and hope that one of them can be Photoshopped into submission. I think this one was taken on the 'kids/pets' setting.

Hee! My toes are bright turquoise at the moment. Everything for everyone!

And I love the poppies. The don't want to grow at my house; not enough sun I think :(

Hear! Hear! :)

Do you have lots of shade in your garden space?

Except for the hanging baskets at the front of my house, I pretty much have all shade in my garden. It has occasionally occurred to me that a vampire would do well at casa zanthine!

Yes, the light really does look nice filtering between the poppies and those woolly pink plants that I have as a volunteer in my yard.

Rose Campion/Bloody William does volunteer readily. I hardly need more, but I can't help but like that about it. :)

The poppies reseed too, actually! And so does that lavender thing in the background. Hurray for free plants.

Also, if you google 'bloody William', Spike is the second entry, and the bright pink things are the third. It must be a sign.

I'm glad to hear it! I tend to imagine people rolling their eyes at more such pics showing up on their flist.

Purples and red and pinks - luscious to look at!
