I don’t know how it all started, but he calls this little corner of trees in our back garden “prison.” And, sometimes he likes to hide back there “in prison” and eat his lunch.
When I went on holiday to the Suffolk coast a few days ago, I hadn’t planned on checking anything off my Life List. But as we drove around the bend on a narrow country road in Suffolk, there it was. A gorgeous field of sunflowers all in bloom. A big bright yellow field of happiness.
The rest of the passengers humored me as we turned the car around and stopped so that I could take some photos. Life list item number 88, done.

P.S. The Nikon was broken and in the shop for repairs so thank goodness I’m not a one camera girl. I did get lots of Polaroid and iPhone shots.
For the past couple of days we’ve enjoyed a bit of the English seaside. Dipping our toes, just barely, into the cold, cold water. There is something completely different about the English seaside compared to the beaches I frequented on the East Coast of America. Besides the colder water and rockier shores, it’s the entire atmosphere, the quirky charm. With its beach huts and arcades, I can’t help but feel like I’ve stepped back in time a bit.
But the sea is still the sea and I do so love to breathe in its salty spray and feel the sun beat down on my face as I wriggle my toes in the sand. Ahhhhhh.

And how about hydrangeas? How quirky (and brilliant) are they to be able to change color based on the soil in which they’re planted?
What color is your favorite?
I am now going to see if I can fit the word “quirky” into every post this week…
