I love coffee, I love tea. I love (fill in the blank) and he loves me.

We used to sing this chant in elementary school.

When I grew up, it turns out I love tea more than coffee and drink it everyday. But, Fill in the blank still loves me, I hope!

Last time I was in Paris, I treated myself to a package of Blue Valentine tea by Mariages Freres, said to be among the finest of French tea producers. The company has been at it since 1854. They surely must know their teas by now.

I’m still working on my video making skills. They are progressing slowly. I made the video below today and set it to music from these two sources.

I hope you like it!

The blue hyacinth was given to me by a friend this week. It goes well with the blue tea!

You just never know what you’ll see next! Have your camera ready at every moment!

I was last there in May of 2017. I hope to return again soon.

It’s definitely coming!

I love the perseverance of these hardy snowdrops! Growing next to concrete in poor soil.

We got a dusting a snow last night and the mountains are covered with record snowfall this year. Some ski resorts will be open thru June!

This is my first winter to spring transition in Denver in over 10 years and I had forgotten how late and weak spring arrives here!

These are the current pictures of what’s happening in my garden. It’s slow, but very welcome!

I’ll get there, eventually!

I’ve always admired beautiful handwriting and love calligraphy. I’ve wanted to try my hand at it and had a chance last weekend, when a local class sprang up.

It’s going to take a lot of practice, buy maybe, just maybe…

I’ve ordered all the necessary supplies, so, will I stick with it?
