2009 Journal Cover
Sharpening the Claws or, A Downward Cat?
Colorblast Bouquets
Then I had to grab this shot of an arrangment just finished by the shopkeeper... the island on which they are sitting was directly under a skylight and the rays of the sun were fabulously highlighting their spiky heads...
And then, amongst a slew of Mirror, Mirror Challenge possiblities for August, I captured this blurry, Monet-inspired collage of color:
All photos were taken at my all time favorite Marin florist -- Hearts and Flowers -- in Tiburon...celebrating 30 years of providing the locals with flower candy!

Pink Lady Strawberry Cake
Nana's Recipe Book (showing a photo of her, her brownceramic squirrel,and a clipping of a "Kentucky Whiskey Cake".)
in which her mother, my Nana, had pulled together all of her treasured recipes. Although the recipe came from the Louisville newspaper, I have a hand written recipe she gave me as well. It looks so homey, what with her vintage handwriting, and the cooking stains.
Nana's Handwritten Pink Lady Strawberry Cake Recipe (with evidence of prior use!)
A Slice of Pink Heaven (from Amy E.'s Made in Mississippi blog)
...and the buttercream frosting has a lovely pink color from the addition of thawed frozen strawberries. For a homemade from scratch strawberry cake recipe without the in-the-box ingredients go to this post from Latest Addiction's blog.
