Camelias in the snow?

 

 

The garden is about to get a winter wake-up call. I cut these camelia blooms yesterday and noticed all the bulbs poking up in the flower beds, thinking spring is just around the corner. 

It is actually, but first we have to get through this bitter cold stretch. The forecast for snow is anything from zero to 10 inches, which would be a catastrophe in Seattle. Don't laugh, you easterners.


  "Curiouser and curiouser!"

  BTW. January 10th is Peculiar People Day: 

  • Recognize that there are strange and peculiar people in your life.
  • Engage in conversation with peculiar people. Chances are, they have many interesting qualities, too. 
  • Look for good qualities in everyone you meet.
  • Recognize that a peculiar trait can actually be an asset in certain situations. Gain appreciation for this fact. 
  • Determine if you are peculiar in any way. Most of us have at least one odd thing about us Then, spend a few minutes to identify how it can be used in a positive way.
