Start the day with a zing!
I’m looking at greyness out of the window again, but I’m determined to see colour. It’s Icelandic poppy time of year. How fabulous are these?
I LOVE this one!
Or how about this? Wicked, isn’t it?
Nestled there so prettily
These guys are good too.
Let’s just talk a little flamboyance!
But these really capture my heart
So there you are. Monday doesn’t have to be grey.
Have a good week!

love your soft colours jo … it is grey, drizzling and wintry here … no soft spring touches for us for a few months yet 🙂

Thanks TBM. Wishing you sunshine! 🙂 Who knows what the weather will do for Wimbledon. Do you have tickets?

I don’t have tickets and I was reading about the process of waiting in line the day of. Not sure I want to do that. They suggest getting there hours before they open at 9am. Don’t want to camp out over night just in case I can grab a ticket. We do have tickets to the US Open, but there may be complications and we may have to cancel the trip. Fingers crossed we don’t.

when a challenge comes out, we have all the time till the next challenge by the same challenger? I noticed that when I am even 2 days late, that my number of visitors drastically drops 😀

Saturday will just work well for this one, I’m slow, and black and white isn’t a very appealing medium for me. (take those in no particular order, but you are entirely correct in your observations) 🙂

There is a blue variety that I absolutely love, Tobyo, but I haven’t seen it lately. The “white” one is actually palest pink and quite stunning. Many thanks for all the likes. 🙂
