Daily Notes- May 22nd. Saturday. Cloudy with a chance of Iris Blooming in the back garden.


 Busy Saturday Morning.  Out early to see if I could snag a book from the Express section.  No. Then grocery to pick up husband's prescriptions.  And raisin bagels for myself-  I was toasting one and- well, we have a real smoky odor in the house that I can't quite get rid of. Over toasted bagel.

The Beauty up top is Wo Peng's first blossom of 2021.  Chinese Tree Peony.  Wo Peng is growing very very slowly.  His ID tag said that by now he should be 20 feet tall and wide.  He isn't.  He's not even TWO feet tall or wide.  But he's still alive and making his five flowers each year. You go, Wo Peng!!!!

I was looking out the back window and- two iris are there- tall with flowers.  Appearing after about 15 years absence.  It's like an out of mind experience looking at the garden these days.  Take down ten trees and look what happens- flowers reappear.

I have no idea how I will be spending my day.  What I will do.  Yesterday I sliced up the rhubarb so I could quite possibly make a pie.  I could.  And we would really love having pie.  But- with the clouds moving in and the house being dark-  I am thinking a nice nap sounds so much more likely.  And later a nice salad.  Or just my yogurt with Bran Buds.  (the grocery has been completely out of Bran Buds since the day I snagged my one box- I am wondering why???)

My head is empty.  No words for you.  Will be reading- How to Fail At Flirting-  From my pile of Rom Com books.  I am actually loving reading these books.  They make me laugh.  We'll see how this one goes.
