CaliforniaPeggy

CaliforniaPeggy
(154,466 posts)No need for forgiveness! It's an exotic sculpture up in the corner of the library's ceiling. It's meant to represent Kelp!
I think it's quite lovely.

(21,111 posts)I love the variety here. So many beautiful, colorful flowers and yummy baked goods. And those clumps of tiny mushrooms are fascinating. I've never seen mushrooms like those before, and It took me a sec to figure out what I was looking at. The shapes and textures in that photo are really fun to look at.
I don't always comment on your farmer's market photos, but I always enjoy them, and this was one of my favorite batches yet.

(154,466 posts)I am happily surprised at your spot-on remarks! Thank you so much!

(154,466 posts)I am lucky! There are several farmer's markets nearby, but I only go to two of them. This one is essential to my shopping needs!

Sharing makes my day.
