Spring Bulbs

 Now it is time to celebrate the simple pleasures of spring.

Spring bulbs always brighten the spirits after a long dreary winter.  Especially as they brave the snows and keep their pretty heads up even as winter refuses to fade away, quietly oblivious to the storms of nature and human emotion.

A field of Iris histrioides Katherine Hodgkin makes my heart sing every single day and is a fabulous pay-out for the hours spent planting hundreds of bulbs.  Would that all effort yielded such glorious results.

  • I used to think of myself as continually distracted, but that is far from the truth. The truth is that I find the world to be filled with fascinating things that capture my attention. When I am doing something I love, be it reading a book, listening to music, sewing, knitting, learning something new, or just daydreaming, I am so totally focused that the intrusion of the world comes as something of a shock. There are so many things pulling at my hearstrings, so many things in which to lose myself, so many things tempting away from my one true passion ..... of the moment. I want to explore them all. Despite these changing passions, there are some constants in my affections: sewing, knitting, style and clothing, music, food. These are the main topics I will consider here, although there will be digressions and explorations as well.
