Maaah-vaah-luss!

One needn’t look very hard to find tales of misery and tragedy these days. Thanks to today’s loveletter it wasn’t difficult to find a heartwarming and uplifting story to set the tone in my mind to focus more on such reading.

Where did you “snap” the tomato plant? (Snap is a hanger-on from when we used Brownies to take snapshots...) The blue sky background is a fine pairing with the yellow tomato blossoms. The colors of Ukraine’s flag.

The quote from Isaac Newton exhibits both humility and an acknowledgment of our interdependence. Bravissimo!

Thank you for your appreciation!

Tomato plant is growing in pot on our deck. :)

I considered that location. After your earlier comments about not wanting to allocate time for “deck adornment” I ruled that out. Then again, as tomatoes are fruit bearing plants, having a fruit plant on the deck could warrant an exception! 👍

Good memory!

I have taken no responsibility for the tomato plant, nor the veggie garden “down below”. Greg’s got them in his hands.

Why am I thinking of the Little Red Hen?! I hope he lets me have some. 😂

Surely he will. The fires of creativity and humanity constantly informing your life can’t go unnoticed. To the benefit of you both. Besides, I see you preparing insalata caprese! Maybe a warm, crusty baguette from the oven. Accompanied by a glass of “nose-y” chianti. 🤷🏽
