going green....

Green is a welcome change from grey...
the dominant colour of the recent past.

The sun came out yesterday...
and suddenly everything was green...
vibrant emerald green!

A sunny day makes everything look a little brighter.

I stopped by a neighbourhood greenhouse...
to pick up cuc's...and tomatoes...and peppers.

And I poked my camera inside...
and took a few photos of the greens within.

Warm...lush...and green.
It felt good.


And I met a friend for coffee.
It looks like we both decided to go green!

Today?  Grey.
Have a wonderful weekend...whatever the weather!

  1. It's grey here but I'm headed up Island where I'll have a cup of coffee with a blogger friend.
    That photo of you and your friend - beautiful with both of you in green and that summery cloth between you.
    .....wishing you a little dry sunshine!

  3. Oh I really enjoyed the green yesterday, too. I walked across the yard and thought "this is my favorite time of year for this yard" Everything is just so lush and nice. Looks like a lovely spot to share coffee or tea. Your collage of green is beautiful...

  8. You and your friend look wonderful in green. (I always look a bit ill when I wear it and I love the color green, too. Darn.)

    Yes, a sunny day changes perspective immensely so I'm hoping that there is a sunny weekend in store for you.

    Must get going to the greenhouse myself to find something for my trellises! ;> Thanks for the suggestion.

  10. Do you know what? This morning it was perfectly clear at 6:00am? and by 7:30pm it was already raining.
    Next time let's think blue...no more grey....

  14. I dream of the day that I can peak into a local greenhouse and then produce a mosaic as gorgeous as the one you shared today. I am sitting here smiling. You continually amaze me with your talent. I do also appreciate when bloggers share people pictures. You and your friend look so happy in the picture sharing your coffee together. Beautiful post.
