Well, I have an iPhone now, so I'm hoping to be better about blogging. :)

Stay tuned for pics from my rambles, and even some stitching news...

I've been taking pictures!

Thanks for hanging around!

The rest of the tree is already fruiting...

Miyazaki sky

These clouds reminded me of those that are seen in the animation of Studio Ghibli, especially "My Neighbor Totoro" or "Spirited Away"...

French breakfast

radishes, that is...
