Bunches

Instead of each Stella d'Oro lily plant sending out one bloom so I have a row of them, one plant has a bunch of flowers. Evidently it's the chosen flower representative for the collective. I like seeing them in a bunch but I'd like seeing a whole row of pretty yellow flowers more.

And the red day lilies are joining in. I'm a big fan of the bright yellow centers of these flowers and wish they'd bloom for more than one single day.

I went down to Zambaldi Beer to visit DS this morning. He texted that he was brewing if I wanted to come visit. I did! I got to taste the new highly citrus-ed Hazy IPA and also the Malt Liquor that he brewed with another brewery last month. I'm not much of a drinker, hardly ever drink, so having two very small servings of beer in the morning felt very decadent and it wasn't until I was finishing the Malt Liquor that I realized I was going from the brewery to the bank to open that checking account. Oops! And not a breath mint in sight. I drank some water on the way and hoped for the best. The banker didn't throw me out.

For today's drawing I turned to the next two little critters in the Draw Chibis book that DD sent for Mother's Day. I really like the way the giraffe turned out but the panda looks pretty good too.

I thought that I had a good idea for a painting. Turned out I didn't. It's a mess and I'm not putting it on here. It's that bad.

When I was visiting Lala over the weekend she said that she'd been watching Longmire on Netflix. I'm a big fan of the Longmire books so I thought I'd try the series. Now I'm hooked. I spent hours today, HOURS, watching. Not all the hours but a few of them and there are 6 seasons. I'm not through season 1 yet so it wasn't a total binge, just a little one.
