It’s cold and grey and wet in Cape Town today, folks. Luckily I have these nasturtiums on my kitchen windowsill to add some cheerful colour.
I love nasturtiums because they are so damn persistent and self-reliant. Any flower that manages to grow in my neglected patch of garden (I hesitate to use that word, actually) is a wunder bloom in my book.
And as of today I now also have this:
This is big for me, and not only because it’s also my age. It means there are FIFTY people Out There who were once inclined to click the Follow button and be notified every time I post. I know the world’s population has almost reached 7 billion, but it is still wonderful to me that 50 of those 7 billion people get to be here regularly :-) Perhaps it’s time for another give-away to celebrate?
To be continued…
Jill,
I love your nasturiums and the color of them are wonderful. Congratulations on your 50 followers, I know how you feel about that.
Hugs,
Tamara
Thank you, I was thrilled!
Yay for the followers!! I had forgotten all about nasturtiums… Definitely what my “garden” needs ;)
and they seed themselves, so you don’t even need to plant new ones every year :-)
Congratulations on your 50 followers Jill! I reached the age of 50 in May! Life begins?! x
It would seem so. I turned 50 in October and thought the end of the world was coming, but I’ve experienced such a loosening of all sorts of pressures and anxieties. Maybe it’s a coincidence, but maybe not :-)
Congratulations on your 50 followers! Such an exciting moment :)
It made me very happy. Thanks!
