"The best kind of rain, of course, is a cozy rain. This is the kind the anonymous medieval poet makes me remember, the rain that falls on a day when you'd just as soon stay in bed a little longer, write letters or read a good book by the fire, take early tea with hot scones and jam and look out the streaked window with complacency." -- Susan Allen Toth, England For All Seasons (The Quote Garden)
It has been raining sporadically during the past 1-2 weeks... then came a moderate downpour one afternoon. When the rain is over, the temperature went down with some fresh and cool breezes flowing into the house. Aaah... it really feels good to be writing again in this cozy weather :-)
Looking out from the house, I saw butterflies fluttering about and birds flying from one plant to another (no pics unfortunately). I noticed a few big blooms of Thunbergia laurifolia still intact and the cuphea plant has begun to blossom a few tiny flowers! Now, where are the bees?
