105/365 Sprouts

105/365 Sprouts

“Dinner Sprouts” I wish the sprouts that I had photographed today were sprouting plants in my garden.  Sadly, I have planted nothing.  I was feeling OK about that last week when we had temperatures in the upper 30’s.  Today the high temperature was 90.  This is good garden weather.  I guess I will break down and buy some plants rather than starting from seeds.  I’m not sure when that is going to happen. Since I had no sprouting plants, I…

104/365 Stairs

104/365 Stairs

“Stairway to Heaven” This is not “my” church; it is Oak Lawn United Methodist Church in Dallas, the church that kindly allows Resounding Harmony to rehearse in their sanctuary.  I like the red steps and the places where the paint and the concrete are worn.  I like the way the steps lead to the doors.  Even the lens flare is starting to grow on me. This is a beautiful building.  When I saw the the prompt of “stairs” fell on a…

103/365 Feature

“Yes, It’s Natural” It’s that time of the month again.  No, no THAT time, although I hate it almost as much.  Today was the day for April’s self-portrait.  This month we were supposed to focus on a specific feature of ourselves.  I asked Weber what I should do.  His first suggestion was one for which the photos would have been inappropriate for a public blog.  The alternative was my hair. When you have hair the color of mine it becomes a…

102/365 A Touch of Yellow

102/365 A Touch of Yellow

“Herbs” I think today’s prompt was intended to be a nod to spring with a touch of yellow coming from spring flowers.  None of our outdoor flowers are yellow and I used my indoor cut flowers for yesterday’s prompt so I was kind of stuck today.  So here are some fresh herbs waiting to be minced and placed in the prep bowls. Bonus Yellow Picture! “A Pucker and a Smile” Knowing that today’s prompt was a touch of yellow, Weber…

101/365 Overgrown

Sorry I forgot to post this yesterday! “Flower Power” Weber and Brooke went to Sam’s Wednesday night while I was at choir.  They had what I thought was a short list, but Brooke seemed to add to the list on each aisle so they came home with quite a few items that they had not originally intended.  One of those items was a bouquet of flowers for me.  I love fresh flowers on the dining room table.  They don’t have…

100/365 One Hundred

100/365 One Hundred

“One Hundred Cents” I remember when the girls were little and they celebrated the 100th day of school by taking one hundred items to school to share with their classmates.  One hundred pennies, paperclips, M&Ms, stickers, erasers, and so on.  When it came time for me to come up 100 somethings for my own project, I had to think hard.   Today became a music theorist’s idea for 100. Yes, I know that the piano has 88 keys, not 100….

98/365 Pastel

98/365 Pastel

“Los Pasteles” Accomplishing today’s prompt was a family affair.  I was whining about not having anything pastel to photograph.  I am definitely a bright colors kind of girl.  Weber, the sometimes Spanish teacher said, “Pastel means cake in Spanish.”  Brooke, the pastry chef said, “I can make cake.”  Me, the photographer said, “I can take pictures of cake.”  So here you have it – los pasteles with pastel strawberry, blueberry and matcha icing.

96/365 Morning Light

“Morning Light” Today was a great day, but very busy so there wasn’t much time to give to a picture of morning light this morning.  This weather was beautiful though and I did drink a little coffee on the back patio.
