Brother Grasshopper and Sister Bee

Ah yes, a moment in the sun; naked skin in a sunbeam on September 4 at about 20 degrees C. Mr Grasshopper has worked hard to be so big.                           

Ms Bee is still working and brushing pollen onto her hind legs to take back to the hive.

Fresh Turnips

In the photo there is a turnip lurking at the edge of the basket. I put in 6 seeds and 4 sprouted; 2 pairs growing very close together, so each pair has one big turnip and one small. I picked the 2 big ones leaving the others to fatten.               
Living in the moment, I decided to boil a turnip and found it delicious. It does not take, unlike stored ones, long to cook. Very happy with my turnip.

Happiness is not the goal. Happiness is the journey by Thich Nhat Hahn.
A turn I found while digging in the internet.
