squares & birds & worms

[squares series | reflections series]

Good morning!

How are you? Did you have a pleasant weekend or perhaps it was rainy where you are? It stormed here last night and it's still grey out. And I will say the coffee smells really good to me. I was up late updating the shop to coincide with the launch of the new Poppytalk Handmade Market, "Mixed Tape". It really does look like a fun mix. It's exciting to be part of it, thanks Jan!

We saw a pair of yellow warblers yesterday out our kitchen window while eating brunch. [At least I think that's what they were. I got out my little birds of Kansas book to check.] I thought of Shari. We've also been seeing some American Goldfinches, perching atop our echinacea, eating the seeds. Seeing that yellow always makes me gasp!

I like these worms, don't you?

I hope you have a nice day. I'm going to pour another cup of coffee and head up to the studio.
