Still more flowers and Friday Food 04-19-19

I'm just not doing anything much to write about.  KoKo and I walk in the morning and evening and I work at trying to get caught up with everything I have neglected for way too long.  And I am starting to get ready to go to Empty Spools next week.  Meanwhile, everything is blooming and the gentle air is filled with fragrance.  The temps are in the 70s with some 80s, but it seems pleasant on our walks.  The newest issue of "Fiber Art Now" arrived today, so I had to sit down and read it cover to cover.  Beth Smith, former director of Visions Art Museum is the editor and she wrote a nice article about Marty Ornish of San Diego who uses recycled clothing and quilts in her garments.  It is a fiber art publication, not a quilt magazine, but I find all the different fiber work interesting, even it I don't understand a lot of it.  Keep the mind active! 

This isn't a rabbit pie!  It is a peach pie from Polly's Pies and I guess they just duded it up for Easter.  It think it is odd, but I love peach pie; I freeze a slice or two and also share it with my neighbor.  It is very good. Of course, fresh peaches would be better, but I'll have to wait a few months for that special treat. 


I think this is a variety of amaryllis, but not sure.  It is very lovely. 

Looks like a clover flower elongated and the leaves are clover like, but I don't know what it is.  It is cultivated, not wild. 

And my mother's favorite, a lovely white iris with some red roses in the background. 

Here is some more butterfly bush, it is in a lot of yards on the loop that we walk.  Seem to be seeing more butterflies this spring than I usually do.  Maybe they came because of this.
