Happy St Nicholas Day!

The winter jasmine is gorgeous, it would cheer anyone :)

Thank you!

From now on, I will make a point of looking, even if I just go out to the bins. Small things.

Winter Jasmine

When you said the flowers lifted your spirits, it brought to mind a favorite Robert Frost poem.

Dust of Snow

BY ROBERT FROST
The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree

Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.

Glad you like it. I think this must be its best year so far.
