I only saw there was a bug in here once I got the picture up on my laptop. (I was playing with the point-and-shoot today, which doesn’t have a view finder – it’s a great little camera for shoving in weird places and then being surprised at the results.)

question of the day: is there such a thing as too much strawberry rhubarb pie? your thoughts, please.

Never had strawberry rhubarb pie, but would love to try it, recipe?
Love your close-ups, (your point-n-shoot gets that close? Cool!)
Maybe we should make this an OC - Flowers - Up Close and Personal..hmmm...
These are dreamlike creations, Sarah, I always, feel a shiver inside, when I watch natures beauty . Bravo
