Flower number 11: love blooming
Happiness is morning light, morning light.
Darling Koko and blooming calendula tea.

Flower number 10: circus trees!
There's a chance you might know Gilroy, CA because it's just south of the bay area, or because it's the last stop on CalTrain. If you are a jazz enthusiast, you might know that it's the birthplace of Ivie Anderson and her beautiful style. What I do know is that anyone who has ever driven through Gilroy, California will immediately remember, no, I mean, smell that it is "The Garlic Capital of the World". But, something I found out, on my recent return to the central coast, was that it's also home to Circus Trees.
Once the enchanted creation of "tree-shaper" Axel Erlandson, the beautiful living pieces of art were fostered and adopted by architect Mark Primack. Read all about it, or travel to the agricultural center of the world, on the central coast of California, and see these fun trees for yourself at Gilroy Gardens.
Not a circus tree, but definitely a good one:
And yes, Ferdinand would be pleased to see there are even Spanish Corks.

Flower number 6 :: let them eat cake and punch
This reminds me of a fun weekend with friends last September. Let
Them Eat Cake and Punch.
It's my Marie Antoinette paper cut birthday
card for Nikki (left) and stylized photo of the birthday girl, herself (right).
Flower number 1 :: The First Flower for Ferdinand
The first flower I have for Ferdinand is an oldie.
I love winter break because it means time away from, time to miss, and extra time to snuggle up with, Jasper and Koko. I read a bunch of different opinions on the interwebs about how long is too long for kitties without a human companion, but I had to settle with an auto-feeder and friend check-in combo, during my week away. They snuggled up quite a bit when I came home.
This is a small, acrylic portraiture I made of them a couple of years back.
I guess it's old-mews.
