The late Black-eyed Susans are opening. The plant next to this one has stems with centers and no petals left while this plant has buds that are unfurling petals. I appreciate the timing.
The bronzey sedum attracts bees and flies just like the pink one. There's a drastic color difference but evidently not a flavor difference.
Another of the Stella d'Oros bloomed today.
I looked out this evening to see the light had turned golden so I grabbed the camera and hurried out to take a picture. I was surprised to see that the horizon was clear and the setting sun was lighting up the cloud cover above.
I spent a bit of today knitting on the Comfort Baby Blanket and it feels like I didn't make any progress at all. I know that I knitted a few rows but it seems like nothing changed. Maybe I only imagined knitting...
Today's toss was a pair of cookbooks, one is a crockpot cookbook that has wonderful recipes but none I can easily adapt to WW and the other has crazy recipes for making novelty "cakes" with crispy rice cereal.
The prompt today asked what you would like more of. I said willpower. I'm really struggling to stick to my food plan lately. I eat the meals and then everything else. Next week nothing will be WW so I'll have to clamber back onto the straight and narrow when I get home.
It was so chilly in the house when I woke up today that I turned on the furnace to take the chill off and spent the day wearing leggings and a hoodie. I should have put on socks too. I don't think it got up to 70 degrees today.

Love that sunset picture. The colors are like those in the baby blanket. I made a cake with Twinkies one time for Beach Week. I bet that recipe was in your crazy cakes cookbook.
