a red and polka-dotted little visitor on my yellow primrose
a rainbow cake made by Amanda
some rainbow M and M's on my brownies
pink flowers on my counter
and some pink sprinkles there too!
getting ready for the colors of February!
{thank you Doreen @ Fancy That!}
I love these quotes about color written by Georgia O'Keeffe.
{American artist}
"I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way--things I had no words for."
"So I said to myself, I'll paint what I see-what the flower is to me but I'll paint it big and they will be surprised into taking the time to look at it-I will make even busy New Yorkers take time to see what I see of flowers."

SWEET FRIEND!
ReplyDeleteThis is a post that is very dear to me for I need some COLOR IN MY LIFE RIGHT NOW! Oh, I am happy and well, but overwhelmed with grading! HOW ARE YOU DEAR ONE? Oh, the rainbow of love that abounds!!! BE WELL! Anita
Yes it is a great idea Maria. Just the night before last I went through all of my garden photos (there's a lot) and it was so calming and beautiful. On the other hand it made me a bit anxious for spring, but winter is a good time to plan for all of the new colors and beauty soon to come! Love Di ♥
ReplyDeleteGood Saturday morning, dearest Maria. I like your cheery rainbow post a lot. Amanda's cake is awesome! Wish I was that handy too :) Do you know the song by Vicky Brown, look for me in Rainbows? It's a beautiful one.
ReplyDeleteFresh green is popping up in my garden and we are forecast with a whole week of frost. Must take good care of the young ones coming out too early :)
Have a wonderful weekend, Maria!
Your sugar pearls are darling! The colors of February.. I like that <3
Oh dear friend,
ReplyDeleteI LOVE YOUR PHILOSOPHY of a first impression. It is so true. I am sitting here, seeing great progress in some, and very little effort in others. I have told them that they will get back in a grade in conjunction with what they give me. WOOOO are my eyes tired! THANK YOU for coming with YOUR sunshine to visit me. I am worried because someone had told me that they cannot enter my site because of a virus warning that pops up! I see you had no trouble, or did you???
LOVE and GRACE to you my precious friend AND colleague! Anita
Maria ....I send you a picture of Eva with the bib you made in an email . I do not know if it worked for the picture was/is on my phone ...
ReplyDeleteHope it reaches yoy !
Love your rainbowcolours !
Hugs
Such beautiful colors on a dreary rainy Saturday. Makes me want to go find some beautiful colors in my world and take some pictures.
ReplyDeleteDarling friend, I am so grateful that you told me about this virus attack as well! So far, you and two other dear friends came to tell me that they are able to get into my blog....AND YOU ALREADY HAVE ROBINS IN YOUR YARD? Wow, this is an extremely early SEASON of wonder????
ReplyDeleteOh I am almost done with my grading but then on Monday, I have to average out 52 childrens' spelling scores...about 20 scores EACH CHILD! Ahhhhh, what was I NOT THINKING last week!?
MY SINCEREST WISHES to you dear friend for a fine day of listening to our feathered friends. Anita
